Motherhood

I'm kind of realizing that there's alot of freedom in knowing that hardly anyone is reading my blog yet and that it's essentially a hot mess because it allows me to not worry about it and play a little. I thought I'd just share something with you that pretty much sums it all up for me about being a mother. I don't think there is anything else as sacred as being called Mama.

O.k so it's quite obvious that i'm still trying to figure out this blogging thing! I'm so sad because I really want to create a beautiful blog and I really have no idea what i'm doing. Anyway I promise someday soon it will happen but for now I thought I'd try to post some pics of the Nyack Festival . It was the most amazing day, it was so wonderful to actually talk to the people who where buying my art. They were so amazing and it was such a possitive experience.


I promise i'll be back soon with better pics and alot to talk about!

My rebellion against practicality

 I've been rebelling since I was a very little girl, not against anyone, against an idea. The idea that we have to do or be anything other than who we are. I was finding myself in debates with almost every adult I knew about how I couldn't just do whatever crazy thing I was doing at the time like( I would love to run outside when it rained and just sit on my front lawn and close my eyes so I could feel it, really feel it.) My parents were horrified, what will the neighbors think? I find that at 37 years old people are still telling me you can't just do that or be that. I'm here to say, yes you can. I have been for my whole life and I am truly happy. You see I don't do practical, I do magical! I wanted to be an artist for as long as I can remember but art school didn't appeal to me (remember I don't like rules very much ) it didn't seem right for me. I felt like i'd have to waste so much precious time taking classes that didn't interest me but I decided to see for myself  so I took a few art classes at the local college , I was right, it wasn't for me. I decided I'd be an artist anyway right now, not in 5 or 6 years but right now. You decide, it's your journey, you create the life you want. It's not about finding out who we are, it's about creating and becoming who we want to be! It actually happens the minute you change your perspective, the moment you realize that it's really that easy. Be right now who you've always wanted to be. I promise you'll thank yourself for the rest of your life.
