December is here and the selling season for Ebay is nearly at it's seasonal end.The Yule tree has been decorated for the celebration, as the wheel of the year turns and the solstice will soon begin.
This month always brings me to the shutting down of my creative persecutes with anticipation of the "New Year, New Start" mentality as it seems. And as I sit back with a book in my comfy chair, tending the fire that burns in the fireplace, watching flames dance, as if in their own sort of celebration, across the logs, I dream of the many things I drew out in my tablet but never had time to either finish or start to create, I am always reminded of how time flies past when you are forced to sell yourself for an hourly wage to keep above the fast moving waters that rush our lives along.
Pretty soon I will endure, yet another birthday and I really have to wonder where this river of motion is taking me. I enjoy my life and the ability I have to not only be successful in my work but to create my primitive artistry which supplements my income, or at least pays for all the junk I purchase to afford to craft my days away. And then I have to wonder. . . What! Is the question? As I look back through my picture albums of the things spirit has guided me to create, I am filled with a child like wonder...it's one of gratitude and unconditional love for the forces that push me along this path, being ever so grateful for sooo many wonderful things in my life. I soulfully appreciate every healthy day I spend, mindlessly crafting, staying in the present and loving the gifts of this life.
So as I anticipate another year of learning, growing and expressing myself through my primitive artistry my heart swells with the excitement and wonder to see what gifts are laid before me in the year come. I'll look forward to it and start my planning with great pleasure as this will be one spectacular year indeed. 2012!!! WOW!!!
