Taking a deep breath.


I have been an infrequent blogger.

These past two months have been some of the hardest months of my life. I forced myself to live a lie. I recently ended a relationship that was draining me. This relationship left me with nothing to give to myself. The little bits that I possessed, I had to give to almost strangers, my patients.

There has been a lack of art. I should have seen just by that how sick I really was. If I look back on my life the periods that there was little art were the most unsatisfying times of my life. Times that I just wasn't the authentic me.

That is all over now.

I can feel my soul waking up, the burning in my fingers to create has started again. That is what art has always been to me, a deep burning desire to create that if unfulfilled would rip me apart. It is my soul in an tangible way. It is the physical evidence of

my spirituality.

It is so good to be at peace.

Now my soul can heal.

  2. Karen,

    When it comes to decisions of the heart just because you know it's the right thing doesn't mean it's the easy thing.

    My thoughts are with you!
