This holiday break has brought awareness to a new found sense of clarity and calm. Doing nothing has allowed me to take stock of this moment in time and I am very grateful for this pause, this time out, from the previous intensity.
The biggest surprise has been related to starting to paint. Painting has filled a space in my life. That act of creation is something that has been missing all along. It is what I have needed and filling that need is allowing other things to fall into place.
It is the oddest thing. For the first time, probably the first time ever, I actually know what I want to do.
