Starting over-High Hopes!

So you might have noticed I have been creatively absent online for the past 5 months. I have been posting more lately. There has been much ado about a lot of changes. Since I am typically a very private person I will give you this synopsis. When it comes to my illustration career I have taken a bit of a creative sabbatical. I will chat more about that some other time. However, this time has been good for my writing. It's a quiet process and I can just spill my ideas, my thoughts, my feelings, my happy moments and also my moments where I feel very heavy hearted. Despite the big changes that have been going on there are good times too.

Starting over is NOT easy. My decoder ring did not come with that function and my manual got lost in the mail unfortunately. What has all this taught me? To focus on what I can control. To focus on what is important. To keep those around me that support me and that time is a very very precious thing. I have also learned the concept of 'NO' which is really hard! Another thing that I learned time makes happy mediums-they don't happen overnight.

Starting over is not about being perfect... trust me. However, it teaches you who your real friends are and those who needs to be shipped off to Easter Island. And lastly, starting over means many late nights and lots of coffee! I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and I can honestly say it's not dragon this time! High hopes right? Right! :)
