{Obstacle in the Road}
Tuesday, September 4, 2012 at 6:40PM 
I know that there are times in every artist's creative life when they encounter an unexpected OBSTACLE. When it seems that the way is blocked by unmovable objects. It happens to everyone. Nonethless, when it happens to you, it seems you are the only one - EVER.
I hit that obstacle recently. One that made me sit back and re-evaluate. I asked myself questions that start with "Why..." and "What if...". Part of my struggle is that I live in THE STICKS. It can be very isolating. My dearest friends, support system and COMMUNITY live far from me. I was stuck and I was alone. Of course, there are phones and texts but I LONGED for eye to eye, heart to heart, soul to soul contact with my peeps that know me and love me. I needed advice, lifting up and brushing off.
Today, I traveled down the long road and met up with my dear friends who I can count on and whom can count on me. We laughed, we planned and we found solutions to what seemed insurmountable OBSTACLES. I drove back down my road uplifted and re-inspired.
I do this because I love it and my art/my craft fills my life with joy. I love sharing it with you. So, join me as I RECONNECT with the very essence of what brings me delight.
It is going to be a WONDER-FILLED journey!
