Quieter Than Usual


I may be quieter than usual
for the next few days
because I'm away from home,
partaking in a painting workshop.

"Edge of Passion" copyright 2009 Meri Arnett-Kremian.

On the other hand,
I might be able upload "process" photos
on my laptop and publish a few short posts
in the evenings

that is
if I'm not too exhausted
from making all those creative decisions.

I might just go back to the hotel and fall asleep
as soon as I wash off all the paint
and jump between the sheets.

We'll see.

Hi Meri,

Love the photo. So, a painting workshop sounds like a lot of fun. How would I go about finding something like that for myself? Where would I being to look?

I hope you have lots of fun and unleash tons of creative expressions.

I brought the camera, but forgot the laptop and the media cable. You'll have to wait for pictures, but they're coming I promise.

Sometimes Things Aren't What They Seem

Sometimes things aren't what they seem. We settle in somewhere, thinking it's going to be safe and hospitable and just what we hoped for, a magical haven that provides us shelter from harm. Then reality sets in and we realize that we were mistaken. That soft place to land turns out to be quite a bit less soft than we'd anticipated. In fact sometimes things get downright hard and cold and unforgiving. Not at all what we expected. Do we stay and make the best of it or fly away to build a new nest somewhere else? Sometimes the most valuable lessons come from learning to see the beauty right in front of your eyes. Sometimes we bloom most gloriously when we learn to thrive just where we are and come to love just what we have. Maybe each of us is exactly where we need to be, learning lessons custom-made for us.

Haiku My Heart: May the Fourth Be With You

Image
Haiku My Heart i invite you to imagine living in peace one day at a time I have to admit that I'm finding it hard to celebrate the birthday of my country having declared its independence from Mother England, when the country was founded on institutionalized slavery, the idea that white men were created equal but but black men were less than and women weren't even considered.
