So, this post has nothing to do with my art endeavour. It is about me making changes about how I do things in life. For ages, and for some mysterious reason, I felt that our next door neighbors were annoyed with us. Seriously. I am so ridiculous. Anyway, this has bothered me for ages. FINALLY, I got up the gumption to go over and knock on their door to ask them about it. The lady had NO idea what I was talking about. We had a lovely conversation for 20 minutes, and ended with a friendly wave and a “goodbye”. This first part, of me jumping to inane conclusions, is so typical for me. The second part, where I actually try to confront these theories, is atypical. I would normally wonder about this, without actually testing my hypothesis. Trust me, I know how dumb this is. Can you see how challenging I make things in life, when this is my typical strategy for dealing with such matters? Anyway, I wanted to write a post about it, as I felt that it was a slight shift for me in a better direction. No, this had nothing to do with art, but it was a small success for me! I know…so ridiculous!

Don’t you see?! This is all a part of your amazing metamorphosis? You made it through the caterpillar stage and into a chrysalis but it’s taken this long for the beautiful butterfly to emerge:

Can’t wait to see how beautiful the world will be now. Keep soaring Tiger Swallowtail!
So true!!! I wish that I was progressing faster, but some is better than none!
Comment by slightlywonky November 28, 2010 @ 8:02 pmI can just see your face when you were asking your neighbor if she was annoyed with you. How freeing to have that cleared up! I am amazed and impressed that you faced it head on. It’s no small thing.
By the way, I am also amazed at how prolific you seem to be! Is it just pouring out of you?
