Gardens In The Grass


Gardens In The Grass, originally uploaded by Uncommon Depth.

I am back home after a couple of days at Fibre Week. It is always a delight to catch up with old friends, and to meet new ones as well. This year I noticed a theme to many conversations of how things fell into place perfectly for people in key moments in their life.

Several people were recounting significant events in their life and about how easily things had all come together. I always enjoy the people so much that I tend to do the "am I making the right decision" thinking; in regards to which art I should chose priority for. The fibre work or photography.

Then I came home to an inquiry about a commissioned piece for a San Francisco hotel, and news that I'd be getting paid for the Planet Earth exhibition. Serendipity? Makes one think that maybe life does have a grand scheme after all if you listen close enough.

There is always a grand scheme if we bother to show up, and shush our Self to stay and listen to it.
So many times however, we become our own Saboteur instead. That sword of wisdom is to cut down the weeds to continue our path, not for self infliction. All your talents can bounce and blend together however, and whenever you choose.

Well played.

Wonderful image here Roberta!

And, ... good luck with the hotel project.
Those are fun to work with in my opinion.

I love it when that happens.
I also love that darling viola -- perfect to go with the theme of today's post. I bet most people have no idea how incredibly tiny that viola actually is. Lovely
