I haven't been visiting blogs much lately, thought I'd do some today, as a reward--I'm clicking on your link, thinking, "Jessie always is so inspiring, can't wait to see what she's up to," and the first words I see are...<BR/><BR/>"Fuck it."<BR/><BR/>Well! Inspiring is maybe not the right word, but you may have hit the nail on the head!

It's so hard to find that balance between a work you're passionate about and living.<BR/><BR/>I'm trying, but I still find myself either working too much or not enough.<BR/><BR/>But then, I've learned things about balance otherwise. There is no static balance, it's always changing and mutating and that might BE the balance. Balance in motion, in action. A little too busy a little too lazy, A little too much work, a little too much play, like a dance.<BR/><BR/>I'm intending to find a good routine as a working artist and mom who still has time to just live. It's really hard. <BR/><BR/>Will I look back on this period as a lovely time of productivity and grapefruit trees? Will you look back on this time as a time of giving and painting? Is this "success?"Rowenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07146077261663557342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352133.post-56028546609571188502009-03-28T06:12:00.000-05:002009-03-28T06:12:00.000-05:00Brava, my dear, thanks for the inclusion and shari...Brava, my dear, thanks for the inclusion and sharing....<BR/>Sometimes all we need is a little bit of blind faith and trust!peyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00233649379108848119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352133.post-72112150227941437022009-03-28T00:27:00.000-05:002009-03-28T00:27:00.000-05:00Well. drinking tea and reading sounds pretty doabl...Well. drinking tea and reading sounds pretty doable, at least. ;^)<BR/><BR/>Recharge your batteries, kiddo.

That was really sweet of you :). I think everyone is in overdrive right now. You should read my blog post from Monday? It was all about this yucky feeling -- right after you've been working like crazy. It's the story of my life! <BR/><BR/>Pey's work is gorgeous -- thank you for sharing!! And to-do lists -- I think I'm the queen. I actually took a picture earlier today of all of them. I was going crazy just looking at them so I decided that they needed to go into a neat little pile and sit somewhere other than my desk! I feel so much calmer with all the open space. Yes the lists still exist and need to get done -- but they'll have to wait until tomorrow :).Carolynhttp://abeautifulrippleeffect.com/noreply@blogger.com
