A Defining Moment

Topics: Studio Notes


My life took a detour this year. Health issues stopped me in my tracks. For those who have so faithfully prayed and sent encouraging emails, I thank you.

I still have no answers and the health issues persist. This really hit me hard...emotionally as well as physically. In fact I think the emotional part has proven to be the most difficult to overcome.

I've felt better physically for sometime...but have found it difficult to get back in the swing of things. I haven't blogged or sent a newsletter because I really didn't have anything to talk about except my illness, and it had been magnified enough.

I believe that what we see, hear, and speak effects who we are. If you say a word often enough it becomes you. I had allowed this to happen...I had become my disease. Not to say that what is going on is not serious...I just don't want it to dominate my life any more. I don't want it to be who I am.

When I do have real news or this health issue is resolved...I will let you know. In the mean time, I need to get on with more positive, enriching thoughts and projects.

I have several layouts done for both drawings and paintings and of course lots of ideas in my head. There also are at least two firm commissions waiting for my attention.

I am back...perhaps not as regular as before, but I AM HERE and thankful to be able to say it.

Hi Marsha,
I am so sorry about your illness and I thought you were getting well but have not heard anything on my blog or emails. I pray that you will be doing better and this health issue will be in the past.
A cheerful heart doeth good like medicine. Proverbs 17:22.
With love,
Ruth

Hi, I came over here from the pearathon to tell you how lovely your pear drawings are. So sorry to hear about your illness. I have sensitivity to gluten and hope that whatever you have is getting better. I'm sending positive vibes from Bastrop, TX. Take care,
Jo

Ruth....Thank you for your kind words and prayer. I hope to blog more regular as time goes by.

Jo....The problem is they don't know what the problem is? I tried a gluten free diet for 30 days and saw no improvement. Thanks for the visit to my blog and the nice comments about my pear drawings. I found the 'pearathon' by accident an so enjoyed seeing what the other artists had done...a great idea.
