passion



I've been a bit slow this week, disheveled and unorganized.. As I look at my life and see all the things going on, it makes sense I can't keep it all straight.

The Edmonds Art Festival was a lot of fun. I met several new people and saw many old friends, thanks so much for stopping by.

I hadn't done a 3 day show in a long long time, I think 4 years. And oh how I forgot how absolutely exhausting they are. Wow!! Standing, out in the elements 10-12 hours a day. I don't know, that you will be seeing me at a 3 day show anytime soon.

Right now I am shipping off a new order of jewels to Atticus in Madison, Wi. Check out their website. They have a great online store.

And I am getting ready to go to France and Spain for a month.. An exciting new adventure! I'll keep you updated as I find out more, but right now, what I do know is it involves shooting a movie in S. France.

I have been thinking a lot about passion lately.. Passion in the sense of excitement for something. As I observe my passions and have seen them shift over the years, I realize, passion is what makes me flow. It motivates me, it keeps me going and excited about life.

I think about the limited time in life, and how much I have wasted on worrying about the mundane. I think we all have opportunities and choices and I think if we open our hearts and minds and let those opportunities arise and make choices that lead us to the unknown, our lives can be full of passion and excitement... What are your passions?
