Writing, scrapbooking, painting, collaging...these are all passions of mine.
"Inside you there's an artist you don't know about...Say yes quickly, if you know, if you've known it from before the beginning of the universe." -Jalai Ud-Din Rumi
I create because it relaxes me. It takes me back to a simpler time. A time when I could just be me.
Thomas Mann - “Solitude gives birth to the original in us, to beauty unfamiliar and perilous - to poetry."
I write to hear my voice. To figure out where it is I'm going...
To me, the greatest pleasure of writing is not what it's about, but the inner music the words make. ~Truman Capote, McCall's, November 1967
I am happy.
I am content.
I am living an authentic life.
How 'bout me?? Let's see... I scrap to relax, I scrap to preserve my thoughts. When I journal, I feel so much better, yet don't take enough time out to journal. But you're right...feeding the creative soul in ourselves makes for a happy, content BEing.
