I love that tomorrow's page is blank and holds so many possibilities.

Today a woman called and asked me what to do when the creativity is completely gone...all inspiration for art is gone.

Just today I thanked the Lord that He made me a woman with so many emotions to stumble through, the blue lowlands create gratefulness for the peaks.

In the end it comes down to waiting, because it will pass and tomorrow will be new.

In the middle of my day I came across these words.   I scribbled them quickly in my moleskin, next to my to do  list for today.

"I want to surprise myself

by loving something new,

something that stretches my idea of myself

into a new shape

I want to read my favorite poem

and find an idea entirely unexpected in it,

one that only this moment could have revealed."  --Jane Flanagan

Her words resonated with me because I feel that almost every day and often God just wants me to be patient with the "ordinary business of living" instead of constantly striving for the new.
