Insignificance

Most of the time I feel quite insignificant. We all love to feel validated, I suppose, but lately I haven't even taken the time to blog because I have just been feeling so small in a competitive world of such fabulous artists! Every time I am asked to contribute to an art format, I think to myself, "ME" they're asking "ME?" Why would they ask ME? Well, we need to just ask ourselves...."Why NOT me?" We all have something wonderful to offer. Especially in the ART WORLD! Its all about different perspectives. Different ideas that will hopefully cause an emotion in someone. Something that is beautiful, or maybe not so beautiful, but will make a person stop and think!
CREATE SOME ART TODAY!!!!! MAKE THE WORLD STOP, if only for a minute or two...and THINK!

Goodness

I always try to see the goodness in people. I know it's in there, way deep inside even if it doesn't seem like it on the surface. Give someone the benefit of the doubt today. They are very likely to possess that quality, give them a chance. Love somebody, unconditionally today!

In the zone...

Don't you just love when you feel like you're in THE ZONE! You know what I'm talking about! You feel as though you are just one with the world and all it has to offer.

That's what I'm feeling today! It didn't start off that way...however it ended up that way!

That is the wonderful thing about a day...you never know what it might bring!

Art

I think ALL art is subjective...it's something that speaks to us deep within our souls and hits a chord, but that is the beauty of it.

I love quotes that inspire me

“We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will.”

Chuck Palahniuk

 

Live each day to the fullest!

“To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.”

How great is that quote!

Good Morning America!!!

You won't even believe what's happened! I kept thinking I was going to be "punked"! But NO, it's true! Me and my family are going to be on GOOD MORNING AMERICA on Sunday morning, December 21st at 6:00 AM, West coast time. 8:00 AM EST. The segment is featuring my family and homemade gifts for Christmas! Michele Beschen (of HGTV and DIY Network fame) came to my house.....to MY house with an ABC film crew! Together we made the most spectacular gift for my daughter Mackenzie, for Christmas! It is STUPENDOUS!!! You'll have to watch Good Morning America to find out what's inside! So don't miss it! Set your DVR's!

If, by chance you happen to miss it.....stay tuned to my blog. I will be revealing what's in the big, big present after Christmas when my daughter opens her gift. Sunday is also Mackenzie's birthday! My baby is turning 9. Goes by way too fast!

I LOVE how the gift is almost bigger than the tree!!!!
