4 months and 50

A pleasant interlude via a neighbor's garden.
Art, job, taxes, money, love. I have a lot of love in my life, my job keeps me busy and will bring in money to pay the taxes. Art is always there but not always active.

I've been pondering the fact that if I choose to forgive my parents and other people in my past, then what I'm left with is that I'm in control of and responsible for my life.  Me, alone.  Sigh.  What a big responsibility.

As I look around at my messy office, studio, house, finances and realize it's all my own doing, I kind of want to hide under the covers and not come out.  The good news is that it's all fixable!

That's what I've been thinking about as I turn 50 and 1/3 years old next week.  I do have a goal to have some art made by the end of August.  Three weeks? We'll see!
