had I stayed in my marriage under the low ceiling of "Be A Good Girl", an imposition imposed from childhood and introjection. For a while, it garnered my complicity.

Metamorphosis
And skeletal reorganization:
It Doesn't Fit Anymore - Realigning With Core Again
I embarked on a closet-editing project forcing myself to let go of some beautiful, fun clothing that no longer suited my lifestyle. This piece with the multi-colored background emerged from that process. I think it's best to hang it near a closet full of stuff as a reminder.
It Doesn't Fit Anymore
I've learned that sometimes I have to let go of people, places and things in order to realign with my true self.
Good Question
What is the one area of my life that if I put all my energy and focus into it, I would be at peace with myself, the world and everyone in it?
Clearly, the answer is my art.
Words I Can Relate To

Ode To The Breath
On the inhale take me in, way in, oh so slowly, deeply and completely. Feel my energy, my enthusiasm, my hope, my creation, my inspiration, my love, my power, and revel in the gratitude of the energetic moment. Truly honor the magnificence of the breath of life. Breathe ever so deeply so that never again do you falter in the face of self-doubt and confusion. I am here all the time and available to experience each moment. Now, let me out. Exhale slowly, deeply and completely. Exhale all that does not work and all that is an impediment to the expression of all that you are. You are so much! You have so much to offer. It's right here waiting for you to access it all, all the abundance, surely that is your divine right. Inhale the life energy and exhale the residue and then take a few moments to rest and reflect. Reflection is a key part of your life now. Inner-outer-inner. I love you forever and ever and will never ever leave you. This is your safety. Your safety resides within and without with your asking and willingness to receive. The breath is the way to receive.

Morning Laughter
Just had a conversation with a MetLife representative on the east coast. He emailed the requested forms and stayed on the line until they arrived. That took 10 minutes. He then stated that google and yahoo mail have been very slow lately. To which I responded, "Perhaps they're too busy buying up companies. You know, like gobble, gobble?"
We both broke out in hearty laughter. He said I brought a smile to his face. I hope that carries him through his day, as it surely will for me.
Cumulative Erosion
Sometimes this can happen if we stay in an unhealthy situation for too long. Like wind on a sandstone.
