Love this Universe
Well, that was a gloomy day yesterday, wasn't it?
After writing "Melancholy Me", I did what any self-deprecating individual would do . . . I left the house, and walked. A long long walk. The kind of walk where you never look back, never look ahead, you just keep on walking. It was the kind of walk that allows oneself to soak in the sights and sounds of nature. The kind where you can close your eyes and feel the soft gravel crunch under your feet with each step, and soon the sounds of the insects around you sound like the most peaceful symphony you've ever heard.
Yes, it was a wonderful walk. PG and Ella were with me. And they allowed me to just be in the moment without much distraction or bother. I was so glad to have this time with them. With myself. With the universe.
When we returned home, we hopped in our little donut-ring paradise (our pool) and let all our worries out. PG listened as I shared my recent obstacles in my creative life, and he was so supportive and caring, it reminded me why I love this man so. He listened and offered suggestions to my dilemma, and encouraged me to keep going. It was just what I needed to hear . . . coming from the one person I really needed to hear it from.
Then he suggested I just let it go for a while. Give it some time to rest. And he was right. I leaned back in the pool, closed my eyes, and let that Vitamin D work its magic. Sometimes the sun can feel so good.
Nope, not this time.
Yes, my business cards have arrived. I'll be passing them out at The Creative Connection event. Handing them to other creative souls. Sharing my story, my passion, my energy, my art. And receiving the very same in return.
So, we move forward. I mean, I have these business cards now. A whole 250 to hand out . . . so I might as well keep moving forward, right? ; ) What in the world would I do with 250 business cards if I didn't? (Actual, I have 450 business cards, but I'm not counting the first 200 that I ordered WITHOUT my name on them. Nope, not counting those AT ALL.)
So much to learn.
No better time than the present.
Thank you, Universe!

Today . . . these arrived. 
Yes, I ordered them. And I knew they were coming. But I was not expecting them until 9/4. Today . . . they came. Almost as if the universe itself knew if it gave me too much of a break, I'd hide away all of those creative dreams for another 40 years.

ReplyDeleteGotta love how our beautiful Universe works!!! Helping to keep that forward motion!!
Haha, you're delightful! Yes keep pushing through! As far as those business cards without your name, you've got beautiful handwriting...perhaps you can write your name on the back (or if there is room, on the front)?
ReplyDeleteAs far as your copyright issue for selling on Etsy...no clue on that one, BUT...wondering...if friends are purchasing individually is that the same thing? Cuz I could totally see myself buying one of those pieces you made!
Just a thought... :-)
Love how you just keep on going, Leanne...this helps me keep on going you know.
ReplyDeleteI would love one of your biz cards...be sure and put one in when I purchase that bird one from you;)
