The Art of Life
Photobucket I'm so glad you're here! "The Art of Life" is where I share my journey as an artist & Momma. It's a place where I hope to encourage other women that they are artists too. In this small little space I seek to share, document, and be reminded of God's wonderful grace, all around us. ....And I would be so happy to have you journey alongside me! So grab a cup of coffee and linger for a while. I hope you leave feeling refreshed. Photobucket

Finding my Balance Again.......Sharing some Links

~~I'm finally getting to the other side of a bad inner ear infection; something I'd never experienced before and wouldn't wish on anyone. Dizziness, fever, chills,
and all from a little place in my ear being out of balance.
It had me thinking a lot about balance
and I'm sure there's a blog post in there somewhere,
but for now I'm just happy to start seeing the light at the end of this tunnel.
~~So I hope it's okay if, instead of sharing my own thoughts, I share some of the wonderful inspiration I read this morning.

**For When You Feel Behind
When I read the title of Emily's post it almost brought tears to my eyes because she put into words exactly how I've been feeling. Life seems to rush by and so many times I do feel like I'm constantly on the chase.

**When It All Feels Like A Mismatched Mess
"I haven’t got anything together and I can stop looking for some hidden door that’s going to someday open up to my real, perfect life and I can stop waiting and I can start laughing praise, because this wondrous mess, this is it."
 Ahh!! Yes!

 **Giving Oneself Completely and Unapologetically to An Obsession
My dear friend writes so open and honest and her post resonated with me this morning as I'm still seeking to become more and more comfortable in my own skin.

I read Mandy's post a few minutes before yours and I nodded through the whole thing.

Balance. So tricky. But thankfully we don't balance on a tightrope, more like a see-saw -- to move forward we must experience the ups and downs, but a little slip up here and there won't be tragic. What a relief to know that it is all in God's hands ultimately, because the responsibility of having to do it all on my own was making me feel like a failure. With the Lord to guide me, I'm still not in control, but I'm at total peace with that, knowing that He has our best in mind.

Very emotional, but i dont think everybody has feelings like you. People live in different tastes as depicted here in Artorca
