..Art..

Art is the unspoken conversation with God as it would be between old friends who hide nothing and still have love.

..the Mermaid Cafe and other dreams unrealized..

My journal is filled these days with other people's quotes, magazine cut~outs I was drawn to, song lyrics that play in my head and graciously give themes to unspecified days. All beautiful, and in small ways a representation of my little life...but they are not "from" me. It's been too long since I've given myself the time and space to create. Rather than let my beautiful inspirations fly away...I will share them here. It is the need to have something out there that is "me"...a tribute to the God who created me. An old (cherished) mentor I used to have once described worship as a period of time when you are doing something and you feel God's pleasure washing over you as if to say "this is what I created you to do, and it brings me glory that you're walking in it."

I hope I remember how..
