Relief





The husband and I had a "discussion" the other day and since then my head has been spinning. Full of information I can do nothing about and letting my imagination run wild making up scenarios that make my hair stand on end. Trying to quiet the beast that is my brain I went for a walk with a friend this morning. What a relief- blue skies, a crisp wind and the word "tiny" floating in my head. My daily assignment from a photo-journal class I am taking. For a period of time the conversation in my head stopped and I found peace. These beautiful eucalyptus blossoms reminded me of the forest scenes in Avatar. If you have not seen the movie you should go, I don't see many movies but it was a visually stunning movie and a wonderful experience. I'm not going to question how long this good mood will last but enjoy the peace and quiet my head is feeling right now.

  2. I am so glad you found your happy, peaceful place for a bit. I had a bad headache today and when I went into my studio and played with pastels for a while, it went away - I think when we get absorbed in something beautiful, something we love, our brain can relax and find peace. Wishing you more of that!! Love, Silke
