I have been sad lately. Not gonna lie. But Today is Monday, dang it. It is a new day and the beginning of a new week. So ya know what? I'm making a choice. To not be sad, despite some of the things that make me want to be. Ya know why? Because happiness is a choice. If we sit around and wait for happiness to come sweep us up off of our feet we will spend many days miserable and blue.
So today I will be happy. And this week I will be happy. I will find motivation in little things like cups of coffee and the little yellow flowers growing in the pots in front of my shop. And I will make something beautiful.
...and I will choose today to forget as much as possible the things that make me sad.
Today's Pearl of Wisdom: Forgiveness and Stupidity. Sometimes they look a lot alike.
Born and raised in the thick humidity and southern culture of Mississippi, I am trying to waltz through life and learn a little something along the way. For some reason beyond my parents' comprehension, I decided to be a professional artist. I can't imagine doing anything else in this world. This blog is an outlet to sift through being a creative, a single adult in a small town, and flawed but valued child of God. I hope you enjoy walking through this adventure with me.
