Ever since I have been reaching out to other photographers, writers and creatives - I have found so many incredible artists. I have also subscribed to many blogs that I have fallen in love with. This is one of them. This is a piece created by Kristen Powers. I saw this on her blog and asked if I could post it, here. These are the reminders we all need, and having it in such a wonderful piece of art, is a gift in itself ...Thanks, Kristen!
It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...
That is so great - I was just thinking of a new way to do an artful kind of prayer journal and I opened this - it gave me inspiration and new idea thanks
