When I came across this LIFE Poster - I thought it would go along wonderfully with how I have been feeling. Life is not a dress rehearsal. Life is happening right now. We need to live it, breathe it and take it all in. I do feel, at this age, that I am doing this. I feel comfortable in my own skin. Are you living, breathing and taking in your life? Or are you just going through the motions?
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...
Following you here now. Lovely blog. Hope you'll follow back on mine. Helps me to remember to come back to my followers.
