Dear Jennifer,

Welcome to the Dog Days of Summer ~ I believe New Jersey and Massachusetts have been experiencing the same weather – Hazy, Hot and Humid Weather! The downpours seem to cool things down a bit …It is all good!
 
Congratulations on your upcoming class! I am SO happy that you are branching out. It feels amazing when we breakout of our comfort zones and try something fresh and new! Please tell me how others are responding to your new idea – I would love to hear all about it! 

Yes, I am in the preparation stages for new and upcoming ideas – I am working with my Muse on a new path – I really enjoy it when I am in a creative mode – More to come soon! 

Opportunities not taken – Good Topic – You brought this up in your last writing – Almost like in the movie “SLIDING DOORS” with Gwyneth Paltrow – If you make one decision differently, the dominoes of life could change in a profound way – Interesting Thought – This also reminds me of the movie “THE ADJUSTMENT BUREAU” (Which I highly recommend with Matt Damon & Emily Blunt!) – Changing your mind, taking a different bus, leaving five minutes later etc. can change the pattern flow of the day … I think we could devote an entire post to this subject … 
Love talking about “What Ifs” … 

I do believe we need to stretch our wings, try something different and see where it leads us. I have been feeling like I have been walking the comfortable path for too long. It is time, to grow … Going back to the new and upcoming ideas mentioned above … Stay Tuned!

You asked if there was a time in life that I chose the safer path, instead of taking a risk. I feel I have always played life safe – I did not grow up in a home where we gambled on life – I hope to be taking more risks as I get older – Seeing where these ideas lead me –
 I believe it would be worth it in the end! 

Sending New England love your way – Wishing you and your family only the best!

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

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...

All about Hope ...

I thought this image was appropriate for how I am feeling today. I seemed to have gotten a second wind with being creative this year. I am excited to tell you about my new treasure in writing. It is a newfound website (that I found in a column in Oprah's Nov 2011 magazine) called 750Words.com. This site follows the steps of Julia Cameron's The Artists Way. It helps you work towards a better writing style. It encourages you to write 750 words a day. This is approximately 3 typewritten pages of words. I am finding it easier to pick a theme (from Patti Digh's LIFE IS A VERB book - Thanks, Patti!) to help create daily themes. Please cheer me on to continue this daily ritual.  Have you started a new routine that you would like to share?
