I love your new space, it's absolutely gorgeous. I would love to be created by this saying each day when I walk in my studio (which pales to yours). This saying could be my life . . . after 50 years I'm right where I'm supposed to be . . . making art!
Posted by: Sherry | December 03, 2009 at 09:12 AM
That is such a great mantra. If we would only enjoy where we are now, more - instead of worring so much about where we have been or where we are going. Less regret and less worry.... live life!
