Surprised

My entry for Ann's "What Nourishes You?" journal. The surprise was that the parts of my life that I thought were thorns were not; they were seeds. Once the healing waters started flowing, there were blooms everywhere. I was surprised.

p.s. Brahms, of course.

A Safe Place

I created this piece for Maggie's "Dreaming" Journal. Maggie encouraged the artists to think about anywhere they wanted to go and I chose "A Safe Place." I am talking about relationships: my husband, my children and my dear friends. I desire to cultivate those precious and safe places.
