Life Beats Down...

Life beats down and crushes the soul and art reminds you that you have one. -- Stella Adler


It certainly has been an interesting journey the last few months with a job change, health issues, and more. I am so blessed to have an outlet -- not just a refuge -- but a place to transform negative thoughts and feelings into something positive and healthy. One of the major coping mechanisms I have been creating for myself is the use of the senses to handle stress and strong emotions. Taking time to smell my coffee, feel lotion on my fingers, and seeing the beauty of color! It is wonderful.

  3. Eveything happens for a reason in my book and sometimes you need the rain in your life, because without such, the sun cannot make a rainbow!
