Life happens … Things get in the way and distract us. Determination means not giving up - no matter what. On June 28th, my niece called to tell me my brother had fallen from a two-story roof while working. In less than four hours, I boarded a plane for the east coast. It was a grueling 11-hour flight with two stops on a one-way ticket.
My world was out of sync. I left a comfortable, peaceful life and stepped into 10 days of anxiety and distress. A strong belief system got me through the tough time. Faith – knowing my brother would be alright. Reassurance – knowing I would be back in my comfort zone again.
The rhythm of writing was interrupted. It was hard to find the time to write with so many things to do. Yesterday, I sat down, wrote for hours, and resumed my projects. I smiled as I wrote. You could hear the happiness in my voice. Today, I sit in the kitchen and write as the sun streams in the window. The ocean is calm and cool blue. Looking for the perfect description of color I found …
Blue Iris - "Combining the stable and calming aspects of blue with the mystical and spiritual qualities of purple. Blue Iris satisfies the need for reassurance in a complex world, while adding a hint of mystery and excitement."
A perfect description … onto new and exciting things!
