Oh how I love Dollar General
Last week I wrote about visualizing my dreams and goals and I am happy to report that I have bought some new art supplies! I'm still working on the multi-colored chalk, amongst other things...
I think vision + intent + action is a magic combination. At the beginning of the Summer I was feeling out of sorts what with everything in my life being stirred up once again (graduation, moving, new job, etc). So I started thinking about what I could do to bring back my drive and inspiration. What I ended up doing was reaching out to some of my creative friends about collaborations and that got the old creative juices flowing once again. I wanted to work on projects for the love of creating new and beautiful things. That is where I decided to start and it put my mind in a better place.
Since then, a lot has happened. I have taken in a dog (an unexpected part of the journey) and renewed my commitment to my original dreams and goals. I truly believe that having the company of the dog and the added exercise has lifted my spirits and opened me up to all the things I love and had shoved aside for a time. I feel like I'm getting back to me, finally! Facing the Music has also helped put a lot into perspective.
Last night I was chatting with a friend about all my experiences in Scotland and what had inspired me down this path and I felt such a resurgence of love and purpose. It was like every piece fit together once again.
I got into all this to use food and creativity to help others and create community! It's a long and winding road to be sure :)
