As Time Passes

All the things that truly matter----beauty, love, creativity, joy, inner peace------ arise from beyond the mind.

Its Truly Fall

So many beautiful days in the fall. I look so forward to the beautiful colors in the trees. We went on a trip up north with 11 couples to view the beautiful trees, it was so much fun.
Last weekend I met with two of my girlfriends.We went down to Munros in Berkley. We spent two hours just looking through rows of beads. They are learning about making jewelry. So of course that was a great day for me. Not only to share a few hours with friends but also doing the thing I love. LOOKING AT BEADS.
Then we stopped for lunch/ brunch. OMG

That was one piece of French Toast, it was delicious. (no I couldnt eat the whole thing)

Birthing of a Thought

The birthing of a thought comes from an idea.
The resources have already been supplied.

With patience and certainty, we learn to trust in the process.

Have no Fear

This is a quote I found from Salvador Dali: "Have no fear of perfection- you will never reach it."
Strive to do better each time you step up to do a task or creative project.
 Striving for perfection is an impossible goal. As a perfectionist, you may waste so much time redoing projects that you may fail to complete them.
