In this life we are living in comes fear...anxiety...and struggle for all sorts of reasons that are specific to you. My struggle has been living on opposite sides of the world from my husband since July of 2020 (Thank you Covid). After coming to the USA to take care of personal things... I found myself "stuck" in the states due to China's restrictive travel rules. I've basically been living in "limbo" for 2 years... I was moving from one house to another... my belongings were all packed up including my art supplies... nor had I updated any of my art media sites. Not only did I feel as if my life was in limbo, my art mindset was in limbo as well. But...I'm a glass half full kinda gal, so I realized ~ 'Sometimes you've got to look at the good in the bad, the happy in the sad, and find what makes you grateful not hateful.' I don't know who said this, but it's true! Sometimes God puts you where you need to be at certain times in your life. I've been able to spend more time with my family and establish a new life along these beautiful beaches in Inlet Beach, Florida. I have great neighbors, attend The Chapel at the Beach in Rosemary, joined a couple of local groups and played in a bocce ball league. Through all of these connections, I've met so many wonderful people who have become friends and embraced me during this time! Not a bad place to be "stuck". I'm so grateful for the kindness that overFLOWS from this community!
God has a plan for our lives and it's not always what we want or pray for at the time... Sometimes you just have to give it to Him and "Let Life Flow..." So this past month I pulled out my brushes and got to work! Painting has always given me an outlet to find purpose and peace.
My new series of art is entitled just that..."Let Life Flow,,,"
Here's a sneak peak of what I'm working on....
I will be co-hosting a joint art show for charity in early August....so stay tuned!
In the meantime, stay grateful and Let Life Flow...
