I do believe that I'm standing in a different spot now. The view from where I am now is a little different. I am in a bit of awe...I have a little wonder. I am certain. I am fearful. I am climbing. I am washing all the floors in the world. I am accepting this task.
I do believe that I am opening. And I am climbing out of the box that I've been living in and seeing all the dust that has settled around me and I am washing it away.
A slow and arduous task it is. I am hating it and relishing it at the same time.
I do believe I've heaved myself out of a tiny little box only to find that I am within yet another, bigger box and will have to heave myself out of that one and stand on top of it as well. And wash another world of floors. And when I am done, I will do it all over again.
A constant shifting and reshaping of life. Constant change. I read the other day, "We are all unfinished portraits." How true that is. How utterly boring life would be if we got to where we wanted to go and stayed there. Closed the box. And let the dust settle.
Nice illo.

I just spent the afternoon reading all your posts... I felt like I was reading about my own life! I too struggle with how do deal with my own emotions (or lack of) in my adult life.
Your illustrations are adorable! Keep it up!

I like it. Change is funny. It can be so very hard, but then we change too, and it can be so very good.
