Reflecting

Jan. 11, 2009

My day begins with resolve to LET GO of whatever I can. After methodically scanning the contents of the POD, I take a few moments to sit in my old drafting chair. I recall a time when it was brand new and I was exhilarated when it was delivered. This chair and this drafting table where once the center of my creative world. They shared my daily life with animals that are no longer alive, in places where I once lived, in a life that I shared with a previous husband.  While those important experiences molded me, I am not the person I was yesterday. That woman, no longer exists, she has grown and will need another chair to sit in and another table to create upon.
