I miss

I miss my past... I miss my Mama....I miss my babies....I miss security....I miss being an innocent child....I miss being an unborn baby, safe and warm in the womb with no thoughts or worries or concerns....I miss that feeling of peace....I know that sounds a bit looney...to me too-ha!  But I guess I imagine that I miss that :)

I worry so much, I think it is my nature.  I wish it wasn't.

Just missing tonight...thats all...

Everything...

Sometimes logic tells you that its going to be okay, but still in your heart there is fear.  Sometimes you just have to know that love will win and that right will crush wrong and that EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY.    EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE OKAY.

Sometimes...

Sometimes the only thing to do is to begin again; start over; try to learn and feel and trust, even when it feels impossible...sometimes you just have to try again or you will never know.

LOVE

Love; sweet, powerful, simple love...makes life worth living, makes each day worth waking up for.  So sweet and pure and simple.

Progressions of a painting....

In my mind, I wanted this painting to be whimsical and magical...to make you feel like you just entered another world, like a childs imagination....
Here are a few shots of the progress.  I am really happy with how it turned out.

Love, Kelly

Rants # 3

1.  The more rips in the jeans, the better...FACT

2.  I think I'll wear two pony tails, even when I'm 90!

3.  Too much salt makes me crazy!

4.  I wonder if someday, way into the future, my great, great, great grandkids will read this and get a little glimpse of who I was....

5.  Hello dear great, great, great grandkids....even from heaven, I love you so, so much!

6.  Life is very short, I hope you are living your truths...I hope you are living the life you deserve and that it is filled with pure happiness :)   And someday, I will hug you and love you, up here in heaven! xo

7.  whew....that sort of threw me for a loop! :)

8.  Chips and Guac....YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

9.  Life is a constant balancing act....constant!

10.  God bless us all...every one of us!

No matter what....

Trying very hard to enjoy some happiness in my heart, to live in the present moment, and to let any worries drift away.  Its hard to let myself be happy, without being scared at the same time.  I'm working on this...how to trust and give and know that no matter what, everything will be alright.

Peace and a full heart

I havent posted in such a long time....life just keeps moving on...it has its own agenda and I'm just here for the ride.  I'm looking forward to 2013 and all its possibilities, big and small.  I wish us all peace and a full heart.

2013 word...

Finally, my word for 2013... this photo captures my intent perfectly...
SPARKLE

Yep, even me!
