Getting Back Into The Flow

Just wanted to share a few words I found in one of my many books

A stone cutter may strike a rock ninety-nine times with no apparent effect, not even a crack on the surface. Yet with the hundredth blow, the rock splits in two.  It was not the final blow that did the trick, but all that had gone before.  I may pursue a goal for months without obvious results and become convinced that I am wasting my time.  But if I continue sharing about my struggles and being patient with myself, I may awaken to find that I have changed, seemingly overnight.  Suddenly I have the acceptance and self-confidence I have been seeking.  The results may have revealed themselves abruptly, but I know that all those months of faith and hard work made the changes possible.

This helped me get out of a "I'm not as good as others" slump.  I sometimes feel like I'm just running out of time with life.  It was just enough to let light flood the channels of darkness and take me into the flow of creativity.  I now have a project in mind, of which I'm actually quite excited about and will take photos to share with you all....once I'm done.

Well, time to hit the pillow, it's way past midnight...quiet here.  Sasha's asleep under my rocker; Lucien's downstairs asleep in Sasha's bed...hugging his toy mouse I'm sure of it.  I'm one lucky mom.
