Its finally happened. My lillibary is out of storage, which is a freakn miracle. Because Ive been paying for storage since I left the ATL in... shhhhhhhhh. Its way to obscene to mention. Lets just say, its been sooo long it would be appropriate to start this dialogue off with, once upon a time.... But. Good news --- Its done. The book shelves that I thought would never get built-- are built. The organizing and purging I never thought would ever ever be done, you guessed it --- done. It took me the later half of last year purging my artsy book collection but all the hard work has paid off. And Man does it feel good to have it completed. No more storage payment. No more hard core manual labor on the to-do list ---All crossed off! Done. Needless to say, I wanted to share a lil snippet of the process in this tiny tiny video. Once the studio is completely set-up Ill give you a virtual tour of how everything came together. So excited to share that! Reflection: Im sensing a theme, perhaps you too have picked up on it? Its about perseverance, believing you can accomplish what is calling inside you, no matter how long it takes & no matter what it is your heart desires. From a library needing condensing to living your desired life---- its all possible as long as you dont give up. Ever. Sometimes you need to factor in time, like real time to make big changes & become who you need to become in order to live your dream. In my case, with this library, I needed to let go of who I once was (and planned to be) the art historian academic who lectured & philosophized about great art, artists & various time frames. ...when what I really wanted to do was be the one creating & getting messy with paint & living inspired by The Muses. It took me nine years to do it & become what I needed to become so I could actually live it as my everyday life. And thats not to say everyday is perfect, or a dream but compared to where I was to today --- life has changed for the better. Pssst. FYI weve moved beyond the bookcase. Im now talking about being an artist, writer, designer, intuitive. Yes. Its a long time. I aint gonna lie. I didnt go it alone. I had tons of support from family, friends, woo-woo workshops, angels & guides, insightful books, went back to school, did a lot of crying :) etc. You know what I mean. And I think you know exactly what I mean. And so, if you find yourself impatient w/time, I hope you think of me and know you too can do whatever is calling within you. Because the truth is, it will only take forever if you give up.
