Peace....

Peace is knowing what you have is what you have...and that's enough.
I have been struggling with needing to be more than I am at the moment. But that more is actually more than a year ago. When is that loose term ever achieved? I know I have made it when....My answer used to be "When I sold my first art piece" then after that is when I am a teacher...Then it was when I have a designer...at this rate I will never find peace....Always changing my pot of gold when I have attained it. Where is the peace in that kind of living? I am holding my breath that I may never reach the end. Chasing the rainbow and getting out of breath...(I am over 40!)
Well, I have been reading an awesome book called "Eat, Pray, Love" .
This author is a writer (obviously) and very creative in her writing and hysterically funny. I was belly laughing the first few pages. (I should have said the book is about the author's creative journey and spiritual walk to find peace with herself and God.)
I recommened it highly. I am reading it for a book club I have on Friday eve. I'll let you know what they think. It has settled my spirit. By being settled and finding peace It has inspired me to paint big time and draw and create and make ATC's. I haven't been in bed before midnight since I started this. So if you need a creative Storm...this may do it.
