creative courage

I found these candles in a small bookstore in a town near Mt. Shasta, California.  When I get stuck and can't move forward with something I am working on, I look at these and clear my mind.

I have discovered over the years that when I stop listening to the drivel and distractions in my head, then what is trying to happen...does.

No deep thoughts there, eh?  Just my thoughts this morning as I get Big Girl ready for a day of practice.  She feels good in my hand, like she belongs there.  She's at home.  Relaxed and ready to have some fun.

Today will be a good day.  I sense it.

Have a good day wherever you are and whatever you are endeavoring to do.

  1. So, instead of burning a candle at both ends, you burn two ends of two candles! Fantastic

    That's me, why burn one candle when you can burn two? :D

    I just got lucky and happened across them. Some of the best things I've found were just by quirky luck. :D

  5. I may have to get a special candle for writing "atmosphere" and "aromatherapy." Hmmm...

  7. @Holly: it's a thought...I love the aroma of candles and they usually enhance my mood...

    @Thom: thanks Thom, I think there is enough negativity in life that I don't need to put any on myself...

  10. @Nelieta: Yes they do, and hot wax dripping on you can set a mood too :D

    @Debra: I'm a very visual person, and those candles help me stay focused when my vision becomes less than clear.

    Thanks for the comments!
