There are so many reasons, but I will only share a few. First, there are children in this country and all over the world that will go to sleep tonight without a true home. They don't know what it is like to have a Mom to cradle them in their arms as only a Mom can. They don't have a Dad to kiss them on the forehead and say "Everything will be okay." There are some who will have enough to eat and many many more who are hungry right now. I'm not talking about what we consider hungry. The "I think I need a snack hungry." I don't even know if I can describe it because I haven't ever felt it. They will cry, but many have given up the act of crying because it didn't do any good. It didn't change anything. No one came. No one came and patted their backs with reassurance that they were not alone. This is happening right now in every country. My heart aches for them. There are so many people who feel that tug at their heart to help these children ...
Look at how cute these projects turned out. I have been creating like crazy over here! You can go to @gratefullymadestudio on Facebook to watch the tutorial on how to make the fun plaid trees in this picture. So easy and inexpensive!
I'm still painting intuitively. I start something with no expectations as to what the end result might be. This is one of those paintings. I am completely embracing color. This one might be my favorite so far in this process. We are discussing mindfulness in my class and learning to always look for inspiration. It truly is everywhere. You just have to be aware and be still long enough, and it will find you.
