Since 2013, I’ve continued on a heavy travel schedule. Each morning begins without fail with a journey through my routine which I’ve followed religiously for years. I look out the window to figure out where I am this morning so that I can plan out my day. Barbados, Grenada, Aruba? I know it sounds strange and somewhat petty to drop these absolutely beautiful paradises like they were down the corner or around the block. I realize that so many people would trade places in an instant. It’s at that moment that I also realize I’ve have lost sight of this beauty.
The beauty I’ve lost sight of is my inner peace. When such amazing creation no longer takes my breath away, I know its time to stop and refocus myself. So I do. I stop and take time to sit somewhere away from everything that reminds me of what my eyes tell me I need to do. Quietly I listen to the silence. That voice inside my head keeps interrupting and reminds me how much work I have to do. I brush it aside until it seems to get tired of interrupting and seems to go away.
The moment I open my eyes and I FEEL the beauty in front of me. I know I’m on a better road for me to travel. We all have interruptions and lose sight of the beauty in life. Don’t let your life’s history be written as I wish I had. . . .
Quiet your mind and enjoy life . Remember sitting by the lake and staring out as time drifted by. . . Remember the peace you felt while sitting and staring out watching the falling snow as soft music played. . . That’s Meditation. . . take the plunge
As artists we need to be able to focus and be present in our lives and that has become more and more difficult with every passing day.
Don’t let your artistry suffer at the hands of confusion, stress and all the I wish I had’s
