“In the depth of winter, I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer.”
– Albert Camus
After many dry days, this winter has brought glorious, nourishing rain to quench the earth here. I’m grateful for each and every drop as I work away in my studio.
During those brief moments when the clouds part, I try to pause and lavish in the light with my cats – drinking in the warmth despite the cold, crisp days. I love my fluffy panthers but they’re a little too helpful in the studio sometimes!
As the new year begins, it’s usually a time where we begin planning. Setting goals, creating lists, writing intentions. We want to be someone, change someone’s life, do good and make a difference.
It’s a lot of pressure to put on ourselves.
But being forced indoors during the winter rain has reminded me that our real purpose in life is to just be.
Or in Eckhart Tolle’s words: “Become less, so you can be more.”
The State of Being is not a state of ‘having been’ or ‘will become.’
It’s about finding stillness. Curiosity. Passion.
Take a moment to consider your approach to the new year.
Finding things to let go of can bring you clarity and confidence.
Carefully adding beautiful objects that symbolize and reconnect you with the present moment can be a wonderful reminder to embody your stillness, curiosity, and passion.
“We cannot stop the winter or the summer from coming. We cannot stop the spring or the fall or make them other than they are. They are gifts from the universe that we cannot refuse. But we can choose what we will contribute to life when each arrives.”
– Gary Zukhav
