image play + {this} moment.

i'm playing with a new app called diptic in these two images.

of course, you see two of the five images are in both compilations.

having a moment of creative fun between caring for my boy who has had a bit of a tough cold this week. thankful his little body is getting the rest it needs and will rejoin his school buddies tomorrow. i'm also thankful for the flexibility to move beween the spaces of the studio and home as needed. i love what i am doing and how life is moving.

these days i continue to live creatively in the way i move through the day and in each moment. i continue to put pen to paper, to create art, to envision and brainstorm new ideas. i am gaining more support and recognition of my art+spirit groups and retreats. soon i'll actively seek scheduling for 2012.

there is a lot that takes place in the between spaces of bereavement group facilitation, meal planning & preparation, baking, creating art, and spending time in our cozy home with my loves. i am working on new websites for myself and the sacred groves created in my art+spirit and retreat work. i am writing and seeking new avenues to be published. i am working toward the 2011 feast festival that will take place on april 15, 2011 in richmond, va. oh, there's more.

sometimes i think you'll intuit what's taking shape in my suzanne-sized-space, but how would that be possible? there maybe hints in photography or through stories. truly, sometimes i need to remind myself to be explicit. tell the story. you're living the life, now share it, too.

some parts of life are mine alone. while i blog for myself and for you, i live for me. i take myself to tea and seek glimpses of the sacred in each day. i practice being present in the moment, opening my eyes wide to life before me. i aim to listen and to listen well. i do what i am able, breathin in and breathing out.

i give myself breathing room. and i am so, so thankful. while this doesn't catch you up, it's a glimpse of {this} moment. my centering practices keep me in check and the rhythms of life stir within me. i can feel the need for more warm outdoor time to work in the soil. i sense the need to gather women together, to laugh, to toast, and to stitch a quilt i must complete.

my, oh, my. much is bubbling within. i feel like dancing. my yoga will be my dance tonight. may you find room to breathe, to dream, and to dance under the stars tonight or in your {this} moment. peace. delight.
