Got Freedom To Make Choices?

 

 

 

I've returned from Boston, with

so many new and exciting things

happening in my life.

 

First of all, my customer and her

daughters liked me and loved

my work. I've landed another

paint job in a daughters house,

and will have to go back again

this week coming!

 

I'm going away from my own home,

my kitty, and my computer,

this time I'm taking my guitar with me,

and my new B'day present, a book

about Jaco Pastorius, The Worlds

Greatest Bassplayer.

 

I must get a laptop!

 

~~~~~~~~~~~

 

I'm also looking at life more freely

since I ended my relationship last night,

for healthy reasons that dont matter

here.  

 

When I was in Boston, I was felt so

much better, like a fish back in his own

water. The subject of living in the

apartment I was painting came up, and

I've been thinking about that ever since.

 

The galleries! The musical instrument

stores, the museums.....the huge

bookstores! The teaming millions of

people improving their lives! Joggers,

swan boats, gardens! I loved it!

 

I realize I am out here because

of a relationship which is long gone,

and this area I am in now is

depressed nowhere's ville!

 

I am in two bands however, and I

have students who love my teaching,

I have to slow down and wait for timing

to bring out the path before me.

 

BUT.......

 

I am excited about the Fact that I

am free. A lot of people have children,

situations that make them obligated

and totally stuck.....whether they

want to be or not.  However, I am

healthy, talented, and have a trade

to earn good money, and the rest

of my life isbefore me to design as

I wish!

 

THAT is totally Cool!

 

I have the Power Of A Million New Ideas!

 

I am at the brink of an amazing place...

because Tools is guiding me with new

Life Improvement technology, and I have

so many supportive new voices in my life! 

 

Boy! I have no excuses do I?

 

The only thing in my way will be me, and

between my own ears.

 

I was just thinking how one of my

current favorite tunes is an oldy by

Jimi Hendrix called Freedom! Thats cool.

So apropos! (sp)

 

I'm going to get the nerve up to do my

new budget, and live by it soon, and

I'm going to make that list of new goals

that fit my current life and condition.

 

Like setting up my easel again, and

drawing! I always said that if I put my

guitar on a stand, I'm much more

likely to pick it up and play it, well,

I guess its the same with my art isnt it?

 

Im exicted to say the least.

 

All the new dreams and wishes running

through my head like travel and who
knows....maybe sky diving!

 

Life is wide open, isnt it?

 

OK...back down to earth, I have to 

do my laundry and clean house, and

visit a friend who just got a new hip,

and get ready to play some rock and

roll at a gig tonight!
