“Our lives are defined by opportunities, even the ones we
miss.” ~ Eric Roth
At this stage of my life, I feel that I am on a roller coaster. At the apex is you go girl, your time is limited
and the famous “if not now…when?” But
then there is the bottom of the curve…I am tired, how can I do this alone, what
happens if I get sick and cannot take care of myself? I think I have a very good idea about how
bi-polar may feel!
The Universe hands me opportunities, I have to recognize
them…then do the work! I have had the opportunity
to do some small abstract sculpture to accompany garden and floral arrangements. Something I have a little knowledge of from
my Nana Jones who was the high holy flower arranger of Lake county in the 60’s
but this is all very new and challenging work! There will be exhibit space at a southern
garden club convention in Tamp for a week and a wonder sculptor friend is already going to be
there, offering to take my work and sell it too. But then I began to realize that this event
is inside a large Hilton Hotel Convention Center. When will be the next time I can show a lot
of my work, indoors, with a hotel room just upstairs if I need to rest? THEN… there was the issue of getting there
and my son recommended I look into the train…Bingo! $14 each way, Winter Park to Tampa, cheaper than parking each day... and the Tampa train station is less than a mile from the hotel not to mention that Uber is my friend…The Universe is SCREAMING at me….DO
IT!
