Finishing.

I've never been good at finishing things. I have several goals. Some new and fresh; some that have been dusted off a few times; some covered in cobwebs; and some I have forgotten about or given up on because I made too many excuses too many times.

It's sad really, because I believe these ideas I have, that at times suddenly pop into my head, do so for a reason. I believe objects come into my life because they are supposed to... like books or art supplies, etc. Books specifically have been on my mind a lot lately.

I have MANY books in my posession. Some referred to me by friends. Some given to me or referred by my inspiring, knowledge flowing momma. Some I just saw somewhere and thought, "hmm, that looks like a good book."

To be completely honest with myself and the universe, I don't think I have ever really read any of them (okay, maybe a couple, I don't remember) all the way through! Not even my Bible - don't judge me - I know that's in there somewhere.

I feel like I have let myself down. I feel like my brain is numb in some areas (That could also be from lack of sleep). I feel like there is a smarter, more interesting, and vivacious me inside that could be doing more with herself. Saying more, using my talents more, sharing more with the world.

So, a goal: Read every book I have all the way through - even my Bible. I'm actually quite excited about this.

My first book is called: The Soul's Pallete - Drawing on arts transformative powers for health and well-being. So far, I am really liking it and it has made me want to start up my art again.
