~After the storm
I seek solace~
Well, this has been a time of turbulence.
Friends and loved ones sick and dying.
No time for art to speak of.
Not much time to connect because there's such a dis-connect right now.
Because I believe in the cyle of things I know this will pass.
This is NOT meant to be a downer of a post, but one of hopefulness that things will begin to turn around.
I'll be back soon!

Dear Laurel, sorry to hear that you have so much to deal with right now. Your photos are just gorgeous and I agree with Lynn - beautiful art. xx
ReplyDeletelife does seem to move in cycles - sorry to hear that yours is filled with sadness right now, but with time the cycles change and laughter and art will be back in your life. Looking forward to those times with you.

it ain't easy being a human is it? As I know, all the crisis' pass and other things wait to take their place, good and bad - but it's all how we approach it...and I think you're doing pretty good dear.
ReplyDeletemiss you, wish we had gotten together yesterday but we will soon.
I know how much you hurt, lo. I know that ache well. And the turbulence of that storm you're in right now...well, it is familiar, as well.
ReplyDeleteI've missed you, too, and I so hope you will dash some of that grief onto canvas...some of your best work could be waiting to come out now.
Hang on, hon, those crashing waves will soon smooth out a bit...
Fantastic photos...so wonderfully peaceful. xx
Beautiful photographs! So sorry for the turbulence in your life. I, too, hope it passes and your seas will be calm once again.
ReplyDelete(Peace)
ReplyDeleteLovely opening quote, nice glowing candle, great photos and the best part of every storm, is the afterwards ...when peace and beautiful rays of golden sunlight comes again....
ReplyDeleteI know you mean this to be hopeful but now I am really sad because I am so far away and there is so little I can do from here to support you. Only think of you .....
ReplyDeleteAnd yes this will pass but right now you have to deal with it. Know you are always in my heart...
