Rough Waters

Rough Waters

I am so worried all the time that I will never again create something that is meaningful to me. I spend days thinking and thinking, hours staring at blank walls. My husband walks into my office as I’m sat in the middle of my floor, staring. He backs out slowly. There is nothing to say to me. I am within myself, brooding. I travel through Brazil and teach workshops. At some points I feel like a fraud. I teach, but…

Promoting Passion Week 99: Moving On

Moving on…It felt like an apt title for this post since this is video #99, and I am aiming for 100.

Homemade dinners, everyone swapping motorhomes to taste some of each. Pitstops at inspiring places when the mood struck. Sunsets and sunrises that made us all squeal with joy and then immediately stop, and quiet ourselves, and reflect. It was our last evening. We had been…

Use It For Good

Use It For Good

While I was traveling I overheard two statements that made me sad: “I can’t believe how stupid humanity is.” “People are just naturally cruel.” I heard two people say those statements in the same day, and for some reason, instead of letting them be random words murmured by strangers in passing, they stuck with me. I wrote them down in my notebook and really thought about them. I thought about all of the horrible things people have done, and all…
