Journey of Quilting

A promise to keep...

Whilte contemplating lately, I have noticed that we justify our existence primarily
on what we accomplish and do...
Like that locket your mother gave to you when you were 12... and cherished looking inside... it was like a secret no?... Promise to be gentle with yourself.

Skip those grandiose goals...

don't worry...

I believe we (including myself) have forgotten how to relax...

Seriously, with the tv recycled to better use (even though all husband and I watched was Jack Bauer and Jack from Lost — strange eh? both Jacks...) it's definately given the family/living room a quiter "sense" in the room...

My Husband is making custom built bookcases in our family room and I simply cannot wait to show you all his handiwork — it really is transforming that space to a more natural, more unceremonious area... to read... write... play music... dream...

Slow down and let life happen~
