A Time to Choose

I have been here before.  Staring a crossroads clearly in the face.  Neither path is wrong, just different.  So, what is it going to be?  I am a strong believer in the saying that “when one door closes another opens”.  But we must choose and then be willing to let go.

So, I choose to focus on my art career – where that leads I am not quite sure.  That in itself is exciting.  At this point in my life it is what brings me the most joy and excitement.  Excitement for creativity yet untapped and excitement of the unknown.  Joy for being in a place where I can be myself and have fun.

A very wise friend of mine once said “They can do it without me.”  Marilyn Hillery – a dear friend who is one of the reasons I paint today. Sometimes the wisest thing a leader can do is let go and let others step up.

So, the community will survive and find new leadership. I will paint.
