Happy New Year! As I listened to the Today Show’s overview of 2008 for the nation and the world, I began to review my own thoughts of 2008. I have to admit that it was a challenging year for many reasons both personally and professionally.
I tend to put myself “out there” and try new things. Generally I find success and general pleasure that I have learned something new, experienced career growth or just come out even no worse for wear. In 2008 I found that I did not listen to my inner voice that has guided me in the past. I also did not learn to polka which was a New Year’s resolution for 2008.
For New Years Eve 2008 I had the pleasure of attending “First Night” in Saranac Lake, New York. As I watched children and parents dance to the music of Inisheer I felt a sense of community and enjoyment that I intend to take with me into 2009. If I listen to the inner voice that has guided me in the past and remember a community coming together in subzero temperatures to celebrate life, a year past, and a year just beginning, I think it will be a better year in 2009. I am also putting learning to Polka back on the top of the list.
What does this mean for “One Woman’s Life in Color?” It means that no matter what is going on with family, friends, or work, I will continue to explore my creative thought processes through color. I invite you to join me this year as I share my conversations with my dye pot, (mirror, mirror on the wall or dye pot, dye pot on the stove).
Happy New Year
