I should be _________________
Right now my brain is filled with close to 1,097 ways I could fill in that blank.
But instead, I'm going to go take pictures.  For me.  To see how beautiful things really are.  And to be creative.
And yes, I feel guilty.  And I feel weighed down by the list of things I need to do.
But I'm trying to remember - I also need a healthy soul.  And to do the work I want to do, I can never become a machine - I must fight to be an artist.

  1. well put. I was feeling very anxious this past weekend about everything I needed to do this week and when I went to church on Sunday, up on the screen was this verse. It's Philippians 4:6-7. Sometimes I would do well to remember God is there for me :)
    6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
