Passion and Projects

Well I’ve mulled it over. Perhaps I was getting a little too carried away. I got very excited and went online and found places to buy tiles and other supplies, expensive but not out of the question. I even looked up on the Bulletin if there was any glass working classes that I could contact the professor and ask advice. But I started looking around my room and came to an important conclusion. I don’t really have the space. Where am I going to make these incredible creations? My room, which is about um 15x12 feet? This room is my bedroom, my living room, my office, my kitchen, and the holding area for my bathroom. In short, I don’t really have room to put lots of messy and breakable items in it. I am thrilled about my mosaic idea, but perhaps it would work best if i tucked this little nugget away and saved it for a time when I could better express myself and give it the time, energy, materials, and space it needs. But I am excited about the future! Hmmm Maria can have her dark room in the extra room and I can do mosaics!! and and Mitika can dance in the background!! BRILLIANT!!

However, I have come up with something new. I had sort of come up with a base idea, but then Maria, my lovely friend, gave me my idea evolved. She was thinking of me before bed, (as one should because it gives one such wonderful dreams) and, as friends often know some parts of you better than you know yourself, came up with an idea that got to the heart of my thoughts and feelings. I am going to explore my life and the things that I love. I haven’t hammered out the details yet, but it will encompass a lot, and I am excited to begin. I will start off with one of my favorite quotes by dear old Oscar Wilde, “To define is to limit.” Why yes, Oscar, I couldn’t agree more. My project will take me where the wind blows, wherever my passion is peaked. Hopefully the fluidity of such an undertaking will only turn out for the best.
