The need to create
What lies before
us and what
lies behind us
is but a small
matter compared
to what lies within us.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
The need to create is one of the strongest and most beautiful desires we humans have. There is such power and magic in creating Beauty in any of her forms. For me the need to create is sometimes overwhelming, almost suffocating. The need to create Beauty is all consuming. I believe that all of us are driven to find someway to express ourselves, find our own individuality, to share with others who we truly are. And what is more beautiful and powerful, overwhelming and magical, than creating life? Aren't we all drawn to creating something that has a little bit of our soul mixed in? The photo above is of a painting I did last night while thinking of my own little one that I learned was on their way only a week ago. I have life growing in me, each day it grows bigger and stronger. And it is breathtakingly wonderful, and beautiful. I want to make a life for this child to be wondrous and full of light. I want to create a place of love, in and out of my being. A place where dreams come true. I am going to be a mother.
