Sometimes it feels like the mountain top is still so far away but that is simply because it is a new one and the horizon needs to be walked toward. I began this thing a few months ago as a part of walking away from a work environment that no longer was the right one for me. I was worn out having to go there and really there was nothing wrong with that. So now, I am doing what my head person suggested, looking for my exit strategy. It is evolving. I did the wise thing I have always done and simply point myself in a direction and see what happens.

That worked so well something is happening! So many things are happening I am scrambling on the inside to keep up with how it can all happen at once. An acquaintance said, “write a business plan!” I tried and every time I tried I drew a picture. So in the end I took a picture and wrote on it. The problem is the picture I chose was the centre of a set of tree roots spreading out! Who knew it would all want to grow at once. So it looks like there is a business of sorts to build. My hope food and shelter will come out of it and some community with a wide range of lovely and interesting people.

I am having to find a whole other set of skills in websites and online and the foreign land of the internet….read trademark law and things about intellectual property and copyright. I am meeting so very lovely people as a result. People who have willing offered support and skills I don’t have. And I am grateful.

So part of my enterprise got born that way. In my local coffee shop! I draw there a lot and drink coffee there a lot….and well I said an idea out loud and my now friend, the owner said just do it here and so i have. I’d write more but I talk about it all the time to the point of boring my friends I am sure! I say thanks to Diamantes at Forest Lake in an outer suburb of Brisbane….great things can be born in the suburbs it seems….we shall see. One piece at a time. More to come about coffee and lovely things.

My book of my Journey to Beautiful (the road to the colour of me) is at the publishers being formatted…..by a beautiful lady who understands colouring and paper and pencils. She said trust me and so I do. I know she will make it beautiful and appealing. It is an adult colouring book. But before that I is my journey in pictures and it is for sharing. Words would only complicate it.

And now twice I have been challenged about selling larger works so I guess after a webpage and sorting the legal stuff…there is the art stuff! The thing that has always been part of me. My creations that are extensions of certain times in my life….the places where I found lovely and gentle quiet and peace. They are coming to…..I just need to figure out the how and the what…..and another lovely person has offered me some space on her selling site til I get myself sorted!

No wonder the new peak seems so high at the moment 🙂 Thank you to all who I am meeting along the way who aregiving me support….and those of you reading this who have been around a while. X
