You every notice how time seems to fly by when you are doing something that you enjoy and when you are doing things that don't interest you as much the day just drags by? There are so many things in my life that I used to enjoy doing and I would still enjoy doing them if only I had the time to sit back and relax to do them.
I have loved art since I was old enough to hold a crayon. My father taught me to draw at a young age and I will always share my love of art and drawing with him. That will be a memory I will always treasure throughout my life and art is a great way for me to relax. However, it seems as though I just do not have the time to take out a canvas and paint. I have loved to write poetry and short stories all my life. I am an artist and a writer before anything. Sometimes my writting influences my art and vice versa.
I haven't had a lot of time between work and getting ready to move to do the things that I enjoy but with the coming holiday of Thanksgiving and the short but well needed vacation time for the holiday I am looking forward to kicking back for an hour or two with a good book, sitting down with just my imagination, a pencil and a notebook or blank canvas and getting back to what makes life worth living. You have to enjoy the simple things in life no matter how rare the moment are that you get to enjoy them. Hopefuly I'll be able to do this in the next week and hopefully I'll be in a better frame of mind once I get to relax and enjoy my time to myself and my family.
I hope everyone has a great holiday and I hope you all find time to relax and enjoy yourself over the holiday.
