Either way, it's there; noticed often by its affect. When we recognise - or are impacted by it - it shakes and loosens our sometimes-rusty cogs to great benefit! xo Claire Beynonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00005365677016923903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5100640878581081403.post-85601874251312534372014-08-27T10:17:36.054+12:002014-08-27T10:17:36.054+12:00Thank you, Marylinn - so much of every creative pr...Thank you, Marylinn - so much of every creative process seems to be paradoxical, doesn't it?

I live by this motto -- as many of us do, I'm sure -- that happiness is a fleeting state, but even when it's gone, it's there, just over the bridge, or around the corner, or in the air... I love that happiness is not something we can own, or control, or manage. We just have to let it be and take hold when it is within reach. I'm not sure it's something I think of as 'promised' as this poem suggests -- but it's there, in a state of perpetual motion and flow. Thank you for this today, Claire!Michelle Elvyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00503119577895402738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5100640878581081403.post-14403035492123092672014-08-19T15:19:46.961+12:002014-08-19T15:19:46.961+12:00Your paintings in progress are stunning, the color...Your paintings in progress are stunning, the colors carry me to another dimension. xoMarylinn Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759437467691163658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5100640878581081403.post-55475413236994745612014-08-19T14:00:04.897+12:002014-08-19T14:00:04.897+12:00Claire, your new paintings are brilliantly colored...Claire, your new paintings are brilliantly colored.
