Waking up to a flower that's opening its petals as you are opening your eyes is a good reminder that we are organically connected to the nature surrounding us. Some of our close friends here on Maui bought a home a few years ago, not only did they buy the home but also the water lily ponds that came with it. It used to be a lily farm and they have managed to maintain the ponds in a fairly good condition. No need to say it's also the toad's kingdom. The photo just above this text shows the process of the flower opening as the daylight kicks in. So thankful for the gentleman who brought these over to our place.
I have been keeping myself pretty damn busy lately. Wishing there were more then just 24 hours in a day. Wishing every morning that I had not gone to bed so late. But doing it all over again the next day and doing it right now as I am writing thinking 'girl you'll have to open your eyes pretty early tomorrow again...' Oh well.
I am working on a few different projects at the moment. One that involves me starting my own little business, finally (yay to that!), another one that's taking me back to my love for video and video editing (and this itself is very time consuming) and let's not forget this little blog of mine! That's actually where it all started. I said it before but I really wanted to start a blog to set myself a creative discipline. Discipline is important to me as I tend to daydream a lot. And I have to say that I still find time to dream but the discipline seems to have done a good job on my ability to get work done. I could say I even have some goals lined up and I am working hard towards achieving them. Such a happy feeling. Exhausting too but really the determination overcomes the lack of sleep. Thanks to hubby though who tries to let me sleep-in here and there, knowing I'm the most creative at night. It's all very exciting and I can't wait to share more about all of these. Hopefully discipline does pay off.
Meanwhile it seems like my computer might need a little maintenance and I might have to do this soon so please, if you don't see blog posts for a few days, maybe a week(?), stick around...I am not abandoning the ship. I might even be able to borrow another laptop. You can also ask the tech goddess to be on my side so that it will be quick and cheap!
With that said, a little break from online presence might just do good to me and my soul.
Discipline and Resilience.
