This Space is For....

Originally, this blog was created to share art and creativity.... work I had been doing, artists who have inspired me, projects for others to try, etc.. This past year, a soul shattering event occurred in my life and in the lives of my family, when our darling girl, Sasia, passed away unexpectedly at the age of 25, while sleeping. To say that this has been the most painful and difficult experience of my life, is an enormous understatement. I have learned that it is impossible to imagine the depth of emotional pain and grief that this type of loss brings. It has left a huge hole in my soul, that I feel everyday. This blog has now become a different avenue of expression for me as I share the deeper part of my experience with this loss, and the way that it is now woven into the fabric of my family's everyday lives. In time, I am sure that part of my sharing will be interlaced with artwork, as I feel my way back into artistic expression. For me, Art has always been a joyful expression, and since my daughter's transition into the heavenly realm, I have not felt a strong desire to create. I am just now beginning to experience some stirrings along the artistic lines.... so, in due time, I will be sharing some art. In the meantime, I hope my words here will be inspiring or helpful to others . Namaste.

About Me

My photo
Kirkland, Washington, United States
I strive to be..... loving, kind, spiritual, generous, helpful, intelligent, sharing, sweet, thoughtful, caring, good, inspiring, useful, artistic, and deep. Sometimes I am irritated, impatient, careless, petty, negative, and foolish. I care most about my family, my friends, Spirit, and Love. I am obsessed with good coffee, the sweetness of children,a roaring fire, art in most of its forms, water.... touching, tasting, smelling, hearing and seeing water, roses, miracles, hummingbirds, seeing "signs" from my darling Sasia, being with my family.

Cruise Vacation starting in the Big Easy













We are in New Orleans! What a cool place... well, in the figurative sense anyway. It is so hot & muggy here, the humidity is just crazy. We have spent a couple of day early in the vacation visiting my dear friend, Maria from high school. It is so..... good to see her & spend time with her again. She is my cup of tea & I love her. She is an interesting person, creative, fun to hang with & a truly great friend. It's been so fun reconnecting & getting to hang out with her a bit. Next, we went on our cruise to Belize, Isla Roatan in Honduras, & Cozumel, Mexico. We spend one week on the cruise ship, relaxing, soaking up the sun, eating great food, & making friends with some of the greatest families! We were so fortunate to have a dinner table with 2 wonderful families that we will be friends with forever! I'll post some more pictures of them here once I have the photos downloaded to my computer. For now, these will have to do.....
