Fruition of Dreams was actually painted out of a response to some bad news I received. I was not chosen for an opportunity I really yearned for. But as I digested the facts, and got over my pity party for a an hour or so, I realized that this is what is meant to happen.
I'm following the principles of "The Secret" in my life right now. And I do believe that the universe gives you exactly what you expect to receive. With this opportunity, I would have been away from my family for 15 weeks, or nearly 4 months. And that part of the plan broke my heart. I had wrapped my mind around 10-12 weeks, and adding another month to that made the whole thing seem a lot less appealing.
And that's why it didn't happen for me. It wasn't the right fit for me and my family.
That's what today is all about. Creating my own opportunities. I'm moving past the fact that TIME CHANGE SUCKS and I didn't get a lick of sleep last night.
I got up at 5:30, worked out for an intense half an hour on my elliptical machine while watching a Dr. Phil episode tivo'ed from Friday. The baby is up and dressed, happily eating her breakfast and watching Sesame Street. My eldest daughter, despite a bit of a restless night is still slumbering, and I'm eating a yummy HEALTHY breakfast.
I'm going to drop off my three year old at school this morning, then the baby and I will be heading to the gym to meet my friend and lift some weights.
I've got a busy day planned, so I had better get to it! If you want to see more of this painting or any others I have available, come visit my ebay store!
