Sending love

My family and many close friends are in Australia and I will be far from them this Christmas, far from 'home'. Sometimes following dreams can be hard!

I was thinking about them all and sometimes wish I could magic myself there, just for an afternoon cup of tea. Or attach some little wings to my heart and send it.

In this exciting creative adventure of highs and lows, they are my base and help me to make sense of what I am doing.

So I painted them 'Love' and send it on ... knowing I carry them in my heart even when we are far away from each other.

balance

One of the things I have often struggled with is the balancing of the passion of my heart with the reasoning and logic of my head. 

Which one is the correct one to follow?

Often one will pull more than the other, as though I am in the middle of a balancing act walking through my life. When they are in balance I am able to walk straight and with confidence. When I allow one or the other to pull unreasonably I can veer off in the wrong direction and fall off my path.
      

Rather like a tightrope act finding the right balance in life! I had to paint it...
