Sitting Quietly

Its quiet right now, my job. I like it. It gives me time with my thoughts, something we don't often get in this loud and hectic life. And while I think...I create. My most creative moments have come when life is quiet, when the distraction of everyday existance are temporarily put on hold.

I have been working lately with elements I have created. There is something very satisfying about working with beads and fused glass pendants that were formed and fired by me. It really sparks my creative juices, perhaps because there is a life and thought in each bead and pendant. My life, my thoughts, when I work on the piece I know it, I remember its birth, something you don't feel in a bought piece no matter how beautiful it is.

So I am off to start my day. First i'll walking with a friend and then I will sit quietly my thoughts and see what creative paths I follow today.
