Lala Land
I love to paint. I sit in front of a blank canvas, spread out a dozen colors or so in front of me, pick up a paint brush, and begin to create something. Before i begin to paint, I usually have some idea of what i will be "creating". I begin with an idea and always finish with something that never looks the way I had envisioned. I usually like it more then the original idea in my mind.Why can't we live life the same way? Be adaptable, open and trusting. Trust that no matter how things end up, even if different than planned, it can still be beautiful and worth while...and most of the time better than what we ever thought possible.
What if we could paint our life? Sit down in front of a blank canvas, pick our colors and spread them out in front of us, pick up a paint brush, and begin to paint. Paint with no expectations of what the finished product will be. Just paint. Have fun. Be creative. Let go. Find beauty that's beyond our imagination and most importantly, beyond our control.
