“Tired, tired with nothing, tired with everything, tired with the world’s weight he had never chosen to bear.” ― The Beautiful and Damned
Hello, I hope everyone has been well. There is a lot going on here, and at the same time, nothing. If that makes any sense at all.
I canceled two dates. The two men were both annoying me for different reasons so I decided not to meet them. I have been on this canceling phase for some reason. It will pass.
I am meeting my friend Anthony tonight. I miss him and our conversations, so I am looking forward to it. He nourishes me spiritually. Thanks heavens for the friends that brighten our lives.
“Feelings are for the soul what food is for the body.” ― How to Know Higher Worlds: A Modern Path of Initiation
I have finished two mosaics pieces. One is below, and and the other will be on the next post.
I think I am the lazy mosaic maker. I often start with a canvas with already a design there and frame, and go from there. I have been told canvas don’t work for mosaics but it has been working for me.
I have been trying different materials and techniques. I see growth and it feels great.
It looks better in person, I promise 🙂 The colors don’t look quite right in the pictures.
“That which causes us trials shall yield us triumph: and that which make our hearts ache shall fill us with gladness. The only true happiness is to learn, to advance, and to improve: which could not happen unless we had commenced with error, ignorance, and imperfection. We must pass through the darkness, to reach the light.” ―

Nice art Ana. I’ve been poking around some dating sites, but I don’t like the online process or trying to get to know someone long-distance.

Thank you Brad!
The online thing can be very disheartening, but I am still willing to keep trying. I am a good person and I am there, so I believe there are other good people there also.
I try to focus on people in my area so that I can meet them sooner, before wasting too much time and energy on it.
I have met many good people online (and jerks too), and some have become friends. The friend I met last night for dinner is such a friend. I met him in 2015 and we have become great platonic friends.
Continue doing the things you love and love will find you when the time is right. I believe in that 🙂
If it hasn’t found me yet it is because is not the right time in. In the meantime, I just enjoy life as much as I can.
Do what it feels right, and what brings you joy and peace. Blessings to you! ♥♥

Being negative doesn’t help in anything. I do trust that good things happen to good people, but we have to get out of our comfort zone and go after what we want.

Thank you for sharing!!… your artwork looks wonderful!!… perhaps one day the world will see your art in a gallery, if not on the internet…. 🙂
I am sure there is someone out there that is searching also and just follow your heart, it will know when it is to be… “Every single thing that has ever happened in your life is preparing you for a moment that is yet to come”. (Author Unknown).. 🙂
Until we meet again..
May flowers always line your path
and sunshine light your way,
May songbirds serenade your
every step along the way,
May a rainbow run beside you
in a sky that’s always blue,
And may happiness fill your heart
each day your whole life through.
