Gel Pens rock
I consider myself good at lots of things, except crafts. Even when the girls were little, we would sit down to color, glue, or paint and I could never find my inner artist. Tonight, I went to a mother daughter craft night. As we headed to the class, I was nervous. I knew I would actually have to use my hands and not my computer to create. My biggest challenge is the daunting empty piece of paper. Everyone around me always seems to have better ideas. All the other "crafters" were eager to get started. I needed time... and a escape route. As fate would have it, my wish was granted. We had a bonus activity, we were having our hands analyzed. My finger prints were looked at, gift lines, and inner hand markings. This definitely was not the gypsy with the crystal ball. What she described to me was Karma Sisters. It is fascinating to meet someone who knows nothing about you and is able to tell you things that no one else knows. Her main message was that I have a calling and it time to get to it. I wanted more, but my time was done, and I was forced back out to the craft tables. I was now behind and I had to get busy and commit. Its so much easier to be creative when the pressure is on. I settled down in my chair, channelled my inner child, thought about my calling and pulled out an amazing hand drawing with my Karmic message. Painting became like a meditative state. I liked being a child again, maybe my Mom will come over and make me lunch while I finish my coloring. Just so everyone knows, gel pens rock!

Hey Janet, Just reading backwards all your blog posts as I'd intended to comment on this one and hadn't done it yet! As usual... Anyway, I'm loving them. Love the variety, the insights, the honesty - keep it up Karma Sister Founder. And, thanks by the way, for the kudos. It wasn't hard to see the passion and potential in your hands - or your heart.

BTW, you can find me at winewomenandapaintbrush.com. It's one part of my rather "mixed-media" life!
