Create

It is rewarding to create. Both writing poetry and creating jewelry are extensions of my healing. I have setbacks which will re-open wounds that I had hoped were gone.
A part of me needs this to remind me where I came from and so that I take nobody nor time for granted. I am grateful for you each and everyday. My writing stalled for awhile and not because I had nothing to write about instead it was because I just didn't want to write anymore. I have begun writing again and look forward to one day having or making more time to write. I have been making jewelry as well. Both are very therapeutic for me and I hope to one day use my talents as a means of survival. I appreciate my current job and I know I am very fortunate to have employment. My passion is in the things I create and I want to be able to offer my brothers and sisters who are also survivors a place to heal either through writing, beading or other forms of creativity. In the meantime it is the women's lariats that I am creating which are my specialty in my jewelry business. I will post pictures to promote them. Each one is unique in color and design. Off to bead I go......
