But with all the business, there was a lot of down time in the car. And i spent a lot of time, marveling at my surroundings & God's amazing artistry. It definitely gave us peace in an other-wise stressful time.

It was only when I went through my own life crisis that I began to realize what the really important things in life are. They aren't money or things. They are kindness and compassion and sharing. They are observing the beautiful things around us and also recognizing the pain of others and whether we know them personally or not - trying to help alleviate it in any way we can. Being so busy that we can't help our fellow humans is not success. I don't care how many zeros are in your bank account. Our world is only strengthened by love and compassion, and a hug can do more for someone's quality of life than any dollar amount. <br /><br />Thank you as always for sharing your thoughtful posts. You almost got me at the end (PRESCRIPTION! HA!) and I was rolling my eyes thinking "et tu, Charlotte?" But you are correct in that painting and creating in general is like a tonic. It sure helps keep us positive and sane in this crazy world. <br /><br />Have a wonderful day! :) <3Sheila Landryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03602620990428404324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2427642459447780119.post-74164864488339372832015-07-01T22:44:51.852-05:002015-07-01T22:44:51.852-05:00♡♡charlotte fletcher@roma land woodcraftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00024118638154841949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2427642459447780119.post-68876924735130432162015-07-01T22:09:27.544-05:002015-07-01T22:09:27.544-05:00Great post Charlotte... so true.. we do need to sl...Great post Charlotte... so true.. we do need to slow down and take a look around us.. get so focused on what we are doing.. we forget..about what and who is important...
