I am surprised at how fast this week has past by. This may be due to the fact that I am working nonstop and my days are blending into one another. It’s funny because just a few months ago I was hoping for more creative outlets and work and now I have been consumed with work and not as much time for the book I am working on. However, I am not letting that stop me! In fact, it is only helping me push more so now than ever before (hopefully this feeling does not fade). It’s crazy how you can hope for certain things to change and you feel it will never happen, yet, it can within just a short amount of time. But because you don’t know the exact time frame it can feel like forever. What I have learned these passed few weeks is something one of my close family friends Johanna always reminds me, “to always move forward” and I believe this wholeheartedly. It is at first hard to practice, but when you get the practice down, nothing can hold you back without a fight. All of a sudden your weeks continue to pass by because you are always moving forward and not idle any longer. I hope these beautiful prints help inspire you, as much as they have for me this week.
