Freedom rocks aka What in the fuck are you waiting for?

I used to be the CFO of an investment bank owned by venture capitalists.  The day after 911 I told my boss, who had just been imported from Wall St. to Palm Springs, that I had always wanted to paint.  He said. "What in the fuck are you waiting for?"

So, I quit. 

10 years of happy.

How is it that I got the gift of life and so many lost theirs?

It is still really, really, really, really important not to waste a minute.

lol

That was also the same year I met Dr. Wayne Dyer.

  3. Hi,
    I have been in dental hell all week. I think I have had 47 root canals. How is that possible? Well....they like to do some of mine 2 or 3 times. I think he left his mercedes in one of them. ;)

    I love it that you left comments. It has made my week so much better. (((hugs)))

    I hope to be a person again soon. ;)

  4. It's amazing what happens when you listen to your soul. I use to make a necklace that said "listen to your soul", I should make more.
    Thanks for stopping by my blog, so nice to "meet" you.
    Did you buy the ceramic hand? That is my other shop, my daughter doesn't have a shop - she is in law school up in Seattle.
    I'm off to look at your art now!

  5. YES! I am thrilled to bits over that hand, so unique. I have been collecting them as painting props. I want to do an oil still life of a bunch of them.

    LOL! I know that is your other shop. I guess I am having blogblur this am. ;)

    Thank you for visiting Jeanette. It means a lot since I know you are probably missing a meal right now. ;) (((hugs)))
