I am a Maker.
I’m rather domestic for someone who loves sitting with a good book for hours. I love to grow flowers for bouquets and herbs for cooking, to make fresh, crisp salads, hearty entrees and yummy desserts, to sew heirloom garments for my daughter and grands.
When I feel pressure from day-to-day life or difficult relationships, I like to make something beautiful as a pleasant distraction. Like most everyone in the free world, I have complicated people in my life, and I have had a personal history with toxic types. The most freeing, most loving thing that I can do for myself when complicated people try to test my goo nature is to make something beautiful.
Try it for yourself. Find or start or re-start something you love to make and escape into the flow you feel in the midst of happy creation. Try it now. Be a Maker.
