About Me

My photo
My life as a multimedia artist, poet and creative writing instructor has brought me to a deep awareness of nature's importance in my life. Beginning each day with a walk in a wildlife sanctuary keeps me healthy and spiritually centered. I look forward to sharing my experience with others through my blog, Quiet Waters.

MY GOOD INTENTIONS

More than a month has passed since my last entry. Spring has gently unfolded into summer, and new responsibilities call to us all from the now warm, green world. Planting, weeding, walking in the cool sun of morning, traveling, entertaining, painting...all these things have taken me away from fulfilling my good intention to write regularly. My first entry, made in the deep cold of January, seems so long ago. Now, I am much like the hummingbird outside my window, flitting from flower to flower, living my days, rather than writing about them, from early sunrise to late sunset. Forgive me, Dear Readers, if any of you are still checking in to read this blog. I have been kidnapped and taken away by Life, and for the moment, cannot be depended upon to write on a regular basis. There. I've confessed. If you are wise, you, too, will go out and fill each summer day to the brim with as many wonderful experiences as possible. We walk with summer for such a brief time. Then, as the days grow short, and a chill returns to the air....when it is once again possible to sit down at the computer without longing to be doing something else, on the blue sky side of the wall, I'll resume my weekly writings, and we'll share our days in words and ideas. Until we meet again, may you be blessed with a beautiful, restful, wonderous summer. But, should my muse beckon me before the leaves fall, you'll be the first to know! Yours for all seasons, Sandra
