I realize it is December, but I'm not ready for it so I'm spending one more moment on being thankful instead. It's not that I can't be thankful in December, it's simply my way of rebelling against the passing of time. And speaking of the passing of time... I've spent so much time getting ready for my art show (did I mention it opens this Friday?) that I hadn't realized that two months have passed since I did a zen doodle. Wow... It felt so good to let my mind wander and my hand create. Or was it my hand wandering and my mind creating? No matter. I was able to focus on my gratitude and let the shapes take care of themselves.
