  • Spiritual Awakening

    “You are in for a spiritual awakening.  This night will be nothing like any night you have ever experienced.”  As Fern’s voice radiated through my headphones, I closed my eyes.  Maybe this time, everything would finally click.  If it didn’t, I wasn’t sure what I was going to do.  My life was in shambles and…

  • Creation

    On the eve of my art show – the art show that would decide the rest of my life – I saw a ghost.  Or at least the closest thing to a ghost as I could get.  Donnie had disappeared from my life two days before we were to get married.  Disappeared without a word…

  • The Museum

    PHOTO PROMPT © Lisa Fox  I knew immediately Scott had made the glass sculpture.  He had tried to change his style, but wasn’t completely successful.  Why he was making new art at all was beyond me.  He was supposed to be hiding, not projecting to the world he was still alive.  The only thing I…

  • Mindfulness Classes

    I have been teaching an adult gentle yoga class at the library where I work for a little over a year and have just recently added a yoga/mindfulness into the mix. It took quite a bit of convincing for my boss to let me teach another class as I am the Youth Librarian wanting to…

  • Sparkling Inspiration

    As the snow gently started to fall, I knew exactly what my project would be composed of.  It needed to be made solely of recycled materials and had to reflect the life in the mountains I craved so much.  Moving to a completely different environment and lifestyle had very nearly made me come undone.  But…

  • Screaming

    I heard the screaming even before I made it out of the car. Really before I had made it to the top of the driveway. I knew it was my aunt and I had a fairly good idea of what was happening. She had probably found her artwork missing and under no circumstance was I…

  • Fairy Garden

    Photo by Justine Meyer on Unsplash I knew exactly what I was doing when I entered the store.  My parents were very strict, very straight and anything to do with fairies would blow their minds.  But there was something exciting about building an entire world for fairies.  An entire world for tiny beings not everyone could…
