Although this is a goodbye I get to share with all of you.
GOODBYE 2011
Endings.......Absolutely necessary to have new beginnings.
2011 is quickely drawing to a close. I sit here reflecting on the year soon to be over and setting my goals and my intentions for the new year that lies ahead.
2012....WOW. Time just flies by.
This year was a year of adventure, self discovery, self growth, lessons and alot of LOSS which brought even more lessons.
TAKE NOTHING FOR GRANTED. NOTHING.
The year for me was all about planting seeds and reestablishing a base for myself after being on the road for almost three years. It has also been a year of practicing patience. Not one of my better qualities. I had to really learn to TRUST AND STAY FOCUSED.
My journey has been such a gift and constant excercise in THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX. Which has given me so much FREEDOM.
My whole life has really been about DISCOVERY OF SELF.
Trust me I have had many detours and taken many wrong turns. I have learned that there are no wrong turns. Wherever we go is where we are suppose to go.....We eventually end up at our destination. It has taken me many years to get to where I am. Actually 45 years. I feel as though i have finally connected to my purpose and who I am and what my gifts are.
I feel very BLESSED.
So as 2011 draws to a close, I am very excited about all of the possibilities a new year will bring. I make a promise to myself to no longer block my BLESSINGS.
I was always a closeted artist. I never wanted to share my gift for the FEAR that I was not good enough. I lacked self confidence and i did not believe in my abilities.
I am now realizing after doing alot of work on me, and becoming comfortable and confident in myself as an artist, and knowing I have a gift to share, others are taking notice. That recognition is giving me the fuel and desire to share my gifts.
My promise is to continue to try and bring beauty into the lives of those I come in contact with.
I wanted to thank all of you who continue to love and support me as I try to make my way through the WORLD.
I WISH EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU A NEW YEAR OF WONDER AND LOVE.
PEACE,
JOE
REMEMBER NEW BEGINNINGS ARE A CHANCE TO DESIGN YOUR LIFE THE WAY YOU WANT TO LIVE IT.
