A few years ago, I was feeling particularly overwhelmed. I had recently gotten married and my life was changing all around me. Let's just say I hadn't acclimated yet. I decided to go see a friend of mine, Avis the art therapist . After pouring my soul out to her about my artist angst ridden ways, she said to me.
" You know Marcy life is like a great big quilt and all the patches represents different parts of your life. You're focusing on one patch right now. Focus on the whole quilt and all the beauty within it." So now when I get myself in a twit I think about quilts and I wrap my self up in the beauty of them, it's a comforting thing.
