Getting Inspired

New week, new inspiration. Part of inspiration for me is actually creating. So often I absorb others creativity, but forget to do my own creating. Today I spent time making jewelry - one way I enjoy creating. Some of the projects were simple and only required me to put on the finishing touches while others I started from scratch or enhanced an existing basic design. All met the end result - I created. 

So this week's quote ties into creating. It a reminder to me to plan into my life time to make things, whether they are crafts, cooking, or something else. I need creativity in my life on a regular basis.

Every good picture leaves the painter eager to start again, unsatisfied, inspired by the rich mine in which he is working, hoping for more energy, more vitality, more time - condemned to painting for life.--John French Sloan
