You can bleed for it so unconditionally that some days you wake up dry and lost. <br />You don't think about those days when you begin. Its all so exciting the creating of this dream that one day you wake up and realize you can no longer just create you have to sustain.<br />I feel that this realization becomes a breaking point for so many. We all have to evolve with our companies and our passions. You either acclimate to the new levels or dissolve with the dream.<br />I've acclimated and am still struggling to find the work/life balance. Yoga seems to help. <br />I am so glad to hear that you are acclimating as well!<br />Never give up!<br />luluLULU wanderlusthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12485892672189231790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5782361464870219337.post-3900378082417114342009-04-22T08:07:00.000-05:002009-04-22T08:07:00.000-05:00This business can take over your life and on many levels it has mine as well. When I'm not working I am thinking about working and when I am working I am thinking about how I would rather be with my husband and 3 kids. There seems to never really be a "day off"... and with the economy as it is... I feel even more pressure to stay "ahead of the curve". I hope you got some good rest... you obviously got some good perspective. Nice to meet you.Magic Brushhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09663747993075580281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5782361464870219337.post-78643519457221212312008-10-19T09:44:00.000-05:002008-10-19T09:44:00.000-05:00Sorry you had such a bad time -- but it's true. At least as artists, we can move on to other projects with beautiful pictures to boot. I can't wait to see the pics!Reginawww.garayartisans.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5782361464870219337.post-7869227952290372022008-08-17T21:49:00.000-05:002008-08-17T21:49:00.000-05:00My first comment!
