- Josephine Hart
Discovering what you feel passionately about....something that defines who you are and drives you forward every single day....is an adventure that I urge everyone to take in their lives. For some people, this is an easier task than others. For me it has taken hitting bottom, repeatedly, before the smoldering embers of my creative spirit took hold of a warm breeze and turned into a roaring flame. It has taken patience to quiet the voices in my head that were screaming at me about the work that I 'should' be doing, so that I could really hear the more gentle, nearly silent voice of my soul. I can honestly say that fire has saved my life....saved me from some really dark places that I have needed to travel through, and stood as a beacon of hope in a calmer harbor. Everywhere I look I see little landscapes of what inspires me. I am always aware of the dark places, but my mind is filled with color....and the beautiful sound that a needle and thread make as they are pulled through layers of cloth calms me so that I hear more clearly where my soul wants to sail....
