[Scroll down the page to enjoy another Calla Lily photo.]

Hi , 

I know it's been quite a while since I've written. My apologies, especially to those of you who used to count on receiving Picture to Ponder/Treasure Your Life Now regularly. I have been in the process of redefining myself and my businesses. I am now back! My focus will be on relationship coaching... with creative media among the tools used to produce, depending on individual needs.

If you are not a long-time subscriber to Treasure Your Life Now/Picture to Ponder ezine and are wondering why you are receiving this, please know that at some point you did subscribe. 

THE PHOTO - 
The above Calla Lily photo/drawing, on a plaque on my kitchen wall, looked across the room at me and announced it wanted to be featured here. This seems to be quite fitting given it was photographed in a sink and is somewhat akin to: 

"I want to wash off writing is a burden, 
lather it up into beautiful suds, 
then watch it wash down the drain. 

Though it served its purpose 
in the beauty of the bubbles, 
I’ll trust the clean canvas of my skin 
will allow much more."

The thoughts also seem to sum up where I am right now... with an almost "clean canvas." 

The above words are the free-flow conclusion in a timed writing piece responding to the prompt: 

"The purpose of writing is washing the dust of daily life off my soul."

EXCITED... FURTHER EXPLANATION AND UPDATE -
I've been working on putting together for a Kindle book a compilation of some of my free-flow writings over the years. Tentatively titled, "Writing for Self-Discovery - Finding Answers," it complements my coaching.

The pieces included were mostly done from prompts offered by Julie Jordan Scott in programs she facilitated. I am honored that Julie is joining me in contributing to the book. Watch for it. Coming Soon.

THE CALLA LILY STORY: Why the sink -
Springtime was always exciting for me when I lived up North because my supermarket brought Calla Lily plants in for Easter.

One year, I was late in looking for them. By the time I remembered, all that was left was a VERY droopy plant. The manager suggested I take it home, dowse it heavily with water and if it didn't revive, return it for a refund.

As you can see from the above photo/drawing of a different flower, the Calla Lily plant DID revive. Even if it had not survived, I had so much fun, and got so many wonderful photos, I would not have asked for money back.

SELF-REFLECTING QUERIES -
I invite you to look into your life. Are there places and situations where you are caught up in the what's missing... what you think is wrong?

If so, I invite you to look for where in those instances you might find some beauty and/or value.

If you were facing, or internalizing, a "clean canvas" what might be possible for you?

RELATIONSHIP - 
Is there someone in your life, including yourself, where paying attention to, and looking at, him/her/you newly, in a different way, could open up new possibilities. If so, what might be available for you both?
