When I was a little girl, I was fascinated with photography. I had my little Kodak Ektra camera and I would take quick snaps everywhere I went. The most exciting part of the process was always going to the drug store to pick up the developed photographs. Back then there was no one hour photo. It took about 5 days and the anticipation would drive me crazy! I would constantly ask my Mom if they were ready yet. Then I would revel at the surprise shot. The one that wasn’t anticipated. A casual shot that turned out to be a “wow”. Today it isn’t much different. I still take snaps wherever I go whenever something catches my eye. And then when I get home, the anticipation of downloading them on my computer is the same as when I was young. The only difference is now I wait mere minutes instead of days. Recently I had a beach getaway where I took over 300 shots and this was the “surprise”…the “wow” shot….

I have a lot of artwork stored in my computer. I’ve listed some pieces, only to take them down later due to lack of interest. But what I have found is that I can continue to work with a piece at a later date to create something entirely new and fresh that DOES get a lot of attention! This is a very new process for me. In the past, when I was done, I was done. I never went back to an old piece to rework it. I think that the digital age has really helped me over this hump. Out with the old and in with the new!

I am not an alcoholic. In fact, I rarely drink and when I do I am such a lightweight it is laughable. A half a glass of wine and I am good. However, I have done a 12 step program. I am a recovered Bulimic. Bulimia is a form of food addiction. I have not binged/purged in over 20 years. It was a long and difficult journey and I got some professional help too.
These days I have a very healthy outlook on food and even at Thanksgiving keep my portions to what is right for my body. I no longer crave the physical pain of overeating to mask the emotional pain from childhood abuse. When I feel hurt, I grab a paint brush instead of a cookie. I am healed.
The Serenity Prayer was a big part of my recovery and I still repeat it in my head whenever I am feeling stressed. It is a very calming mantra.
For all of those who have dealt with addictions and have overcome, I solute you! For those who are still struggling, I dedicate this piece to you. May you also find the peace, courage and wisdom you need….
