When we step back and look at recent events in our lives we can see a pattern of how everything leds to where you are now. For me, as an example, my intimate relationships. All of them have led me to where I am today, a Lady in Waiting. Its hard to see God's perspective sometimes and it takes a friend to point it out. I'm fortunate, I have a few who together have opened my eyes. I started to reread "Captivating" by Stasi Eldredge reminding myself of who I am in God. And a friend from my holy family loaned one of her books that I've started to read titled "Lady in Waiting Being God's best while waiting for Mr. Right". Now I know that title gets a little cheesey...I thought so too. But the message inside about embracing your singleness is liberating. I can do so much more single than married. I don't need to be dating either. If I follow God's path for me, then "Mr. Right" will being somewhere on the path ahead of me. AS for that "do so much more". I can serve and volunteer without attachments or obligations to others. What a freedom!
Its amazing at how such small realizations can change your entire composure in daily life. :)
This week (and a little late) I have a new OSWOA up on ebay titled "The Emeralds of Spring" which goes along with "The Blues of Winter" and "The Golds of Autumn". I have noticed that for some reason I paint the seasons. This time around I'm making sure they're all faeries and they are all a bit more classical. ;) Tiny of course, but classical. This piece is also my first pregnant woman (I think, I'm trying to remember real hard if I've done one before, and I can't recall, so this is officially the first one...just in case). I'm pretty stoked because the reference I used was only for the face, shoulders, arms, and hands, not the body or tummy. So to those beautiful women who have had the blessing of been pregnant, I hope this piece portrays that time well.
Also there is some new products up at The Fairy Society™ wholesale site and at The Fairy Society™ Inspirational Bath site. I'm very excited about these, for I have waited a long time to see them in actualization. A great gift idea and very unique! I have posted on the left the design file I have for the labels I created for The Fairy Society™, and then below the photo they took of the products together. :) If interested please visit HERE to purchase the set in retail.
