Quick updates here and there occasionally, but I'd rather hear ways to bring about a positive impact.<br /><br />Which is what I think you're saying in this post here, and it's great! Thank you for sharing the Lamott quote, I hadn't seen it before but I like it.<br /><br />And your artwork is lovely! As always :-)christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13846609525167770561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1655644772054981517.post-78629204577529207502010-06-10T21:50:37.243-04:002010-06-10T21:50:37.243-04:00I try to dance in spite of the absurdity of life. ...I try to dance in spite of the absurdity of life. I love the Anne Lamott quote. I so admire how she's overcome many obstacles to find her own happiness. We all get pulled down sometimes by all the negativity and destruction around us. I have to take a "news fast" every so often so I can get away from all of it.ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08748316725457763377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1655644772054981517.post-34693556258151074012010-06-10T21:48:27.440-04:002010-06-10T21:48:27.440-04:00Dearest Eliza, i am dancing with you!!

I suffer from the same dismal thoughts at times, like "what's the point of conserving my use of paper and plastic when there are millions of gallons of crude oil being pumped into the ocean?" so I appreciate being uplifted : )Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
