Friends with Glory
I am delighted by my Pleasure Embellishment project.
I wrote about it last week.
My family is in on the challenge.
We had a date with our girl on Friday to see “Secret Garden” at the Mac-Hayden Theater over in Chatham, NY. First we had dinner at our friends Max and Linda’s restaurant,www.local111.com, in Philmont where I saw this fab steeple. I could spend my life photographing, doodling swirls and drawing weathervanes and steepletops.
Then, my garden walk on Saturday morning before I had my tea and Rumi poem of the day- yeow. Am I ever glad I got out there.
Look fish, you are already in the ocean.
Just swimming there makes you friends with glory.
by Rumi
What embellished your day?

Oh Dear Andrea! Thank you for stopping in! I use a great collection of Rumi edited by Coleman Barks titled “A Year With Rumi”. Isn’t that a fantastic line? I bet we could do a little collage each on that line. What do you say to an illustration playdate? I’d love to play with you! Love, S

Rumi is da Boss. And Hafiz is da Second Boss. You know Hafiz, right? We are in that big big ocean and you are a wave and I am a wave and…the waves are gone…we are just water, everywhere.

Kath! I am about to put out a tiny collage challenge for that Rumi phrase. Andrea from Canada/ABC Creativity wants to play. Maybe you will be in? I will post about it later. Gotta stir the apricot jam that is on the stove.
Love and hugs and maybe I will see you in person SOON! Love, S
