And I believe you - sometimes it IS the journey we are meant to accomplish, not the destination. Just wish I knew now!<BR><BR>Kim, I adore columbine. Our daylilies are awesome, but truth be told, I love my narcissus best. And my herbs... I'm going to post your last para by my laptop.<BR><BR>Chrys, you may not be religious but, I am afraid, you are spiritual;^) Indeed, you're one of the most spiritual folks I know. That book looks interesting - I'll check it out. And yes, isn't that what we keep telling each other - DIG DEEPER?! <BR><BR>MJ, I know I certainly fear my own creativity, too. I wonder at times - what have I wraught? And is it true? Thank you...<BR><BR>Keep creating folks.

Yet the ability, the gift, has been given and we must do what we can to reach the highest point we can and yet again we know that is not possible.<BR>Nice post and lovely lillies and thanks for the link to Adam Fieled....

And I too have a vegetable garden although the weeds are growing faster than the veggies as our weather isn't cooperating to boost the crops. The berries are coming along nicely though. <BR>The garden party and swap sounds like a fab time. Wish I was there.<BR><BR>There too for your creativity sermon. <BR>There are many avenues to creativity and none without struggle. The beauty is the product. And the path to the outcome.<BR><BR>Lovely post. <BR><BR>~KimKimnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186877685534377957.post-32013269830251696932008-07-15T21:13:00.000-04:002008-07-15T21:13:00.000-04:00The strange things was that after I'd written my b...The strange things was that after I'd written my blog I popped over to yours and found we were both pondering the same issue. You have a more poetic way of saying it though, keep writing Linda you do it well.

I'm not the religious type (as I'm sure you've gathered, lol), and I wish I could have been there for your sermon, it sounds awesome.<BR><BR>There's a book called Writing Alone. A friend of mine has it and I paged through the beginning, and the author said something about our fear of creativity stemming from a deeper fear of truly encountering ourselves. I think that makes sense, in a sort of disturbing way.<BR><BR>I haven't been writing much lately, and I wish I was. Hmmm.
