Through SouleMama, this morning I found a lovely and simple blog post on SewGreen that took me to the larger story here at the LA Times - the stories of the Children of the Great Depression and their life lessons.
"They learned the value of a wild imagination and honest neighbors."
It's been a doozy of a week - full of highs and lows and challenges (the good ones, as well as the kind that I just want to hide under a couch). This article reminded me to return to my authentic centre - the place where creativity transforms, moving me out and up. Today as I dive into stacks of emails, orders and production prep, I'm thinking about the creative, transforming power that the Great Depression necessitated, and I'm taking this quote with me:
"If you need it get it. If you don't need it - forget it." Thelma May Beets b.1918
Thanks, Thelma May. Today, I'm makin' tracks and filling my bags with grass. How about you?
