“What are you most grateful for right now?”
“God.”
“What about God?”
“His wisdom. I asked for his wisdom. I’m an artist, writer. What can I say, I don’t guide by the left brain all the time or the right brain in my emotions but I have made poor choices sometimes by putting myself 2nd…or sometimes 3rd in my life. I asked God for wisdom and it seems like things are different right now. I’m not a co-dependent person, at least that’s what I was taught by a friend who’s a psychologist. He said, ‘You have a big heart. It’s hard to know when to help and when not to help.’ I feel better about that now.”
“I think maybe I have that same challenge.”
“Well you’re an artist. I know how it is. I take pictures too. I paint, I’ve had art shows. I’m a published writer. I’m thinking about going back to what I like, not what I’m supposed to do, but what I like.”
“What do you like?”
“I like art. I’m thinking about doing a children’s book. I’m gonna do the writings and drawing myself, I have the story already.”
“What’s the story?”
“It’s about a little girl who travels through time, but it’s very different than the ones you normally see. She learns a lot of lessons in life. My friend read it and said he thought it was better than Harry Potter! I’m not saying it is better than Harry Potter but it’s nice to hear someone say that.”
