Forever it would seem

What things to say, what ways to go with thoughts of the days past. When last I wrote I was unsure as to what kind of work I would be employing. That has been resolved and I am now working for my cousin. It is not hairdressing and for now this is okay. With this I realize that I truly did love my job and hope to go back to it one day but for now I am happy with a less draining job.

I am surprised at how the lack of doing art can cause me to feel less artistic. As of late I feel a loss of inspiration. I fear I have not searched for it and by this I have not found it. Some of you have never seen my art or so you would think but I would like to think that this very blog is a form of my art. It is a glimpse into how I might think and see the world.

I have just come back from a Family reunion of my boyfriends fathers side. Yes, I went for a whole weekend of fun in the sun with the Froese family. In the middle there was a chance for Nate and I both to spend a couple of hours with a large portion of my dads family. To see the extreme of family dynamics was an experience in itself. I was pleased to watch how his family will show love one to another. It is very different than mine. To see this was to learn more about him. I have a new and fuller understanding of what he means. The words he uses somehow surprise me less. I could not draw for you a diagram of the differences but I know they are there.

I am so thankful for the love in his family. He has grown up seeing love and being loved. This means two things. One: he has learnt what love is. Two: he has learnt to give and receive such a gift.
