While everyone else hurries off to work, us creatives are sitting in front of their various computers, enjoying this happy moment in time...& now we are filled with this glee & collectively can share & bask in this sunshine...all troubles have fallen to the wayside, because a new baby has been born...case dismissed...we are happy people, artists, & that is the deepest secret...even in a mess we can see that rainbow on the oil slick...people study us because they want to know " how did they survive that ? or that ? and this ? " so that they can use the insight for their own lives...the fascination with the troubling stuff is merely the curiosity to ' how did they find the way out ?'... much congratulations to you & yours, Sari Dear Friend,

why are creatives so unbelievably happy & joyful & sane & optimistic ? because at 7am your daughter gave birth to your second grandchild & first granddaughter! because mother & baby are doing fine…because the labour was so quick that your son-in-law, Andy, made the delivery…because this rare privilege has been shared now with all who read here…let us all celebrate in this moment of joy! While everyone else hurries off to work, us creatives are sitting in front of their various computers, enjoying this happy moment in time…& now we are filled with this glee & collectively can share & bask in this sunshine…all troubles have fallen to the wayside, because a new baby has been born…case dismissed…we are happy people, artists, & that is the deepest secret…even in a mess we can see that rainbow on the oil slick…people study us because they want to know ” how did they survive that ? or that ? and this ? ” so that they can use the insight for their own lives…the fascination with the troubling stuff is merely the curiosity to ‘ how did they find the way out ?’…

much congratulations to you & yours, Sari
