I do believe that there is something to be found in our dreams. The subconscious mind is quite fascinating. © J Devine Photo Imagery I wanted to share one with you. A while back, I had a dream that I was diving into some type of lake or bay-some type of water and looking for lost things- like my shoes! Weird huh? I don't know if you believe in dream interpretation, but I do. This is not the first time I've had a dream that involves water. It has been a recurring dream. Sometimes I dream about deep water. Sometimes there is a boat involved. This seems to be a fear of water to me. Although it could be a feeling of being lost; or searching for something. Do I have a fear of boats? I don't know. They say the best way to remember your dreams is to keep a journal next to your bed, so when you wake up, you can write down your dreams before you forget them. A dream diary would be a good idea. That way you can look for reoccurrances, symbols, or anything else tha...

And another note of interest: My work is also now available at the Dunedin Fine Art Center in Dunedin, Florida. Stop in soon!

I wrote a post last week that got over 100 hits. Wow! That's the most views I ever had on a single blog post. So it seems that stirring up a little controversy gets people moving. I got one comment where the reader said that she agreed with me, but would never post on her blog about it. I must admit that I'm a bit outspoken,I'm not afraid to ask for what I want, and not afraid to voice my opinions. I believe in being who you are. Be true to yourself, and your own opinions as well. I think these are strong character traits to have, especially when trying to build a business for yourself, because it is not easy- as I am finding out-and it helps to have a little bit of thick skin. I started this blog to share my journey on my entrepreneural explorations into the jewelry making business. I also like to use it sometimes as a journal. I do like to share my "walk" with others, so that maybe someone could learn something from me. I mean, isn't that what ...
