Hi Blog,
This week has been an amazing ride of ups and downs. I was so high last Saturday I could barely get out of my own way, then the crash came on Sunday...down to severe and deep depression. Tuesday brought some relief, but by Friday the worst hit me between the eyes and it was only through working with some of the best kids I have for art students, the kindness of a dear friend, and some lovely words from a sweet lady here that I could pull myself away from the edge of hell. Who you are and what really counts is inside of you, you just need to see it, find it, nurture it. I couldn't do any of those things until now. It has taken me years to pull my own ass out of the fires and jaws of the abyss, but now I have a firm hold on the rim and can feel the strength in me to pull myself out. That is why I will never leave this site, because there are people here who know the same torment I have fought against and understand. I love all of you here, EVERY ONE OF YOU!
You all make life sweet and beautiful and precious. You are one of the reasons I still have strength to pick up a pencil and draw after getting out of bed in the morning. You make it possible for me to carry on and not give in to the beast. Dark and Bright and Gentle Blessings to all of you!
