Dear Friends,

It is a new year. Locally school is starting today. The kids are getting onto the buses and heading to their first day of school. They are a bundle of emotions. What will this day bring? Excited about new possibility, maybe a bit anxious or maybe sadness with a beautiful summer ending. I remember stiff new shoes, new wool clothes that I wanted to wear the first day of school and yet it was too early to be wearing anything wool. Many emotions, I feel the same way, my art classes, that I teach, will start tomorrow. These seasonal transitions and school transitions have always been a stuggle for me. I feel as though I should be able to just move ever so easily in my life from one thing to another. My moves are not very graceful but jerky. What about granting myself some space to ease into the new pieces? September 18th is the Jewish tradition of Rosh Hashanah, it is their New Year. There is something so perfect about this time of year being the "New Year". It is also my new year. New art classes, new kids, new schedules, and new opportunities. Just Breathe.
