Acceptance is an expletive...

but sometimes it must happen.  And you have to let go of the fact that you are not living the life you intended (the latter phrase stolen from Matthew Fox).  Please just grant me the wisdom to not fight anymore, but rather to just accept what is.  The decision to go by 'B' in class (and often outside of class as well) also reflects 'just be [B.]'

Speaking of Matthew Fox, more soon from his book Creativity.  I love it so far.  I will blog about his words from the conference in a separate post, but his invigoration of the 'right brain' with creativity may be just what I need.  I was moved to tears by art at Oberlin's museum, now it's time to deal with the breaking of my heart by news headlines with making some art of my own.  I will call it the 'art of exploitation.'  I'm not certain of the medium, probably mixed, but I am excited to start.

I am also excited to start my creation of home design that is repurposed as much as possible and the nearest to low impact that it can be.
