Making Mistakes. Lighting fires.

It hardly ever happens to me as a creative that I have a vision for something and it works out concretely. My problem is that I am usually not proficient in the medium I choose to adventure with. For example...⁣
⁣
Edibles confound me.⁣
⁣
However, I call this attempt a success. Super fun. Lots of mistakes. But the overall effect was just as imagined.⁣
⁣
Full disclosure... This is not a healthy cake. Not at all. 😁⁣
⁣
I blogged about what I used along with some other Confirmation/Pentecost ideas. Go to my profile link to see more.⁣
⁣
It is the lightest post I have written in a long time... and that was kind of nice for a change.⁣
⁣
I’m feeling a little tired in mind and spirit and this diversion was needed. Working creatively on a project is, for me, a lot like exercising. It is a fruitful respite. I can work in a focused way with great effort... but it is uncomplicated. The resting is in the effort.⁣
⁣
The Confirmation itself was wonderful. I can’t wait for Pentecost!⁣
⁣
Also, Instagram isn’t going to direct you to a government organization in a flag on this post. And that’s a bit of a respite as well.⁣
⁣
My stories this week prompted hundreds of dm’s. It was good to hear from so many of you. You really aren’t alone. There was some negativity but most was constructive with very little real ugliness. But the Confirmation post is a relief today. It certainly is.⁣
