Now I know, had I chosen this path, I might have gotten somewhere, but the path I did choose, was the best for me. With no stress of livelihood, I get to follow where my curiosity leads. I am not out on a limb any more. I am an artist, a painter. Five years ago, I was just a retired designer. People like having an active, professional identity--at least I do. And it has nothing to do with money. It has to do with skill. I'm strengthening those every day and loving it, just like you.Linda Rothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02833417183469551153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2153983949078742556.post-57559130275139705182014-10-19T23:52:45.150-04:002014-10-19T23:52:45.150-04:00I am so very impressed with how much you are worki...I am so very impressed with how much you are working on honing your skills [which were nothing to sneeze at before!] Bravo, Linda!!Studio at the Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02900305750995808779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2153983949078742556.post-1051518547410553392014-10-19T22:16:09.739-04:002014-10-19T22:16:09.739-04:00Thanks Hilda.
