Today my little girl is making her Christmas list for Santa. I have one too.
I want:
People that don’t go away.
People that know how to play.
The time to spend with the people who don’t go away and know how to play.
Time to spend by myself painting pictures that the people who don’t go away and know how to play inspire me to paint.
People that understand I need to go away to paint.
People who are happy to see me when I return.
People who are okay with me being me.
People I don’t have to chase (because I’m tired of chasing).
People I don’t have to hide from.
People that I can touch.
People that love me for being me…
…and people that let me love them in return.

That’s a very powerful list Anjolie. I notice that when I’m really specific like this, I generally make it happen for myself. I think you’ll get what you want about this. I’m sure that at some point you’ll notice that things have changed while you were paying attention to something else.
((hugs)) Good for you.
Your picture is beautiful too.
