"Once we clearly acknowledge the soul, we can learn to hear it's cries. - Dallas Willard, Renovation Of The Heart."

It takes courage to pursue our dreams. It takes time and patience to unearth buried treasure. But I believe with all my heart that we must do both.

It's been so long...

Well hello there! Has it really been almost a year since I last posted...I even had to change my sign in password since I couldn't remember it. I suppose I could attribute that to my advancing age as well. I turned 60 since my last post...heading to 61. I have thought about closing this old dusty thing out, (the blog not me, lol) but something keeps me from actually doing that. I have been posting on Instagram regularly and it's been a great place to post photos and to find inspiration without a lot of words. But I think I miss those words, and feelings, and a place to connect with others on a little deeper level. 

I haven't been doing much journaling or painting. Something in me seems stalled. Below are a few that I have done. I'm not sure if the first one is finished, I may go back and add more...or not. I used a couple of Roxanne Coble's stencils in this piece.  

Oh, you can follow me on instagram @maryefreeman if you like.

I love your art journal pages. Too bad you're not doing much of them anymore.

These are beautiful. Sometimes you just need some time out - I did - but journalling always draws me back like a drug! So glad you are posting again.
