something I need to remember more frequently ~

"Time is my Friend" by Julie Andrews.

This is a lovely song found by our St. Peter's Chorus director, Maxine Moore. We sang it as the final selection for our 2009 Spring Concert last night which was held at Marysburg, Saskatchewan in the Assumption Church.

I always feel so privileged to be part of the Chorus. This is an amazing group of singers - assisted to do our very best by the wonderful Maxine.

And about time - feels like I so frequently am having difficulties managing it. I could choose to remember that "time is my friend".

I am hoping this beautiful carousel which I purchased last Thursday will help me to get a bit more organized in my studio so that I will not be required to spend so much time searching for my art supplies. Organizing my studio space is something I will be trying to focus on in the next while. I did get a bit of a start on Saturday but I need to do more. All in good time.

"To laugh is to risk appearing the fool. To weep is to risk being called sentimental. To reach out to another is to risk involvement. To expose feelings is to risk showing your true self. To place your ideas and your dreams before them is to risk being called naive. To love is to risk not being loved in return. To live is to risk dying. To hope is to risk despair, and to try is to risk failure.
But risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing and becomes nothing. He [or she] may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn and feel and change and grow and love and live. Chained by his certitudes, he is a slave, he's forfeited his freedom. Only the person who risks is truly free."
