Maybe that's why I get so into my art, I never realized it until I saw you write it. I do the same thing... get into it and I almost forget I have pd, forget to take my pills. forget to eat, go to the bathroom.... what a wonderful feeling, we are so lucky to have this outlet, I have so much creativity waiting to come out, I am so grateful every day that I can still do my craft ,be creative, and earn a living , and love what I am doing on top of it all. I guess it makes up for the times like last Sunday ,when my mind and spirit wanted to dance, but my body wouldn't move the way I wanted. I left early. depressed...oh well I did get a couple of songs out of it , but my rock n roll soul could've danced all nite. frustrating...I guess I'll count my blessings and be grateful for what I can do, not what I cant do.. www.mosaicmadness.com check it out.
