[Woodcarver] new projects

[sally nye]

Hi Maricha,

I just wanted to say I'm enjoying this thread.  Thanks for posting.  
Your father was wise to instill these thoughts in you.  They are life's 
lessons and are timeless.

For me, inspiration and encouragement come through all the senses and 
probably mainly the "6th" sense.  It would be difficult to analyze.  On 
a new project, quite often my worst hurdle is to simply "begin."  I 
always say if I get "myself" out of the way and let the "divine plan" 
be fulfilled things go much better.

Thanks & I'm enjoying listening ;-)

..... what i call ....artisan.... in spanish when broken up into  arte 
- sano gives you the answer arte is art, sano is health.  when the war 
was on and i was only a 6/7 year old brat, we had to climb a wall about 
2 and half meters up as the incendiary bombs were on top of us, so my 
father and i had to climb this wall. i knew i could not climb it as i 
was terrified and my father said ...do not let fear make a slave of 
you... you can do it together with me... so he calmly said to use his 
knee and body as a staircase to climb over. up to this day i do not 
know how we both did it, but we did jumb the wall and found safety.  it 
is engraved in my mind that nothing is impossible, do not be afraid to 
try and you will find things come together as you grow. lateral 
thinking is within us all,  so as an artisan ... or arte sano we grow 
with passion in our love of art and our health is grows and we share 
these treasurers. 
cheers
