Murray House at Christmas
There are so many strange things going on right now. It will make a good book some day. Sometimes things that you are going through at the present , will later on look like a turning point, a bad dip, or a great thing depending on how your life turns out. In other words, crappy stuff turns out for the best, and seemingly great stuff turns into a nightmare. You never know.
All I know is that things have been quite an adventure, and I’m still alive today.
More as this weird roller coaster develops.
I’m trying to get a video post out before Christmas, but who knows. If I don’t, I wish you all the weirdest and happiest of holidays.
your house looks super cozy
” You learn you can do your best even when it’s hard, even when you’re tired and maybe hurting a little bit. It feels good to show some courage.”
Joe, you have more courage than most…May you also find some peace over the holidays, surrounded by your beautiful family.
I know that feeling. It seemed like everything that could possibly go wrong in my life went wrong this year. I lost my mother, I maxed out on my student loans so now I have to pay monthly payments to finish school, which caused me to have to temporarily put college on hold for a quarter(not fun at all). For the time I wasn’t with my peers and the instructors I was deeply depressed. Sitting at home in the middle of nowhere is no fun. I missed the critiques, the projects, all of the friends I had at the school and just college in general. I love the artistic feedback, nothing is more valuable to me than the opinion of a fellow artist.
Luckily for me, I weathered that storm and now have a promising job at a resort, I will be starting back at school in January and working through college the hard, yet beneficial way. I love what I do, nothing is more fulfilling than to create something you feel very special about and I pour a little of myself into every character I create. I am sad that this will be my first Christmas without mom around but I will think of her fondly, as she would want me to be happy. I hope the holidays are as wonderful for you as they are for me. I will continue my path and hopefully one day, I can share my vision with the world. Do take care Joe and keep in touch.
Beautiful home, Joe! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Joe! Wishing you and your family a great holiday.
Best wishes for a happy and prosperous New Year.
