I finally finished that piano piece I've been working on. I've named it P.S. I Love You because it illustrates my feelings exactly in the sense that it's shy, kind of like a hint, but not outright bold like a downright declaration. I am ecstatic. I can't wait until I have the chance to play it for the man that inspired it.
I told him last night that I finished it. He didn't even know I write music. I also told him that I also write stories & poetry in addition to music, & can also draw & paint. He asked me what I painted & I said when I paint, I like to paint landscapes, preferably mountainscapes. He said he loves landscapes. He also suggested that I paint the view from his front porch. I think this is a fantastic idea! I haven't painted in several years, so I'll have to buy a couple canvases, a palette knife, & acrylics.
I am so happy that I've been able to get back into being creative. I've begun working on the story of my life, finally. I figured, I might as well start now so that I can write out as much as I can before I forget it. I know I can always add to it should I remember something new. I think it'll be a therapeutic way of getting everything out. I actually became inspired to write it out through my Christmas present from my mother this year. It is a memoire that my cousin Bubba Stahl published this last year. He's a Baptist preacher in Texas & has been all over the State pastoring different churches. Right before we moved from Boerne, he got involved in missionary work in Uganda, & that has become a whole separate ministry. He's now the pastor for the First Baptist Church in Corpus Christi.
While reading that book, I've realized how much I've missed out on. Both of his boys are grown & married with multiple children. I totally missed out on that. It makes me sad that I did, but I'm happy for them. I also remembered things from my life that I had forgotten, which is why I began writing, trying to remember as many details as I can.
I am just excited to have my creativity back. It seems like it's been dormant for a while.
