I thought I knew what I would be working on, see my previous post, but Inner Artist has other plans! I know they're from her because I can feel the fire burning!
It all started this week with my every 6 month visit to my dental hygienist, who has become a friend. She was upset with the political decisions that she feels will destroy her childrens' future.
Since I don't have children, I don't have quite her same sense of urgency. But I began to think about what I do care about regarding the future. And I realize that My Next Generation is wild animals and plants.
This has been with my my entire life. As a child I made a vow that I didn't want to live in a world that had no more wild gorillas. (Yikes, my time is growing shorter!)
What did I 'know' when I was four or five - about the future of the world? about what was most important to me? What does it mean to care this much about wild animals? What actions does this call me to commit to?
These questions and others about My Next Generation will be in my mind as I work on my BJP for this year. I will blog about them and post pictures here.

Isn't it just the way with beads and any other creative thing you do. It speaks from within and soon it takes you over.
I like your new direction. I can tell with you, as with me, this concern is an inner passion.
Nice to meet you.

I am sooooooo happy you're with us for this year's BJP, have resurrected your old blog (Beadsmitten and Beadlust!) and are following your inner muse toward your next generation! Yay!!! Hugs, Robin
Couldn't stand the typo in previous comment... a delete and re-do fixed the problem (I hope)!
