"Serendipitous events"-- Woah. How, um, serendipitous. On Saturday, I picked up Byron Katie's book from the library--had just heard about it. I probably won't open it for a while, but I will look for the magic inside!

T-shirt: “Bad case of kleptomania? You should take something for it!” 😁

I haven’t done anything with t-shirts since a well-intentioned but less-than-successful computer-printed iron-on in the 1980s, but based on what I see in public, I am guessing that to design, upload, and order items must be fairly easy these days.

Looking forward to the results!

I believe Thomas Edison commented, “Invention is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.” Global warming may have us all perspiring but not sure of the inspiration? 🤔

I, too, would love to see the Muses on a teeshirt! The tree part? Muses monkeying around in the tree? 🙃

As one who searches on cue like Pavlov’s dog, I just searched “synchronicity,” a cousin of serendipity. “GOOF” offers this: “incidents of spiritual significance that ask us to momentarily dampen our self-obsession and consider the possibility of the divine.” Oxford’s definition of serendipity places emphasis on events happening by chance in a beneficial way, but with no reference to spiritual implications.

Dampening self-obsession, above, is to me a worthy aim. Success rate?? Hmmm, let’s go back to serendipity!

So I await interim stages of the tree’s taking shape. Perhaps even a cat or two in its branches? Penny, too, of course!🙃 Beatles: “I have to admit it’s getting better. It’s getting better all the time.”

I love full-sized sheets of drawing ✍🏼 paper!

And serendipity… We should talk! 😉

Can’t wait to see what emerges… I’m thinking of some of the images I’ve already seen and my imagination is working overtime!

This is so exciting! Anticipation! Exhilarating! Serendipity! Muses in a TREE? Or around a tree. Or swinging on branches made into swings? Yes, I am excited!

Byron Katie ❤️I saw her in Sag Harbor at a private school, years ago when The Work came out I believe.

Cure!
