There will always be someone better off than you and someone worse off. You've got what you've got...now make the best of it. That was the sermon I heard this week and I was trying to keep that in mind....that is until I went to the opening for the Small Works show at the Attleboro Arts Museum on Sunday. I had two pieces that got in...I didn't get any awards of merit or juror's choice ....but I got in....that should be enough right? But still it was a bit depressing. It is so hard to look around and see work that I feel is so much better than mine. It makes me feel like I'll never make anything as good. I want to make the best work...I want mine to be the best there. Well that's what everyone wants right? I just have to work and work and work and do the best I can. You've got what you've got - make the best of it.
Ok...so enough of that....here is a picture of the windowsill behind my desk at school....we are working on a project where we made flower pots and planted then and then we are selling them to raise money for The Family Resource Center in Attleboro. The pots look beautiful with plants in them!!! I think that the Batman cookie jar in the back agrees!!!
