At times over the past few years my self-belief in my chosen path – of being an artisan designer-maker – has wavered when health problems, difficult times and adversity seem to litter the way, but hope, belief, and a love of being creative helps to keep me strong.
Luckily, I do believe that if our journey is too easy, we don’t always appreciate the good times when everything just seems to click into place and works out how we want it to.
Good times are all the sweeter when you’ve had to work hard to achieve your goals and overcome obstacles along the way!
This year has just been a bit of a bummer though and I think it’s now time for my silver linings…
more in my next post,
thanks for joining me on my creative journey,
Sam Rowena, jewellery artist x
Thanks Weaver, yes its been a year of ups and downs, perhaps my life needed a bit of a shakeup too, in order to prepare me to move me in new directions and find/appreciate the silver linings when they come by. Despite the difficult times and set-backs am generally feeling positive for the future. Thanks for the offer too will email tomorrow, shattered tonight after a weekend of fairs and fighting a cold x

very sorry to hear that 2017 has had a lot of ‘litter’ along the road – but your attitude sounds perfect, even so. feel free to contact me via email if you’d like more (free) clarity. like attracts like, as the saying goes, and it seems you are magnetizing support for the next stage of your journey. blessings and warm regards to you. x
