I love to create, whether in word, at the sewing machine, in the kitchen, around the house. I must be in a constant state of creativity otherwise I can just feel my soul get sad, like I'm letting it down, thus, my mind rarely if ever shuts off.. Currently my obsessive passion is mentally decorating our new home once we move. Crazy I know but I can't stop and I cannot wait to move!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303475796807404950.post-17838072606753120692012-04-19T07:54:21.383-04:002012-04-19T07:54:21.383-04:00Jenn, for me the fun music was the classics and we...Jenn, for me the fun music was the classics and wedding music. I also loved to play all the music from the movies "Mary Poppins" and "The Sound of Music". I loved playing popular ballads like "Breathe" and "My Heart Will Go On" too. I no longer have a piano at my disposal or I am sure I would still play. So I write, like you.

I also was in my mid-twenties when I learned how to play but I can no where near play the classics. Maybe something from the Wizard of Oz (I find all the music from that movie "fun" to play). I taught myself on an electric keyboard--but it was only half the size of a real piano.<br /><br />My passion lies somewhere between writing and photography these days. I love both--and depends on what frame of mind I am in to determine which way the creative juices flow. <br /><br />Lovely post!Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07559573562599754752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303475796807404950.post-91943947600109607902012-04-18T23:16:06.293-04:002012-04-18T23:16:06.293-04:00Once you had a passion, I bet you could get it bac...Once you had a passion, I bet you could get it back.

I worked on it for years!! I started learning to read music in about 7th grade music class and always sang in the choirs all through school. I just made up my mind I was going to do it. My mom died when I was 24, and by then I was able to play just about anything I wanted to. I didn't really like to listen to classical music, but I sure liked to play it. It was challenging and moving. I am so pleased you enjoy my writing and enjoy my blog!! Being a trucker's wife or even a girl friend is a tough life.

With the joy so many of us get from your writing, I can only imagine that your art and music provided that for many around you during those times as well. The most imortant part of it though is that they fed your soul and continue to do so. I believe that those passions, those gifts that we have don't ever go away, they just go dormant until we bring them forward again if needed or we choose to. I'm so pleased to be a recipient of the passin you have for writing right now and your willingness to share it.Amy Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10613446967051981724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303475796807404950.post-35089799499976896392012-04-18T15:41:00.635-04:002012-04-18T15:41:00.635-04:00I've had quite a few different passions in my ...I've had quite a few different passions in my life, but the one constant passion has been writing.Paula Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10040623635956769807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303475796807404950.post-3176240022093847632012-04-18T14:32:10.817-04:002012-04-18T14:32:10.817-04:00Writing is a form of painting, painting with words...Writing is a form of painting, painting with words!

Not writing. ANd I too had always been drawing. So I turned back to the drawing. BUt it didn't last, and that's when I took up weaving which I still do. But now I"m back to wriiting. And through all of that I realized that I do have that passion to create. That to stay alive and in good mental health, I need to be pursuing some kind of creative passion, whatever that might be in the moment.Sandra Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13191775335774130719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303475796807404950.post-49192767115311220322012-04-18T11:59:52.408-04:002012-04-18T11:59:52.408-04:00Oh Kathy I am so envious of your piano playing!

I Love to write, I Love to read, I Love to remake and repurpose things and I Love to see a pile of stuff and make it into something I can either use or just admire.<br /><br />Creativity changes I think with age and also with what your lifestyle allows you to pursue. Time is a factor, money is a factor and need is a factor. But creativity and passion go hand in hand for me and apparently you, too.<br />Really like this post a lot! ☻Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18285427147723972295noreply@blogger.com
