I Am A Spinner

As I am sitting here enjoying spinning this beautiful, but very unruly cloud of oh so soft wool this morning. I decide that I am just going to loosen up and not try to control this.

You see, it is full of short cuts and tangles, some smooth, some thick, some thin, some rough, some bumpy... and it occurs to me, LIFE is like that!

We have all of the above, good and not so good, smooth and not so smooth, a lot of bumps in the road.

That doesn't make it bad, it makes it a challenge. When we learn to work with it and give it permission to just "be", it will result in something beautiful.

The raw fiber now spun into finished yarn illustrates that once it was a basket of confusion, but add to it some time, some love, perhaps a hint of color, and I can prove that in the end, perfection happens.
