SA, you're a smart cookie.  Yes, it's to be mindful in the 
moment.  Not the future and not the past.  The moment.  It's also 
sometimes about tolerating discomfort.

I just finished the painting.  It was finished, but not quite.  My 
favorite experience is to paint the eyes.  It's then that it comes to 
life and I become totally distracted.  I can hardly look away from 
what I'm seeing.  If I paint them too early all might be lost.

I sometimes get very lost in a song too.  Well recently I've been 
very lost in a song about eyes.  (It's punk and drones on, but I love 
it.) It's the song 'The Heart Never Lies', by McFly.  It was a bit 
hard to get, but I have incredible, wonderful allies.  So I just 
floated through the song and finished the painting.

Life is life,

Marsha
