Happy Sunday! A Brilliant Moment in Time

I’ve written a lot about the simple pleasures lately and I have to say I love living this slow-paced life that allows me to celebrate them. Some people have so little time they don’t even NOTICE.

One of the many purposes of the High Road Artist blog is a hope of giving those people a moment of quiet calm and a reminder of what already exists in their lives if they only take the tiniest bit of time to appreciate it. It is a gift that always gives back, I promise.

So here’s a simple pleasure from my Sunday morning: the beauty of eggs slowly cooking in Irish butter, an old, well seasoned, carbon steel pan from France (I almost feel transported to a little village in the south of France, don’t you?). That’s real beauty worthy of a photo I’m thinking. Simply gorgeous:

And, of course, sitting down to a fabulous breakfast of eggs, salsa and thick-sliced bacon, with a good friend after a brisk walk at sunrise, the dogs ranging through the pastures in sheer glee:

This is such an amazingly good life and I wish it (or your own version of it anyway) for all of us.

Happy Sunday!

Love to you all,

Jeane

About Me

About High Road Artist IMG 9461 150x150I am Jeane George Weigel, a working artist living in the mountains of northern New Mexico, and I do not think you and I are so different.

Every single one of us longs to know what we ache for, to “follow our bliss” as Joseph Campbell famously put it. You may find yours as an artist, a writer, or a teacher. But I am convinced we all yearn to live what is in our hearts. Some of us spend a lifetime discovering what that is. Some never find it.

This blog is about a journey of self-discovery, yours and mine. I write about the experience of living an artist’s life and share musings and photos as this living experiment unfolds. It is my hope you’ll join in the conversation by writing to me about your lives and I dearly hope something, here, will inspire you.
