Not So Small Pleasures

I was going to write a little bit about the small pleasures in life like a cup of coffee in the morning, but then I realized that my coffee isn’t a small pleasure at all. In fact it’s rather large.

It Was a Cold and Stormy…

I’m only telling you what you already know, I realize: that we are surrounded by beauty in all its forms every single day. I just like to write about it to remind each of us to stop for a few moments and take in the small pleasures…

Horse Energy

Here he is at my feet, deciding to let well enough alone. And what a great example he makes. How much better the world would be if we could all rise above our natures, find acceptance and give the other space to be.

Good Morning!

The storm has passed us by it seems, but it is still a very nippy morning. There’s a fire blazing in the wood stove and the kitchen is filled with the fragrance of pancakes on the griddle. It is truly a very, very good life!

Vote Today! Honor Our Ancestors

I thought I would honor the memory of these strong women by posting their story today on election day. Every one of us, Democrat or Republican, man or woman, need to get out and vote.

Letting Go, the Natural Order of Things

This seems to be a natural order of things, the cycle of life, birthing and dying, coming and going, yet we human beings often have trouble with the idea of letting go. We hold on, sometimes fiercely–to old ways of being…

Small Pleasures: Finding Joy Where it’s Least Expected

I got up REALLY early today, which I love. My clock said 4AM but we all know it was really 5. Welcome to the biannual time change everybody (except for those of you in Arizona)!

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.
