It's such a rewarding feeling to have participated and influenced them in growing into successful and happy young adults. They all seem to rule the world these days and its' there for the taking! xxshabbyfufuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02306547264571758892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214749393367392928.post-20967976912410159462015-10-23T09:34:19.676-04:002015-10-23T09:34:19.676-04:00You wrote: "I am struck by the fact that som...You wrote: "I am struck by the fact that some people in my circles, the ones that follow a life path based upon their creative abilities, find validation in many forms like being published, or having their shops receive "Best of" awards....yet it hasn't translated into financial success or security for them. It has been so interesting to see how some in this field can get leverage and find super success while others, equally talented, are still working on gaining traction as far as the financial pay off where their creativity translates into the almighty dollar. Tough to do, but certainly very possible, especially when their talent is through the roof. Its a frustrating fact in this industry...." Excellent point, Amy! :-) But change a few words here and there and you've described the life of many, many a musician. This IS life for those of us in any area of the arts. We just keep on going and going....some day, maybe........ ;-) CK SNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18283088329151401409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-214749393367392928.post-35532636526114052382015-10-23T08:27:46.541-04:002015-10-23T08:27:46.541-04:00Enjoyed this post so much, Amy.

True comrades!<br />I know first hand about this puppy training business. Faffi is a full time job these days, and <br />chandeliers will have to wait.<br />I feel big things are in store for you, Mathew, and Justin.

Just telling it like it is and leaving out many wonderful parts like our first day together today at the dog park.
