Well, inspired from the word of the water goddess, I’m here to pontificate on how i am able to live my dream life now, and not just in the future (although I’m getting awesome vibes and messages from my future self these days…)

So, when I tell people about my life these days they usually kind of sigh and tell me how great I’ve got it. But I swearz there’s more to this #vacationlife than just sitting around and drinking margaritas on the beach!

I have arranged the past year and this coming one to where I live between San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, and Galveston island, (near) Texas. I’m an artist, an art and gardening teacher, and a permaculture evangelist (check out my description here from my permaculture graduation presentation if you are into saving the world)

I make art and teach about it, and my other favorite thing growing food and veggies, so I often feel like my life is a big vacation. When I’m not in Mexico making/teaching art, I’m in galveston making school gardens and teaching kids about nutrition and growing food and sustainability. Of course I throw a lot of art in too.

As awesome as my life is, I way too often get overwhelmed at how many things I have going on…so an exercise like this really cheers me up! Even though it’s a lot of work I have to remember to celebrate what i have going!

The Water Goddess’ words really struck me tonight. The key is to be so in the moment that failures are successes. I am digging this mindset and all the support, thanks to all!
