Here lately it seems am growing a challenge to think artfully. I put a photo into a show for the "Love" exhibit at church here this month. And the photo sold. As a photographer this is a milestone to have my first piece sold.

Then I have two more photos going on display in a "Documenting place" exhibit. But the newest challenge is for cultivating beauty month we have every year at church. But this year I have two ideas of art to submit. One that will require some antique shopping. So this means I will need to find a woman to go shopping with cuz I lack those antique skills as a guy hahaha.

But the heart of the matter is cultivation. And I really want to express some more of the inners or reflections I have come to as of late. Thinking of it God has been cultivation in me into something of greater beauty. He uses the ugly sinners of the world not the pretty sinners. Well we all are sinners. Some are realistic in how they look in it.

This journey is taking on a whole new level. Most of it due to much reading and pondering.

And the class from How People change is about to wrap up, and I will be taking the class again when it starts up two weeks later. And who knows. I am defiantly now an Journey Becoming.

But in return of the love God has bestowed upon me, I should cultivate in return with the provisions given.
