possessed by eggs

| 1 Comment

Unlike the day a week ago or so that I was possessed by eggs, today I am working with no distraction, full bore.

It must be the yoga.

Although the day I was possessed by eggs was not to be discarded as frivolous there was creative fruit produced. I was making a breakfast of hard boiled eggs and upon putting the newly boiled eggs in a bowl I stopped in my tracks.

eggs. they are beautiful.

must take picture…

no silly, you don't have time right now.

just one picture…

you know you won't be able to stop at one.

must take picture…

arghhh.

so for the next hour I shot "eggs" in various forms. Of course once crossing that threshold I couldn't stop at boiled. I shot them raw, cracked, shells, no-shells, yokes, whites…

you get the idea.

But today is not that day. Oh, I will create, but I have more administrative work to do. Today I finish the addition of two new artists on the planet. Uploading their beautiful work and keywording each image one by one.

It takes time. But I don't mind. It gives me such joy to give these other creative souls a venue or maybe even a springboard for their creative expression. Today I can rejoice in the creativity of others because the planet keeps spinning.

Today my little business is humming right along. It has been a challenge the last few weeks, but today things look like we will be ok. After what might seem like completely dismantling my dream, new subscribers keep coming. Even though we took a hit, things are looking up. We are not even close to where we were, but that is ok. Time will close the gap. And what is that saying, "you have to break a few eggs…".

Those are beautiful.

Oddly, I have been posessed by eggs too, the last couple of weeks - my own, their viability, a constant running statistical tally of the chances that one of them might turn into something..er, someone. (Not this month.) Maybe your egg photo should be my wallpaper. Making the unseen visible...
