Your message was so nice to read, and I am grateful for your understanding. This was a very difficult decision for me, but it was the right one for me. It's not like I couldn't change my mind (don't think that will happen, but as they say "never say never") in the future, and know I would be warmly welcomed back by my friends. I have always enjoyed reading your thoughtful comments on my blog and enjoyed following you as well. Maybe we will pass each other again someday. jeanchaneyazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12444143832714907759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019598712693060835.post-28644924158953467862017-12-05T03:40:20.661-07:002017-12-05T03:40:20.661-07:00Jean, I valued your comments highly and loved the ...Jean, I valued your comments highly and loved the connection you helped create and maintain within the Zentangle and Diva community. Thanks for sharing this post too. Reading it and the comments shows gave me some 'me too' moments. We all need to take time to find the Zen in our lives. If that means less blogging, fewer challenges or different artistic pursuits, then so be it. And once a teacher, always a teacher. Teachers need time out too or we burn out. Thanks again for your generous and thoughtful comments over the years.

I have had a long break from challenges as I found they were becoming more important than the Zen and the sheer enjoyment of letting the mind take its own path and letting the tangles happen. So now I am only going to do ones that take my fancy and just enjoy the fun of drawing and my jewellery making which is also fantastic. Have fun and let your creativity follow its own path.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019598712693060835.post-2715358382466466562017-10-23T06:58:39.008-07:002017-10-23T06:58:39.008-07:00Thanks for your understanding, Cyndee.

I think many of us were drawn to Zentangle because we are high energy people who were looking for a way to "calm" ourselves. However, it's just not in our nature so we actually made more demands on ourselves. Doing "challenges" is really not very zen and pushing for numbers on our blogs isn't very zen either. <br />My husband is old school. He is convinced that I was created to wait on him hand and foot, which I lovingly do! He does, however, do most of the cooking. Unfortunately, he has not found it in him to clean up afterwards. How can anyone use that many pots and splash everywhere? Good thing I love him so much :) jeanchaneyazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12444143832714907759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019598712693060835.post-32865413064149692662017-10-21T08:09:07.312-07:002017-10-21T08:09:07.312-07:00It must be catching!

Guilty! honestly, how daft can it get? So I too am giving myself permission to do less. Or, at least, less in the way of Challenges and targets. So i know exactly what you mean - well, not about housework, I detest housework and, fortunately for me, the loved one does it instead. I will follow you on FB and I know I will enjoy seeing your work change and grow. You have been a good friend and encourager to many of us in the Tangled Universe and I am glad to feel that you have been and will continue to be a long distance friend.Maggibeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00830181455820843013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019598712693060835.post-34796859518810576422017-10-20T10:53:26.333-07:002017-10-20T10:53:26.333-07:00Kate, I am saddened to hear about your difficultie...Kate, I am saddened to hear about your difficulties.

Sort of letting your house get so dirty and messy that it makes you feel sick to look at it. I'm already feeling so much less pressured.

It's a lot of work and I completely understand when other artistic endeavors are calling. I'm having a lot of the same feelings, especially since I challenged myself with completing the Inktober drawings doing actual illustrations. I chose not to participate in a couple of challenges I normally do.<br />Anyhoo, best of luck to you and thanks so much for the heads up.
