....

It has been almost an entire year since my last update.

My apologies.

It has been a hectic year for myself. I had begun taking a personal development course and devoted most of my time to the studies of that. Its focus was mainly on the mind and challenging myself and old beliefs.

It was no easy ride. However I can happily say, that technically I succeeded with my goal for the course, to change my life so it's different than where I was.

My life now is very different, but I know I can still improve it. What took place over the course of the year? I bought my first car, I overcame the fear of driving and now I drive it like second nature, fear-free. I did a photoshoot, where I got a total makeover and felt and looked like a totally different me. I bought myself the dress I had envisioned for that photoshoot. Hell, I even had a fun time and went for some nude modeling while I was at it, and I felt good about it. I got a new job, that I did not even pursue, it basically came to me. My working hours are fantastic compared to what I had been doing prior, and I even got a raise and health benefits not too long after being in the job. Win, win and moar win.

Over the course of the summer I explored spirituality and contacted a Shaman. I went for a healing and had some strange side effects for a while, but after that felt much more grounded. I discovered my own power animals and feel I have more say what goes on in my life.

Lately I have been looking to my health. I desire to reveal the full potential of my health and feel good in a way I have not in over a decade. I tend to suffer from skin problems, but I've made some progress there even while I'm still figuring this part out.

I have this feeling I want to understand the cause of my acne as it happens. I want to get a real idea of what's going on with the cause of it and once I know, be able to share it with people. I want to share it because I know the frustration of it, even more so when I'm doing everything "right", but it persists. Why? I want to know why, and share that answer with everyone else who is doing it "right" and still enduring it.

Lastly, the art. I have been working on it here and there. The past month or so has been very limited since; 1. I've been studying a lot more, and 2. I have a destructive cat that kinda broke my pen tablet so I haven't been able to create like I used to. My interest in my own project has grown, that is "Reign" and I am thinking about this site and contributing more to it here. I want to do more with this site. For my personal project and my search for my health.

So things are going to change up around here again, but I am keeping the Tea House look. I just love the style, but I am going to be doing a little more work so it's between art and health, both of which are vitally important to me.

I will probably consider a blog section for interactive commentary as well. Getting myself straightened out about what is important has taken some time, but I think it's starting to come together. Then this main section will be for site updates and maybe smaller life updates, like this, only smaller lol. I'll also be sure to not wait another year before my next update. I actually forgot my login info! XD

Take care and g'day,
