I photographed my "Cosmic Disc" yesterday and then contemplated the hanging abalone and flat pearl. Hmmm. Maybe the disk would be better with a single round turquoise bead in the middle instead. Or, maybe I like it better without any beads. So, I cut them off! Now, I think I regret my choice. Why not just make more disks and sell them in different ways (as I said in high school... "Duh!"). At least it's an easy fix, unlike a mistaken stroke of the brush on an oil painting. Maybe that's why I'm not painting these days....too much pressure! Though every time I stroll though a painting exhibit a lump forms in my throat then I burst into tears. Maybe I'll paint in the meadow when I'm old and gray.
