I was trying to enter that place where dreams live. 
That little creative garden within, that leads to inspiration.
I was trying to get lost in the gardens of ideas, peeking around for magic.
You know that place, where garden gates open and lead you to lovely places in your mind...
And then it happens,
The inspiration blooms.
Then you begin to glide along the ideas,
Follow the thoughts
That lead to a new creation.
After a short while, you give birth to that creation.
Creating is like a dream,
No matter what you are creating, cooking, baking, writing, speaking, sewing, crocheting, knitting, quilting, crafting, photographing, planting, gardening, designing, composing, performing, singing, decorating, building, homemaking, flower arranging, drawing, molding, it all leads to the same door. 
The door of creativity leads to a renewed spirit.
We are all artists,
and a dream is where your heart is,
so let your imagination lead you today
to what is waiting inside your heart.
The serenade to this post is A DREAM IS A WISH YOUR HEART MAKES.
So create what is waiting for you,
inside your heart.
Beautiful photos, my favorite is the garden door. Mmmm, I just cant wait for spring!
Karen,
They are so beautiful!! It is cold and icy here. ...m...
What uplifting words of encouragement and support. Some of us create with trepidation...Your thoughts help to push us onward. Hugs
I'm drooling over your photos. It's sunny here and if you look carefully you can see spring already. There are all little green sprouts in the garden. The helleborus blooms and the camellia is about too. Once in a while you can see the fish again in our pond. We have to have a little patience.
Thanks for sharing so much color. Have a nice day!
ps a happy year of the ox to you too!
