There is always a way to follow your creative dream. If there ever comes a time when you find yourself unable to move forward with your current crafty plans, realize that you can still do what you love.
Whether your momentary delay is due to financial, health or disability concerns, the important thing to focus on is that this situation is temporary. It is only temporary because you have yet to find your creative alternative.
When you encounter a block of any kind, be it in your creativity or in life, it is best to start to see the situation as only transitory. When you take this point of view, you now open yourself up to finding solutions and/or new paths that further your creative goals. Ask yourself, If I could find a way to complete my goal, how would I? Now, all you have to do is allow the answers to come to you; try them out and see what works best for you and follow your heart.
Happy creating and Happy Valentines Day!
Namaste,
Abby
