This magnificent drawing is so filled with passion and feeling. In the past, I have described your art as coming from the inner beauty of your soul. This piece is a perfect example of that. There is so much sadness and melancholy on her face. I see you using this creation to work through deep sadness and grief. Losing someone that you care deeply about hurts like bloody hell. It sucks. (I lost three cats in the first three months of 2012) But life goes on and you have a lot more beauty inside of you to share.

Carla Carson replied:

Thank you so much Chris, I needed to hear you.... I have NEVER in my entire life had to deal with such a magnitude of emotion. My God! What a journey. I want to scream so loud. It helps to just let go & not hold in the sobs. I could only do that when Im alone. No one will ever hear or see that from me, only God. I know this will get easier in time, & I know I will get through this with help. It is so hard for me to ask for help. I know I have been through the worst thing that could ever happen & nothing will ever compare. This will make me a stronger person inside & out, a better person even. What a journey life leads us through Chris, an incredible journey.... Thank You so much again for your words. Speaking of cats, my three are always here for me, they are my joy in my time of grief. :)

I just woke from a dream with my husbands voice & all it said was my name "Carla" it woke me from my nap. I was exhausted from everything & everyone. I close all the blinds & shut off the phones & hide in my room & crawl under the covers. I dreamnt of the crazyness of the day & trying to sort through everything & dealing with everything. It gets to be so much... The way he said my name is the way he said my name when he would say it to mean quit worrying, let it go.... He only had to say my name in life & it was just the way he said it meant different things. My rock. My gentle giant. This was my 2nd dream of him.... I just he would come home. My cat at first would sit & stare at the door & wait for him...... Im a mess this minute, but am working on gathing myself as I have to do each day. Life has to go on, it just has to....

Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die. Mary Elizabeth Frye Thank You sweet Jolanta for sending this beautiful poem to me. I want to share it with everyone.

Carla Carson replied:

Thank You always so much Jolanta. Your smiling face makes me smile. Had a meltdown today, was taken to the hospital, but all is well. It was just stress & anxiety left a tight & constricting pain in the middle of my chest. They gave me a nice cocktail & I should sleep so nicely tonight.
