“Every limit is a beginning as well as an ending.” George Eliot 

MAY THE CIRCLE BE UNBROKEN

Each of our lives is like a story. Stories usually have a beginning and an end. When you are born and when you die.  In between are small inner paragraphs of stories making up your full life story.  Today many of you can share these short stories from your life... and right now there may be high school teachers, college professors, life coaches, or even headhunters that want the real story of your past including accomplishments, the goals you have achieved, about your first job, or if you are focused on being a leader. They want you to share it all and 'beef it up', evoking empathy along the way to make your story important. People will take note to how you relate to others and to your responsibilities in your life and your career. 
YOU

Is it really all about you? Life itself? What happens later in life? Will people remember you or your stories? 

Have you ever heard the song "May the Circle be Unbroken..." ? It is about a person's mother dying and they are unsure how things will move on in life. Will they reconnect in heaven later? All the many brothers and sisters are crying and sad. Her life story seems to be as a beloved mother that cherished her family, took care of them, gave of herself for them, sang to them and then the time came and God called her home. The singer reflects upon the circle of God's love if they will be rejoining their family and friends in the afterlife of heaven.   Will the Circle be Unbroken?

Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.

 
I found an excellent short read about the woman that wrote the song. You can read it hear and listen to some wonderful people in several different vocals singing the song.  Click Here. 


Hope your summer is going well. It is HOT in Texas... way over 100 degrees.  Going to be close to 110 mid week. I look at summers as a path to fall, I have to make the best of these hot days and stay focused going forward. The weather with the seasons is another circle in your life God created. It would be harsh if that circle ever stopped.  I look forward to seeing my precious family in heaven. May the Circle be Unbroken... 

When he established the heavens, I was there; when he drew a circle on the face of the deep,." Proverbs 8:27

Mixed Media Collage Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Horse Collage Fall 2013  12 x 18 inches Mixed Media on Canvas.  This was an intentional paint to imitate one of the 100 ponies I did in 2012. That poor little 8 x 10 pony was loved by a company to do very large prints and it was not here for me to even use to scan... so I created something with the same heart, a kindred spirit. The underlays are pages from a western book and then torn papers of different varieties were added along with stains of paint and purposeful areas of paint.  This would not be a painting I would do today, but the goal was to capture the spirit of the first painting.

Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2010 My Website   Thinking ahead to the Thanksgiving celebration next week, I remembered back to those previous dinners that I cooked, served, ate quickly, and cleaned up.  This is how I felt.  It is probably strange...even for me but I had the best fun sketching it out and painting it. We lost another dear family member this week. She has celebrated her 'continuation' day and is now with her mom and dad and her other cousins.  She leaves behind a family that will always celebrate her gentleness.  My aunt was special to all of us. She loved each of us dearly for who we were and was always ready with a hug or a 'good job'.    My memories are of breakfast pastries smeared with butter on top. It was not like they were not sweet enough as they were, but at her small kitch...

Sleeping Cowboy . Ernest Hemingway . Sunday, a day of rest . Western Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

   © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2019 Sleeping Cowboy Commissioned Painting for one of our oldest friends. 2004  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW MY BLOG  ON INSTAGRAM     @lauriepaceblog Available Paintings by Laurie Pace          “I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?” Ernest Hemingway  I really enjoyed painting this scene. It was restful to me as the artist  and loved by our friends.  Sunday is the day of rest. I smiled when I found this in archives and thought it perfect for this day.  If you live in Texas you know that we still have 'rules' about not selling liquor before noon.  If you live in Texas and are in your late thirties and up, you might even remember Blue Laws.   Stores were simply NOT open...
