On a cold snowy winter day a box became a car - a boat - a cave - a castle.... it was whatever your imagination allowed it to be... thanks for sparky those memories...

If the lid is open and/or we can tip it over to get out and take some field trips, gain different perspectives and collect experiences, I think it's okay to return and enjoy one's space and decorate the inside with those experiences. The box is the launching point, the vessel that is intended to go somewhere.<br /><br />Hey, Julie, just wanted to tell you thank you for the really nice long comment recently. I'm home and doing okay. It's been a tough experience but part of my journey, I guess. Hope you are doing okay with the changes you are making with those around you - I read your post about that the other day but haven't checked back. Just know I am thinking of you.Tumble Fish Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548274352591532536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881365630815076145.post-57047382082923636912010-03-02T22:45:09.191-07:002010-03-02T22:45:09.191-07:00I have always felt safe in the box- it is only now...I have always felt safe in the box- it is only now at the age of 50 that I feel brave to peek outside and discover a whole new creative world.<br /><br />A year since I met you cute Julie at Art Nest- so glad I did- you are the queen of creative :)<br /><br />PS. I missed the last step on my stairs, rolled my foot. 10 days later it hurts enough I decide to go to the doctor and discover I broke my foot!paperbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03191114432315658259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881365630815076145.post-91983219232941685022010-03-02T17:52:45.116-07:002010-03-02T17:52:45.116-07:00what treasures are hidden in that box - open it up...what treasures are hidden in that box - open it up and see!Beth Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06657419180072998502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881365630815076145.post-90221309502614247582010-03-02T15:17:31.304-07:002010-03-02T15:17:31.304-07:00I love all the answers but especially the one by J...I love all the answers but especially the one by Jo James.

If you live your life outside the box, you're doing, but many just do outside the box and not that often. Personally, I try to live my life outside the box and from what I've been told, I'm successful at it!! hahahaha!!<br /><br />The other day I spoke to this homeless woman in the grocery store. She obviously was having a conversation with one of her voice buddies, but she then asked it a question, I had to answer it since I knew her invisible friend was unable to give her the right information. She turned around and said, "Oh thanks, none of my friends knew where to find it." My daughter advised me not to speak to those people since they could be dangerous, which is a possibility she needed to know where she could get cheaper bananas and I told her where!! I was just being polite, but my daughter told me I was being downright crazy!! I do thing like that all the time. I suppose I'm a bit crazy, but quite happy!Georginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06116265151107562546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881365630815076145.post-39123623169415318002010-03-02T08:34:07.973-07:002010-03-02T08:34:07.973-07:00Personally, I think the box gets a bad wrap.

She saw something in me that I didn't see in myself at the time. It was just a basic art class - one of the general ed requirements - but I truly believe that she changed my life.<br /><br />So my version... There is a whole, beautiful artistic world just waiting to be explored outside of that dang box!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06396066237524032892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881365630815076145.post-23263994782447114542010-03-01T19:30:51.772-07:002010-03-01T19:30:51.772-07:00The artist is always outside the box....we are dif...The artist is always outside the box....we are different thinkers, maybe because we are right brainers and a box is square :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13299178174960440302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881365630815076145.post-54002603598099212472010-03-01T15:34:58.514-07:002010-03-01T15:34:58.514-07:00Inside the box I am secure and cozy... outside the...Inside the box I am secure and cozy... outside the box I'm vunerable but..
