A big new journey begins today, how ironic since my life journey began 24 years ago. I am sitting on the BC ferry heading to Victoria; my new home for the next few years. This has been the biggest commitment in my life so far that is not in my home town and for a period long enough in the future that I cannot see or predict. I want to share my gratitude for all that I am thankful for today. I feel SO loved by my family and friends not just on my day of birth but everyday and send my love right back. I hope all of you know how important you are in my life. I want to thank my body for being healthy and strong. I am thankful for all the “things” in my possession that somehow all fit into the back of a vehicle! I am thankful for the ocean that I get to wake up to every day and how insanely beautiful this place I call home is. I want to thank my hands and my mind for constantly producing creative work. Everyone is gifted with talents and I am thankful for mine. USE IT, SHOW IT, BE PROUD OF IT.
Victoria, get ready for me because I am ready for you. I cant predict my future but I can predict that when I think back to my time here, I know it will be a huge influence in my life for growth, change and creation. I look forward to the people I will meet, the places I will discover the things I will learn and the adventures that await. To my brain… you have a lot of information coming your way so make some room. I cant wait to learn more about nature, animals and our beautiful ocean. Take more moments in nature to be thankful of what it does for us and what we need to do for it; share and love. So to top off this ridiculously emotional day of happiness, love, joy, excitement and also being scared shitless… bring it on life. Today I launch my website to show, share and sell my creations with all of you. Every year I will choose a local charity to donate 25% of the proceeds from my art and the rest to support me though my education. It all comes around, in this beautiful circle of life. Thank you for your support. P.S- This is early stages of my website! More art to be posted and shared soon :) Britt Buirs Be artsea. www.oceangypsea.com
