“The Room of Flowers” (USA, 1894) oil on canvas By Childe Hassam

This oil on board of a jazz scene has so much electricity and energy. 22 x 27” matted and framed. The image is moving. #jazz #jazzpainting #abstractpainting #abstractexpressionism #oilpainting #musician #musicartist #africanamerican #artwork https://www.instagram.com/p/CH85kNeHiBZ/?igshid=m5wvmdojipl4

I find it sad that by not talking about who I sleep with, that makes me mysterious. There was a time when I would have been called a gentleman.

Promenade at Sunset, Paris, Childe Hassam, 1888-89

Be okay with not getting what you want right away. Be okay with things staying as they are.

That may be easier said than done, but strangely there is also a certain sense of peace that comes along with giving up the fight.

When you've been trying to FORCE something to happen quickly, you are expending a LOT of mental and emotional energy! As a result you end up feeling worn out and depleted.

On the other hand, surrendering to the universe's higher wisdom and letting go inspires a sense of calm detachment and peace in the present moment. You realize that you're still okay, even without this thing you want so desperately.

Letting go does not mean you won't get what you want. It means you are choosing to know that you're okay without it right NOW. It means that the arrival of it will be a great bonus, but your inner peace and well-being are not dependent upon it.
