A peaceful moment

   


 

    The everyday hustle and stress of today have the unfortunate ability to make a person lose focus. Focus On and for the daily tasks but also for what means the most to them. Reminding yourself the true value of “what matters.”

            Remembering to enjoy “A peaceful moment.” But what is that, the answer depends on the person and what the person might need. A peaceful moment could be quiet time snuggled in a blanket doing nothing. The moment could be getting distracted with a hobby you enjoy to let your mind relax and feel challenged differently. The moment could come allowing yourself to feel like a kid again and swing on the swing without a care or feeling judged.

            Peace is knowing and believing what you’re facing will have a resolution. You will be courageous to keep looking and moving forward. Peace is knowing in the moment of struggle “you are doing your best.”

            A peaceful moment may be few and go unnoticed. Because the moment could be seeing your kids, laugh, and play. The moment of peace is “there here, happy, and healthy.” However, it can be missed because your attention is directed at the emails you need to read.

            Peaceful moments are never perfect moments. There are moments to remind you of what’s truly important. They are also personal reminders that you are loved, cared for, and are capable. They help you focus toward your personal value, dreams, and goals. The guest of life is not perfect. However, the peaceful moment is enjoying the small and simple things. Like swing on a swing or playing with nerf guns and getting beat by a five-year-old.

Who am I

My name is Kami. About 3 years ago I was feeling lost, confused, and stuck. I was just going through the motion of life. I knew something was missing but did not know what. I was talking to a friend and mentor who gave me a piece of advice that stuck with me. That was “you will find the way to leave a legacy.” I knew I needed a change but did not know what. This is the story of how I have developed a love for “bring to life random and creative ideas. Creating memories and treasures to cherish forever.” This ability has come through creating art through different forms. From wood carving, wood burning, glass engraving, and more. This has impacted my life all because I sat down and was willing to try. I will warn you, grammar and writing are not my strengths, but I will try my best.             February of 2022 I was feeling stuck and knew that I needed more. When I talked to my family and friends about how I was feeling I would get...

How I started

Image
       After doing research and ordering chisels I wanted to try. The process continued. The first question I asked myself was “what do I want to achieve?” The simple question of “what to make?” Through research and pondering ideas what usually comes to mind is sculptures. Sculptures are and can be breathtaking to look at. Unknowing to people is the amount of effort, skill, and tools required. I had many factors to consider for what to make, but the biggest one was “sculptures can need a good amount of space.” Do not get me wrong, they are beautiful and lovely to look at. I realized starting out I needed to focus on “the average person.” What I could create for the average person and “have a function.” I was also in the mindset that I did not want to “create clutter.” Considering that I am currently living in a one-bedroom apartment, with limited space. This was always an adventure when I cooked something. Being just me, I can only eat baked good so much before they ...

Surplus Mayhem

        Exploring a hobby, especially the resources and material that are needed will be very overwhelming. When I started carving wood, I found a lot of information online very one-sided opinion on tools and the material. The hard thing for a person who is “just starting,” the one-sided opinion can be confusing, intimidating, and possibly expensive. I have made the mistake with other ideas in the past overbuying what supplies I thought were needed and then losing interest quickly. I fell victim to the “you have to have in order to be successful.” Which I have learned not to be true and be dangerous. Dangerous in many ways from, being overwhelmed to “where” and “how” to start. I know now that it can limit focus for skill development. Ultimately it risks you from ever wanting to try. In some situation can make a person think “you have to have everything before you can even start,” which to is also not true. Also spending money on things that you don’t use and will tak...
