Fall Semester starts tomorrow. The feeling isn't really excitement in our home, I'm trying to change that. The Artist is feeling chained to the Provider... I need to let him know that it's OK that I'm playing the role of the provider right now. It's so hard for him to let go of that.
I left him a love note and a note of encouragement. I hope he takes it to heart and really feels that I mean to be by his side through EVERYTHING.
I am also hoping he will be inspired by his Professors to reach higher and dream bigger and just go for it.
The biggest link in our chain now is TIME. We really need more of it. I know I've said it before, but it's hard being out west without anyone to help us. We miss our families and haven't 'replaced' them here. So in a sense we are alone in our big adventure. This is partially our own fault, I am sure there are people in our world that would help us with time if we asked, but we don't ask. We just keep to ourselves, I call it being shy. But I also think it's because we are afraid to let other's into our lives. What would they think of our decision to sacrifice steady income and a 'normal' schedule for a dream? I did it because of love, because I KNOW that The Artist is a true, raw, passionate talent that the world needs, but will other's understand? Would they be willing to be our 'replacement' family and help us raise our girls and be successful? I don't know...
