The Bonnet House Museum
Hello, Tigers! This evening after I finished at the art gallery I decided to go over to the Bonnet House Museum to walk in the gardens. I took my sketch book with me, but I never ended up drawing. I just quietly walked the paths of the beautiful tropical gardens. I love to escape alone and just walk quietly. I use to do this as a child all the time in the woods behind my house in Pennsylvania.
The Bonnet House is a historical museum that sits on 35 acres located right by A1A and Sunrise Blvd. Most people don't even know that it exists. It is a haven for artists, musicians and writers to come and be creative. Today I saw many artists painting and drawing in the gardens...but I felt like walking and thinking.
As I walked along the paths I thought about my 'path of life'. At times in life, I feel that I am on the right path going exactly in the right direction while other times I lose sight of the path and feel lost. I know that I am lost and off my path of life, when the journey becomes arduous and I feel weak. I feel as though my walk is plodding and heavy...the scenery becomes dull and unfulfilling.
Once I come to the realization that I have veered off my path of life I quickly look for an opening of light ahead...it's usually right around the bend, but you have to look for it. The light and the opening is usually where you find the path. Then I hop back on the path and continue moving forward.
So today as I walked along the paths of the gardens at the Bonnet House I gave much thought to where I am going in life. I contemplated quietly if I was on the right path. I always know that I am when I feel happiness and peace. Today was full of happiness and peace.
I am going to paint tonight. I will write tomorrow. Thank you all for all the emails. I love you guys. My personal email is attached to the contact page of this site. Love, Ms. B.
