The Sum of Here and Now

I am undergoing a major overhaul of my creative space again.
We will keep rearranging until it is adequate. The eventual goal is to have five easels set up, so I can flit between each as the layers dry. Five seemed to be my magic number the last time I had dedicated art space, I intend to start from there. As plan to add more working space. (Read as take over half of the living room). I marvel at the way I have ended up here. Seemingly unconnected events and choices add up to the sum of here and now. I feel a tremendous sense of gratitude welling up inside me when I think about it. Though I get frustrated with the more chaotic aspects of my life, when I step back and look I cannot think of anywhere I rather be.
