My grandmother once gave me a tip:
In difficult times, you move forward in small steps.
Do what you have to do, but little by little.
Don’t think about the future, or what may happen tomorrow.
Wash the dishes.
Remove the dust.
Write a letter.
Make a soup.
You see?
You are advancing step by step.
Take a step and stop.
Rest a little.
Praise yourself.
Take another step.
Then another.
You won’t notice, but your steps will grow more and more.
And the time will come when you can think about the future without crying.

Taking small baby steps is exactly what I’ve been trying to do since the pandemic started. Back in the beginning I remember making soup in my instant pot, changing the sheets on my bed, and taking the dog for a walk felt like huge achievements. I’d pick just one small thing to do each day, and if I got it done, I was happy.

Moving forward each day has always been something I strive to do, long before the pandemic. I have to make something happen every single day, no matter how small or big.

This 100 oil paintings challenge is keeping me moving forward, which I love. I’m already planning the next challenge after this one..hm..will it be gouache or watercolors? Haven’t decided yet.
