Joy and wisdom

 

​

While I was doing 'serious things' for the last five years I was also doing interesting 'not so serious' side project - Calabash (Bottle gourds, Tikve) with farmers in small villages in Bosnia and Herzegovina. People asked me: 

- 'Why are you doing it, Mirela? What for?'

And many more questions followed and many more curious facial expression followed. 

People couldn't figure out why I spend so much time on this project. 

I didn't really know either. I just enjoyed every aspect of this project...

this is the whole wisdom!

as famous quote says
"Life happens when you are busy making other plans'"

It is truth. 

I was caught in the mind game, selecting things what might bring serious results in my personal life or professional life as an artist.

And the whole time a big potential of Calabash project was in front of my eyes. 

I have been working on the project a lot but I haven't consider this as 'important project'!

Please connect me with people who are doing something similar.
