Lot goes on in life and if you are looking for material to worry about, well yes mom, there always is something to work with.
It can crowd out your mind. You know what I am talking about. The thoughts you have in the middle of the night, the issues that don't have tidy solutions, the things you are not crazy about, can't do anything about, but know you are going to just have to learn to live with. Some things don't happen for a reason, that's the truth, some things just happen.
But when I go down to my sewing room it all just goes away. Knitting, you do when you have to think, but sewing takes you to a place where your mind lets go of everything but your project. When sewing takes over it takes you away.
It is such a relief. You are relieved.
I think sewing just rests my soul.
You feel that?

Yep, I'm feelin' it. :)
I'm the 7th of 8 kids - totally understand 'it's always something' ! LOL
I totally understand that feeling. I'm constantly seeking it like a junkie looking for his next fix. That feeling calms me, soothes out the hurts, allows the best me to step forward and centers me in the way that NOTHING else does!
Absolutely!
I have a quote on my sewing room wall that says "sewing mends the soul"...and its 100% completely true! :)
Playing music's like that too: when you have to focus on rhythm, pitch, the notes in front of your eyes, and what the people around you are playing, there's simply no room for worries!
