Reading, painting and gardening

I my free time I enjoy being outside.  I love to see how the trees, plants and flowers change each day.  Gardening is my free therapy session at no cost.  When I paint, creativity flows like a river, no planning, just do it.  At the end of the day, you paint what you think and feel.  Paint gives me the feeling of something new and clean.   It just happen by itself while you are busy creating.  Reading is just fun.
