Well I had a wonderful day at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park - great art mixed with a good cardiovascular work out - and then a good lunch - what more could you wish for. Then this morning I found out that my submission for an ARPS had been rejected. Now I have been working on this on and off for three years and at one time it was a big part of my life. Now, however, it is not and I am surprised and I have to say relieved that my reaction is one of supreme indifference. I am not sure why this but I have a number of suspicions , all to do with the fact that I have moved on.
I no longer hanker for recognition by means of letters after my name. I am enjoying myself doing what I do and frankly if that isn't good enough for this award or that competition then so be it - life is too short to worry about such small matters. You move on. If this is the reason then I am really proud of my self as it would mean that I have got a lot more balance into my life. However, it could be over the next few days I become really angry, somehow I don't thing this is going to happen.
