Follow the Breadcrumbs

When I was a little girl, probably about 4 or 5, I remember visiting a family friend’s house. They lived in a townhome, and I went out to play with the other kids. We had wandered off playing in the leaves. It was a crisp fall in Gross Pointe, Michigan. It was my first time visiting this neighborhood, and when I wanted to go back, I forgot which house was theirs! I was drawn to one house, and I ended up knocking on the wrong front door. I was greeting by an elderly couple who invited me in. This was the 70’s when wandering around as a child was kind of acceptable. This couple gave me tea. Don’t worry, I wasn’t roofied. We talked, laughed, and who knows how much time had passed when I heard a knock on the front door. It was my parents and their friends! I still remember my mom’s face when she saw me. We walked next door to my parent’s friend’s house, oops! I was off by one house but I had such a great adventure.

I recently dropped off a birthday package at UPS and when I left, something caught my eye. A coffee shop I’d never seen before. I loved the galaxy, stars decor. I walked in and it just had a good vibe. Have you ever just walked into a space and felt at home? I ordered a grenade latte and noticed there were paintings on the wall. I asked the barista if they ever rotate artists. No one had ever asked that before! I have an appointment to talk with the owner about possibly getting my work on the walls. I walked out feeling good at the possibility of showing my work in a new space.

This is what I call following the breadcrumbs. If you get an inkling to explore a new place, do it. See where it takes you. You never know! Do you know what I’m talking about? Have you ever had a similar experience? What happened? Never experienced that before? I challenge you to go somewhere with no agenda and see what happens. Follow the breadcrumbs the next time you’re out and about.
