Rose…

My name is Maya Rose. I’ve spent about 10 years trying to cultivate a
rich life, and it’s taken me a big chunk of that time to come to terms
with the fact that a rich life is not always a conventionally pretty life.

On fire…

Some days you feel like you are on fire! You had time for a run before
work, the dog is fed and happy, you come home and the dinner is
delicious, the conversation is sparkling, and your outfit has been
doing nothing but good things for you all day.

Also, on fire…

And some days you feel like your life is on fire. You’re
walking the dog and brushing your teeth at the same time, you’re late
for that conference call, dinner is literally in flames, and
apparently you sat on something during the day that has been stuck to
your skirt for an unknown length of time.

It’s okay…

A rich life is a work in progress. Always a balancing act; it is
essential to be able to adapt, integrate, and evolve. What is
perfection today is passé tomorrow, so let’s find the beauty in an
imperfect life. Let’s be willing to change right alongside our
changing lives, and always being open to trying new things – even when
they don’t turn out quite like the picture in our head. This is
inspiration, not aspiration.

Rose on Fire

My name is Maya Rose. This is more or less what the inside of my head
looks like. And I want to show it all.
Food, art, crafts, and adventure. Living in color, accidentally on purpose.
