Leap and the net will appear.

It’s a leap of faith. An understanding that while you know this is the way you want to go, and you don’t know exactly how it will happen, that things will come together to catch you. The universe will provide.

Ryan and I were at Panera Bread last night for dinner and I just happen to walk by a bulletin board promoting the first Oak Groove festival for May 5, 2013. And calling for artists.

That led to a conversation with Ryan. Do I have enough work to hang? Could I do a festival like this? Should I start this year or wait? I just looked at a few of the upcoming spring festivals, and most I either missed the deadline or booth space is super expensive. So I didn’t think it was going to work.

Then I saw the call for artists. It’s a local festival for my neighborhood, which is very exciting for me.

I made a list of what I need to do to be ready for something like this. I’ve planned a wedding, planning this is nothing. A month? No big.

I sent an email to the main organizer just now to ask if there was still space available for artists. I printed out the applications and instructions.

I’m nervous because it asks the artists to provide their own tents, chairs, tables, generators. Generators?!

As soon as I began to fill out the paperwork, I realized that I was leaping without knowledge of how it was going to work out. Leap of faith. Knowing that festivals is what I want to do, and knowing that it will all work out.

I’m super excited.
