It Just Is is a painting of full stops — happy full stops at that. It marks a moment in my life when I recognised that all was in balance and no further striving was needed. I can vividly recall with whom and where the conversation took place. Invited to consider other perspectives, my certain response was, “It just is, full stop.” The many brightly coloured full stops speak of the joy that comes with acceptance and gratefulness for all that life brings. All I need do is pause, breathe, and drink in the goodness.

When was the last time you allowed life to simply be?
