Deborah Lippmann, A friend of mine from high school has started her own line of nail care products after years of being a “manicurist to the stars”. And now, she’s becoming a star in her own right, recording her first CD. I am extrordinarily proud of her!
Of course, I also feel a bit of creative envy. I was taking voice lessons here recently for a bit, but, I just don’t feel the need to continue. I’m not sure exactly why. I suppose much of it is the effects of studying Tao, and realizing how little need I have for extrernal recognition any more. Or perhaps I’m just really lazy. I don’t think there is any real fear involved, although it’s possible.
And yet, there is that twinge of envy for someone doing something so cool. I love music and it is a huge part of my life. I just figured out years ago I didn’t want to make a career of it. But I listen to so much of it, just went to hear Peter White and Richard Elliott yesterday, in fact, at a concert in Temecula. I love jazz, and I love that Debbie has put together this very cool jazz CD. Perhaps it is simply another path I didn’t explore, and wonder what might have been.
Anyway, it’s a really wonderful CD, and the nail care products are pretty sweet too. Check ’em out at The Lippmann Collection. And Debbie – congrats for following you path. Beautiful job, girl.
