“I was always looking outside myself for strength and confidence, but it comes from within. It is there all the time.”
– Anna Freud
About Anna Freud
Austrian psychoanalyst Anna Freud was a pioneer in the field of child psychiatry; she also worked closely with her father, Sigmund Freud, in developing his theories. She was born in Vienna in 1895 and fled to London with her parents in 1938, escaping the Nazi regime. When her father became sick with cancer, she took over his studies, becoming his intellectual heir. She founded the Hampstead Clinic to work with children. She died in 1982.

We finally had a break in the weather so I got outside and worked on adding some color to the hill outside my office window. The weather has had me a bit down in the dumps so I am hopping to get back to painting or welding next week.

Today I planted the vinca, lavender and a red maple tree. We are hoping to install some rock steps to the left of where I am standing that will go up between the two tree trunks.
