Any given Sunday

Yes I feel like holding on to the day a bit longer. Sunday always felt like a day to take time for myself, to recharge the senses, relax, create or do the things that make me feel whole again. Always a little sadness for me when wrapping up the day knowing Monday starts all over again. So for now I will enjoy the day.

Take time for yourself, do what makes you happy!

Doodling my way through life

“That pesky ghost was playing with my emotions all night.

I will just smile and wish it away.”

Doodling is habit forming. When the pen hits the paper, my eyes glaze over, the mind is in a trance,  guided by the ink, wherever it takes me. Words, images start to appear sometimes on repeat and when its over I have something unique.

When we know

We change.

When we are woven in life’s moments.. Caught.. We get tangled, we wiggle

slowly we stretch… Grow.. and learn to break free

Piece together

Sometimes the process of doing can be more therapeutic than the completion of the product. As I tore the decorative paper in pieces and glued it randomly on the board, at that moment I realized we may be torn on the inside but it would be alright, we can be fixed, one imperfect piece at a time.
