The Awakening

It has been a long winter.  I feel as though I have hibernated and put myself into a deep slumber.
I am beginning to wake up with each little change in the weather.  Yet I wonder if being awake is really what I want?
Callused is how I feel.  So separate from my true being. Stuck in the mud.  Having a traditionalist upbringing that questions my free artistic spirit.  Which one do I follow?  Am I allowed to do both? Wouldn't adhering to both be a contradiction?  Are we all truly free to be who we are?
How do we express within the confines of societal expectations?
Art is the only answer !!!!

    So true - follow your inner artist and you'll find a wonderful way forward.
    I've been surprised, delighted and inspired by the many and varied art-loving bloggers I've encountered since I began my own blogging journey and I wish for you the same.

    xx Felicity

The End and The Beginning

 Ok Last post was on 1/10/2023. Interesting how I don't really use this often.  I was looking for my writing journal, to express and write out the past few days events.   I couldn't find it, but didn't look too hard as it is 6 am and I am enjoying the quiet of the morning. I tried to do  the documenting  of the past few days in my Self Authoring Journal but that was more focused on other things and not my need of documenting the past few days events.  The Self Authoring journal was a Christmas gift.  I started it this past week.  It has various sections asking a person to reflect on themselves in regards to their past ,present & future.  I wrote about a past event.  An event that I experienced early in my life.  A violating experience of a house robbery.   Then a few days later as my sister was checking my mom's mail, she came across my parents house ransacked and broken into.   I find that to be a very ...

Wonder if......

Wonder if I would feel much better if I could sleep at night. Why does sleep have to evade me? I am exhausted and burnt out right now!!!! You would think that by being so tired one would doze off into dreamland once the head hits the pillow, but no that is not the case. I may fall asleep but then awaken with thoughts of everything that is going on in my life at once. I try to push it all out of my head but it keeps circling around. I chant to myself in my head sleep, sleep , sleep, sleep, sleep as each thought tries to shove the sleep sleep out of the way. I do not want to try meds, I have tried relaxation, yoga, warm milk, warm bath, teas but when I can't sleep I just can't sleep. I would love to dream!!!!

heartbroken

What happens now? As i wonder just how, I have fallen in love with you? For it's nothing you do , just you being you! Standing between two. My heart belonging to you. The other i am bound, with no love to be found. My mind says let go, my heart kicks and screams no!!! Nothing but screams holding onto a dream. A dream of a man, accepting my love but he no longer can. How to live with so much to give? To hold it within, Would it be a sin?
