I am looking forward to the day when I write a meaningful post again
It may be a while coming however
As the conversations I have with me in my head these days dont quite ever make it out through my fingers
I am also looking forward to being inspired again one day
I have prepared a canvas
It is sitting there staring at me and has been for weeks
Everytime I go to do something with it, I stop, unable to formulate an idea that is floating somewhere beyond my reach for now
I would normally say to someone else, "just start", but I cant, not yet, not just for the sake of it
Hmmmm
I know I am in here somewhere
Im just not quite sure who "I" is right now
That same me yes, but wait there's more.....
For now its like I am just floating along, doing the days as they come, with no particular enthusiasm or meaning, just doing......
And that, in spite of how that may sound to you, is quite okay with me, weird yes, but okay too
I do feel that I am actually just where I am supposed to be and that the floating is necessary
I will know when its time to swim
and its not yet
I do not question why, that would just drive me insane
Its okay for now
And that is all really
So, I distract myself with silly things, just to keep me awake some days
I think in short bursts
I 'do' the stuff that needs to be 'done'
Its all an illusion you know
This life
The trick is to see through it and begin to grasp the importance of nothing
and just enjoy the 'whatever' as it comes
For now
Remember this??? I almost forgot.....

Ah know it well....the "blank canvas thing"....
It IS an excuse.
I was painting at 10.30 last night and caught myself saying to the man....just let me sit here AND RELAX and apint for half an hour"...did you hear that???
"just relax and paint"???!!!!!!!
Wow...what a change...
Yes I actually feel relaxed when I do it...my mind goes THERE and is NOT HERE...and it is a really really good place to go.
Just do it you silly bugger....
Set up a spot and keep it there.
I am just giving back to you your own advice that you gave to me and it worked too!!!!
Please send me you home address details so I can send you your calendar. Thanks.w.w.
*pokes out tongue* :0P
You & I are definitely on the same wavelength, but in my case, the blank canvas is life....
Floating is always preferable to drowning...
;0)
Hmmm - just do it 'arty farty'.
you can always paint over it if you dont like it
love the new page header image!! very cool
floating is actualkly being insulated by the universe. that painting reminds me fallopian tubes and reproduction type things- i love you work, real, 'walk where no man dares go ' sort of stuff- and listen to Elf, she knows her shit xxx
i am actually going to print this painting out and post it in my journal- it speaks to me- i need to work with it- ok ?
Okay....thats what its for...I need to remember that
I don't forget your work because it's the first thing I see everyday.xx
Hey Arty Farty Mary!
I would like you to to turn this work of yours into fabric, then have someone make me a beautiful item of clothing out of it, okay...... ;0)
