Ahoy there!

So I can't believe it is 3 months since my last post, I have been sitting on the roof terrace above and ducked out of the social media hub for a while, it has never really felt my scene to tell the truth but I do love engaging with other humans. So here I am .......

As a creative being, as we all are, but for me creativity has always been at the forefront of my life, my mum always used to say 'have you been creative recently? you need to be creative, it's not good to procrastinate.' she was right and I have heeded her words. Although I am full of so many ideas that my focus can get a bit lost and I have so many projects, completing them and getting to the finishing line doesn't always come easy....

But I also understand, that actually there is no finishing line and actually it is a continual journey. We seem to berate ourselves unless we have finished, sold or produced a final product and been paid and praised for it.

I choose to not go down this route that schooling seems to install into us of right and wrong, success and failure, good and bad. Where we are broken down if we don't tow the line of being a good little worker. It was a long time ago when I was at school and I see now from my daughters schooling that I had it far easier in many ways, but I guess that is all relative and I could ramble on about that too.

I think what I wanted to say, not that I regularly think before I speak, is that it is important to just do it,whatever it is for you, so just write, draw, crochet, cook, sing, dance, paint, garden, read.... just do whatever brings you joy and I guess I also want to say that those moments in between when we aren't doing are also incredibly important too.

Life is a continual journey of moments for us to engage in, however we choose, we are in the driving seat at all times, even though with our flitting limited consciousness we don't always feel that way. Yet something is changing..... we both know it, everyone can feel it, and whether you are fearful or excited or both we cannot stop it, the flow of life is happening all around us and it is far more enjoyable when we are kind to ourselves - by this I mean talking gently to yourself like you're a sensitive shy child. It is so important to leave behind what doesn't serve us, so we can soften into ourselves. We have so many choices in this amazing world and so many positive endeavours to heal, entertain, relax and engage us.

I invite you with this post of mine to do something that you feel drawn to, maybe something that you remember from childhood, it can be as small or big as you like, treat yourself to engaging with yourself on this journey called life... until next time xx
