A new direction
Posted On 02/23/2009 08:30:48 by Nia

Well thanks to the encouragement of 'suggestions' and the lovely reminders

of some people here (and several books,) I have launched a new facet

to my day. Each morning I continue my prayers and meditation - and then

open my written journal-Or- My new ART journal.... Not very fancy in the

physical realm- sketch pad- but I have already filled one!

  A long, long time ago- my Father suggested I write something every day-

My Mother used to play drawing games with me- most days- surrounding

books we were reading or ideas from her own imagination -so- I am now

trying to apply the same to colors and shapes- as words! " Draw, paint

create, a little something visual- every day-"

The only caution my Father gave me was not to " Judge " what I wrote-

So- same goes for the artistic !

What a great idea. Expressing our feeling, thoughts, etc helps us to heal and grow in our recovering lives. I agree with your father on judging your work...there is NO right or wrong way. 

GOD BLESS --Jennifer

Yep - it's even fun to just picture the picture - never putting paint to canvas. That saves my friends from getting sick - form laughing too hard...


Hugs,


Dennis
