Courage – Juicy Heart

Courage…

Courage to ask…

Courage under the barrage of information …

Courage under fire …

Courage … feeling the fear and doing it anyway …

I feel inspired to be courageous as I have just been in the presence of courage. The men who I was with on the weekend were very courageous and that informs me and inspires me… My dear friend William is full of courage and that inspires me… My husband fills me with courage as I see him move forward… I am more able to gather courage to me as I feel the courage around me. 

I like how I feel when I am wrapped in the warmth of courage and determination. I like how I feel when I am aware of the clarity I can maintain when I am filled with a sense of courage. I feel like I can be an inspiration when I can be aware and present to my courage and the source of that flow of information and awareness.

Today I will move forward filled with courage and inspiration.

Beneath the surface there is something else? or beneath the surface is more of what is visible on the outside?

I wonder as I look at this painting … ?

There is such a visage on the exterior what is on the inside… ?

What was in Caravaggio’s spirit as he created this…?

How does my interior match my exterior? or do they?

What I see everyday…

I enjoy this business card so much. I don’t really know why I enjoy it, I have never really thought about it. But there it is, I look up . I enjoy the raw quality of this broken masculine image looking back at me.

I like that phrase … broken masculine image… ♥

Check the work of this local Toronto painter at Stev’nn Hall

This is also about the joy I have at having a camera in my hand all the time. I like where this photographic journal is going and the expression that it is generating. I love the ease of use.

Today is the day… Eruption

The land has been building…

The outer layers have been stretching…

The motion has been stirring…

The heavy peaks have been massing…

The heat has been rising…

The eruption has been pressurizing…

Today is the day…

Bursting forth in a new and vibrant energy!

HA! Breath – Life HA!

What will happen after the eruption? No one knows… I imagine there will be some silence and then there will be another build of activity. Or there could on the other side be some tumultuous event… It is all the same really… motion into a new place.

Bursting forward... Hilo May 2012

Obsessive – Juicy Heart

Sometime I can become obsessed with a project…

Today when I mentioned this to my husband… I said something like … “I feel bad because I have become obsessed with this latest project” He in turn surprised me and replied. That my obsessions were some of my best attributes and sometimes the result of the obsessive work was some of my most brilliant creation.

I was surprised. I had always thought that those projects that could consume my entire energy were not my best moments… Sometimes I just have no clue of what those around me are truly thinking. I am glad my husband shared his experience. I am glad because I had a little insight into myself that I often do not see.

LOVE – PEACE – JOY
