• my ambivalence about this start, and about posting it
• the background music of a foghorn
• where I carry sadness and loss in my body
• the warmth of sunlight on my face, my shoulders
• that I can say So it is, yes, and thank you to runaway thoughts

Lots of emotion in these. Nagging thought in the middle. He has a lot on his mind.
Sheila, thanks for your reflections—they fascinate me. love that you feel lots of emotion in these, and that you perceive nagging-thoughts-a-lot-on-his-mind in the middle.
"Where I carry sadness and loss in my body"....whoa. I find myself nodding at your noticing list. Noticing...observing...I like this.
Jen, good bang for my buck = blog post awareness practice : )
Thanks again for taking notice.
Noticing a sad feeling about your post. Although I see some very positive sections the black seems quite powerful. Love the dancing orange square like shapes, may they dance away the sadness!
Hey, Carol! Thanks for your kind thoughts and thoughtful feedback.
I understand very much your reservations about posting the things you painted, since it can feel vulnerable or other things, but let me reassure you that by painting and by showing your work, you can pave the way for others (a.k.a. me) who are hesitating and seeking direction!
Simone, your recent posts (a week ago?) brought such delight, and encouragement, and learning that I was sparked to do a bit of posting myself. I'm grateful for the nourishment going in both directions!
