Jolt!
On my nightstand:
Feelings are bodily reactions
that are the healthy built-in technologies
for dealing with life’s jolts,
the healthy devices nature has given us
so we can be stirred to resolving problems,
creating new solutions, and
inventing helpful alternatives.
David Richo, The Five Things We Cannot Change
On my easel:
Let’s hear it for feelings that stir us to evolve.
From this work in progress
to this resolution/creation/invention.

Sheila, you’ve provided wind in the sails of my art exploration ever since your first comment in 2015 all the way through to today

Jolts: you know of what I speak, methinks! LOVED the zing of this progression of creating, and thanks for tipping me off to Richo’s book, The Five Things We Cannot Change which has informed my life navigation this week : )
