100 Days of Sacred Art - Entry #38
(Digital Photo: The Journey to Letting Go)
I read “She Let Go” (from yesterday’s post) for the first time at a retreat in 2007. It was the next to last night and our very wise and wonderful retreat coach gave each of us a poem or quote to read aloud over dinner. [...]

Sacred Sunday Recuperation
Posted in Sacred Sunday on September 29, 2008 | 3 Comments »
It doesn’t seem like I accomplished much this Sunday, so not sure why it felt so busy, but it did. The only art I got done was a mail art project, which I’m reluctant to show because the recipient reads my blog and I want it to be a surprise – so, no art project [...]

100 Days of Sacred Art - Entry #37
(Making My Art Journal My Own)
“I embrace emerging experience, I participate in discovery. I am not a butterfly collector. I want the experience of the butterfly.” ~ William Stafford
The past several weeks, I’ve begun to notice subtle changes in my life… changes that I believe are being triggered by [...]

100 Days of Sacred Art - Entry #36
(Art Journal Page and Poem)
This page and poem were originally inspired by the promise of a fall garden, but then I started reflecting on the place where my heart lives right now and it sort of went another direction…
There is joy to be had
in this last shout of green
before [...]
Garden Deconstruction
Posted in Reinventing on September 25, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I have a confession to make… I have a very brown thumb – Hubby too. Our best intentions with our gardens and yard just never seem to be enough. Every spring we buy new plants and spend days making it beautiful; and by June everything’s pretty much brown. The plants we do have are huge [...]

100 Days of Sacred Art - Entry #35
(Recipe: Possibility Stew)
I cleaned out the cupboards for dinner tonight! Actually, I had one dish planned, but decided it was too much trouble and created something new – based partly on what I had available, partly on a recipe I saw in a magazine, and partly on the ability [...]

100 Days of Sacred Art - Entry #34
(Art Journal Page: Courage)
“Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, I will try again tomorrow.” ~Author Unknown
Some days I feel like I can leap small buildings in a couple of heartfelt bounds and other days I can’t get my [...]

100 Days of Sacred Art - Entry #33
(Art Journal Page: Taming the Beast)
Sitting outside at SB’s this afternoon, I heard a driver shouting obscenities at another driver who was evidently taking far too long to get his ‘choo-choo’ in gear and go. I thought to myself, “Dude, chill out” then “oh, right, easy for me to [...]

100 Days of Sacred Art - Entry #32
(Art Journal Page: Honoring My Sheroes)
As I plug away at Life is a Verb, I’m finding myself dog-earing more pages than not! It’s just full of jewels like this one… “I don’t see the truth in that” – Digh suggests this as a response to an off-color joke, but [...]
Battling My Illusions

100 Days of Sacred Art - Entry #31
(Art Journal Page: With Intention)
I think we women tend to create lots of illusion in our lives – we color our hair to hide the gray or battle endlessly to lose that last 10 pounds. These things support the illusion that we’re not quite desirable enough in our natural state.
