Days 24 and 25 - Trusting what's round the corner...

I'm having a mega blog session - making the most of the stable (for now!) internet connection...

I'm trying to catch up with The Lotus and the Lily posts, the desk-hopping of WOYWW and the new art e-course I'm doing (those posts are all under the new Unearth  page tab at the top of the blog)...

The main thing I wanted to share from my daily readings this week has crystallized in the art play-making I had this morning...

Making random marks on the page, messing around with the messy charcoal and smudging everything with my fingers (I so wish I had two usable hands just to be able to take a photo of my left hand after I'd finished making this - it was BLACK!!)


Truly, I had no intention or plan to draw this - or anything else for that matter - it was just a mark making exercise - I should have taken a photo before the tunnel image emerged...
But given what I'd been reading in The Lotus and the Lily (pp. 143--52), I really shouldn't have been surprised! 

It's all about trusting the unknown, the unseen... trusting that Life, the Universe are essentially supportive, creative, kind...

Trusting that even though I woke up feeling terrible - stiff, tired, my right arm throbbing (I get botox injections on Monday to relax the muscles, but this morning the ultra-tight muscles were screaming...) - I would gently push myself to catch up on the missed course lessons... Just to take my mind off my arm... just to trust that the day would get better...
