For the first time...

For the first time...

... I saw and was intrigued
... I didn't want to know, just felt nice
... I felt like it was meant to be
... I thought there was a random connect
... I enjoyed the little childish flirting
... in a long time... I enjoyed the company

Then...

... over time I got comfortable
... started to see things fit
... really liked what I saw
... realized that I was done for
... felt like a complete fool
... enjoyed the feeling

Now...

... I don't know what tomorrow has in store
... I only live in the moment and hope for the best
... I wish things would go how I see them
... I kind of live by hope and faith and hope it sees me through.

Just like riding a bike... :)

Drawing and painting is something that once you learn it... You can't seem to forget...
Its like riding a bike. You think you might have forgotten, but once you get down to it... it all just comes rushing back to you.
I keep scribbling and painting off and on, but when I look back at some of the work I've done over the years, I really wonder how I did it and if I'd be able to do it over again... Rest assured when you start you know you can do it and so much more... As long as you're not afraid of it, or messing it up, you can manage to create wonders...

Once you're halfway there and you know things are coming out the way you want them to, there is a smile on your face and half the battle is already won! :)
When you finish it, you need to feel like you've finished it... and you know when its done. It gives you a happiness that only you know of. Over and above that if you have people admiring your work, its like the icing on the cake. There is no better feeling than knowing your work is being appreciated for your vision on paper. Writing and painting/sketching needs to reach out in a certain manner. If that happens, you've been successful.

This is random, but since I'm managing to make time for doing this again, and its bringing me joy, I'd like to share! :)

Forced Isolation...

Its a funny thing, most people think I'm the kind of person who always has people around me... Which in most cases I do, but when I manage times away and alone, for work or myself... It is so hard for people to understand why or how.

I truly believe that one needs time with themselves to see their lives from a different point of view, see where they stand, what changes they'd like to make... etc etc

My times away have always given me the time and space to disconnect, with most of the world really... Introspection, thoughts on myself, my life, my surroundings... Meditation... Liberation...

Feeling and emoting the difference! :) love and joy to all!
