Journaling - What's Your Style?

Journaling in so many different ways

When I was little and all through my teens I used to write journals. And I enjoyed writing them at the time. Then one day I took them all and tore them up. I don't regret that. They served their purpose at that time.

Then along came the computer and the written journals  morphed into electronic documents which then morphed into online journals in the form of vision boards and private blogs. But writing takes time and when I started my public blogs,  my private blogs faded into oblivion.

And then I discovered Art Journals and they are so much fun. I try to journal weekly about something that catches my eye or my thoughts.

So here is this week's journal entry


Just do it - you might wonder why I used the scales as part of the journal. Just do it applies to both my children. One acts impulsively and just does it and the other analyses and procrastinates so much that often you have to say Just do it.  Balance is the key - think before you act but don't think too long.

And here is some art work I did some weeks ago - the Japanese Collection.


Frags this week

I am reading Wayne Dyer's "I Cam See Clearly Now"  It's a great book and there is much to learn from it.

Last weekend I had a leaky tap that flooded my kitchen bench and the dining room carpet was soaked. I had the plumber and carpet cleaner in to sort out the mess. The new tap looks shiny and the carpet looks very clean. Thankfully there was nothing more serious than that.

At present New Zealand is voting to change the flag or keep the old one. The new flag is on the left and the current flag is on the right. Let's see what the people will vote for.



The weather has been very erratic. We had 2 very cold days and I had to bring out my winter coats and now it's so hot, I have my fan on.

Time for some ice-cream.

Have a great week.

Ignite Your Soul

Light a candle - Ignite your soul

My friend's hubby's life journey sadly ended early this week. He is free of pain and suffering but my friend has to carry on having lost both her mother and husband 17 days apart.

But letting him go was the kindest and most loving thing she could've done. God never gives us a load we cannot carry and she is a strong and amazing woman. Please pray that she finds that strength, courage and comfort.

I painted this picture in my art journal from a story I wrote some months ago "For I Have Talked With God"

Sometimes the words you write just stick in your mind as these did ...

"And in the darkness someone lights a candle that ignites your soul again and life goes on"

His light went out on Earth but it still shines on the other side. Right now her life is in darkness, but I know his light will ignite her soul again.
