I have realised that I have left my blog unattended for too long. Having battled with the end of my studies and start of my employment have pre-occupied my mind for too long. I am again trying to discover my creative side.
Recently I have started painting and though I initially wanted to draw picture of the sea with the wild life on the sea floor, in the end it turned out to be the sea of people. ;o) One lesson I have realised for my own creativity is not to have too restricted or ideas of what I want to do but allow myself to discover what is hidden on the canvas as I start adding the layers. I guess that it is the same in life and us having preconceived ideas about what and who we face. Being open and flexible and allowing ourselves to start the journey of adventure and discovery is likely to bear good fruit.

Sea of people (not finished yet)

I often feel that as I am getting older that I keep trying to re-discover my inner child or youth and rebel against the stereotype and mundane things, yet I keep falling into seeking comfort and safety of knowing what is to follow. I guess having been fairly good girl when growing up has left me thinking that I have not got some of the things out of my system but at the same time I am too lazy and anxious to step out.....
I admire those who can be content and are not driven by emotions back and forth as often as I do. But what does this really mean? Do I want to be part of the crowd or go against the flow? Perhaps I want both in different aspects of life or different days. ;o)
