It’s been a low-intensity day. (I’m still dealing with sinus issues, and self-care mode is very much activated.) I’ve been catching up on listening to some online recordings and watching some online videos. There’s so much good stuff. But sometimes I feel overwhelmed because I simply can’t keep up with all of it.
I have to choose and prioritize. I have to let some things go, and be okay with the releasing.
It’s interesting for me to realize how so many of the audios and videos talk about similar themes. There’s a lot of inter-connectedness and overlapping, and it’s fascinating to see synchronicity at work this way.
(because I feel like I’m hearing these things, from so many different people and places, for a reason)
So I’m listening.
Listening for the messages, for what I’m meant to learn from all of this.
It feels important.
I’ve also been painting today.
And again, I listen.
I stand there and I listen to some inner voice (or maybe it’s an outer voice which feels internal) tell me what color to use and where to put it and what to do with it.
Sometimes when I paint, emotions come to the surface, moving through me, to be released.
Today I just felt calm.
Peaceful.
And painting – and the sense of inner peace – definitely joyful, both of them.
Sometimes it feels really good to simply feel calm and peace.
The inner peace and calm – the inner quiet – make it easier for me to listen.
