All the people gather
Fly to carry each his burden
We are young despite the years we are concern
We are hope despite the times
All of the sudden, these days
Happy throngs, take this joy wherever, wherever….
I wish to meet each one of you And you, me, you, if I can and I can
We have many things in common, [...]

Nick Drake always seemed to get the words/sounds right for these feelings. This video was, ironically, a tribute to Nick Drake that Heath Ledger put together.
When does the past stop having a hold over us? When do we get to put the monsters to rest? I have two; one is dead, and the other [...]

The Artist’s Way Chapter Eight wrap up, now in Xiane-o-Vision!
September 15th, 2008 · 5 Comments
Action. This is a SERIOUS issue for me currently, as one of the hallmarks of my depression is an inability to take action on most things without extreme effort and discomfort. You can imagine how difficult this chapter has been for me, then! In fact, this is why I had to stop and take a [...]

lyrics from Corpus Delicti [twilight]
It’s one of those nights again. The urge comes over me, pulls from inside the muscles and bones and nerves of me, begging me to smash myself into something just so I can feel anything other than this, an ache that resonates and pulses and compels me to do anything to [...]

tonight’s lyrics from All About Eve [scarlet]
I look at myself, through this close lens, this tight vision of who I am and who I was and who I might be in the days to come… this is the hardest work I’ve ever done, you know - the work of breaking down the girl and rebuilding [...]

lyrics from Freur [doot-doot]
What motivates you?
I’m asking you, and I’m asking me. As for me, I don’t really know the answer to that right now, and it is a troublesome thing. I am not asking for you to answer *for* me - too much of that has gone on in my life. But I can [...]

My night is colored headache grey - Daysleeper

Lyrics today from REM [daysleeper]
Trying to get one’s life back in order can be tough, I swear. Up and down, ’round and ’round, but the work’s worth it, because I’m worth it, dammit.
One thing that’s helping is that the Artist’s Way Creative Cluster has decided to play a little catch-up with our Work, since big [...]

Words can set you free…

… but I have a hard time believing that words can change your brain chemistry. I’m watching Larry King and there’s a guy on there - Fred Alan Wolf, Ph.D. - claiming that I can get out of depression just by asking myself “Who is depressed?” over and over.
Look, I definitely believe in the power [...]

An inspirational quote for the day.
July 22nd, 2008 · 1 Comment
I’ve had a few people wonder where I found the name for our Artist’s Way creative cluster, “i plant the seeds.” It was actually from a quote from the writer of our guide, Julia Cameron - and worth sharing here:
“When I listen to love, I am listening to my true nature. When I express love, [...]

… I feel like a ghost.
Sick all day, on and off nausea. Tired, listless. Feeling low because I missed a craft show meeting, but I hardly ever miss anything, why am I beating myself up when I already feel bad?
Yep, that’s me, asking the penetrating questions.
