Seldom have I known it before these most recent days, but I’ve started to accept that I’ve always been in the right place at the right time.
To learn what I needed to learn, that is.
All of the circumstances haven’t always been comfortable or desirable, but when I allow myself to access the centeredness that opens my heart to the knowledge that I will be shown the pathway, I find peace and a sense of deeper wisdom than is available otherwise.
Making artwork allows my mind to move into kinds of thinking that nothing else will. So I draw and paint and let the thoughts flow. The notebook beside me catches them. It all continues to emerge.
Slowing down is delightful.
More to come soon.
Peace. Love.

I always love to hear about people finding joy in something because they trusted themselves to go outside their wheelhouse.
It sounds like you are in wise mind. In DBT, there are three states of mind: emotion, reasonable, and wise mind. Wise mind is in between the two, balanced.
