Wednesday's Walk - Small Steps

This journal page was inspired by a Christmas card. I used watercolor pencils to paint this last year. It has been fun to look back and see what I wrote and critique what I would do differently if I were to paint this again. The intention would stay the same.

                                      Let your life be a painting.  Let your life be a poem.  Osho

I love these words.  The holiday season has begun.  How would a painting or a poem represent your feelings about the season?  Would it be filled with bright colors, people, and be a swirl of activity?  Would it be quiet, calm, and peaceful?  We are all different.  For some the holidays mean a flurry of activity.  It means spending time with family and friends that they have not seen all year.  It means crowds and presents and trees filled with lights  Every corner is decorated and every minute is filled with activity.  For others, the holidays are a time of quiet and reflection. Time is spent quietly alone or with family or friends.  Deorations are minimal but filled with meaning.  And there are those who are somewhat inbetween.  I hope that your holiday season will be the painting or poem or story that you create.  Let this special time of year represent all that is meaningful to you and your family.  Take a moment to think about the holiday season you would like to create and then begin with just one small step to make that dream come true.
