Day 8 - Making peace with being 'lost' for a while
Quotes
"Let the journey feel the way you want the destination to
feel."
"Getting lost is not a waste of time."
"Honour the space between 'no longer' and 'not yet'."
"Step into the fire of self-discovery. This fire will not
burn you. It will only burn what you are not." - Mooji
Intention
To craft a page about creating mental supports which allow oneself
to be OK with not knowing answers.
My process
I used watercolour paints and felt pens. I created a page filled
with coloured dots. To me this represents chaos, but looking at that pattern I
feel that there is a beauty in chaos, a lesson - that chaos results when an
existing pattern that has served its purpose, starts rearranging itself into
something more relevant. If that is the case, it is OK to make one's peace with
waiting out the chaos.
Journaling Prompt:
How do I support myself through periods of feeling 'lost'?
Daily Wrap Up:
After
completing your artwork and journal entry, consider the following questions:
- Has my work
followed the suggested theme?
- - Is a particular motif, story or message persistently showing through in my work? What does this suggest to me?
- If not, is
there a pattern, underlying suggestion, message or idea which it has
raised.
- Is
this pattern related to my previous journal entries?
- Would I
like to follow it further? If so, how can I do that in a way which empowers me?
- How do I
feel about the work I have done? Why?
- - Do I feel any resistance to the process? Why?
In your
journal, write up a few comments answering these questions, or else highlight
the sections of your written work that seem to suggest a pattern or feature you
would like to work on.
