3 years later and...finally!

well, it's been about 3 years since I created this blog account. since then, i've written many posts which I kept unpublished and to myself. so much has happened in my life in the past 3 years, I don't even feel like the same person sometimes. I believe this is a good thing. The extraordinary amount of sadness that I have been dealt the past few years of my life is starting to give way to extreme bursts of creativity and to me, this is the best possible type of energy for healing. Creation. In the coming weeks, months, and possibly even years... I hope to use this blog as an uncensored and open form of communication for myself, if no one else but I truly hope this blog will inspire at least one person who reads it.


I pulled an all nighter for the first time since i started my "real person job" (about 6 months ago). definitely easy to do when you have rooms full of arts and craft supplies (and the internet). from the ages of about 16-26 I was lucky to fall asleep before 2 or 3am. I used to chalk this up to the night terrors I experienced as a kid...visions and shadows kept me awake for hours and usually ended with me sleeping in my parents room. now I know that it was (most likely) just my brain being all overactive and what not...now, I find that channeling restless energy into late night art sessions, guided meditations, or self reiki treatments really help to put my mind and body back in balance...and eventually into deep sleep.

it's raining. I hope you all have a wonderful sunday. hopefully I'll have time to post again tomorrow? perhaps some pictures of my :::in progress::: recycled shoe rack! exciting, i know. :D
