Journey into Collage – Week 32

And yet another assignment for Your Living Canvas. This week was about vision. I am still sort of struggling with mine for several reasons. But the one thing that came up with me is that my vision for my life is to be calmer, slower, more still and aware and regularly practicing gratitude and joy. So whatever my vision ends up being, it will involve these themes.

The title says: calm (and slow, still, awareness, peace, gratitude, joy.)

Journey into Collage – Week 30

This is the second assignment for Your Living Canvas. This one is about balance and it has six F’s: faith, finance, fitness, family, friends, and fun. The idea is to write out all the ways in which you want to change your life so you can balance all of these well. I wrote my list and then broke it down to these six sections. In each of them I wrote goals and specific actions I want to take. The overall theme was that I want to reconnect to all of these areas of my life hence the title.

The quote says: It is time to connect again.

Journey into Collage – Week 29

This is my first assignment for Your Living Canvas class. The first week was about your story and as I wrote mine, one of the things that came up for me was that I have a lot of instances in my life where I made big leaps of faith or did things others would consider brave. This was a big deal to me, especially now cause I am not feeling so brave at the moment. So I decided to make this page as a reminder to myself. I wrote some of the things on top of the big butterflies and then more around the smaller ones.

The quote says: I am brave.
