Soul Paint

(click to enlarge)

Is it Wednesday already?

You know what that means?

It's Wishcasting Wednesday hosted by our charming, innovative, inspiring
Wishtress Jamie Ridler!

Jamie asks:
"What is your highest self wishing for?
What is rumbling in your soul?
"

Today I thought I would combine two blog endeavors, so I let the questions stew while I was putting together the above composition for June Saville's Painting with No Mess or Expense project!

I didn't use MS Paint because it would not let me work with gradients. I kind of cheated and used PS; however, I only used shapes to put it together. I let my soul speak in primitive but fun ways!

And this is what it had to say:

I wish for my life to be enveloped by sunshine, happy nature, and gentle breezes.
I wish to take the time to listen to the birds in the trees,
and let my footsteps wander where they want to go.

I wish to hold his hand and smile while we walk aimlessly with purpose through a life filled with inspiration, creativity and abundance.

I am typing this while feeling the aftereffects of gardening. My back is very sore today. So much so that I have taken the day off. But I won't let a little pain get me down. I soar in my soul's rumblings of joy.

Joy.

JOY!

Thank you so much to each and every one of you for coming to my little blog and leaving your words of wisdom, encouragement, support and friendship. Whether you comment or not, I feel your lovely energy, and it fills me with happiness. Blessed be! :)

rebecca said...

I love your wishes, perfect. And, I can feel your pain regarding gardening. I did mine too awhile back and couldn't move the following day but boy was it worth it! And whenever I feel pain I feel grateful that at least I can do certain things because there are many that cannot.

((hugs))
