Compare and Contrast

Ive been talking with a very wise woman of late and she asked me : what if we stopped comparing ourselves to others, or the people our society thinks we should be. Stopped worrying that we arent doing it right, or we do not have the same skills as others and are less worthy or important. Who would we be ?
Ourselves. Without all the fear and self judgement, and low self esteem. So why is it that we always compare ourselves to others?

It is important to get myself out of the paradigms of society and back into my own heart. Because that is where my truth is. And with out it I could never be at peace with myself.

Silly Bee


I forgot how much easier life is when I just go with the flow. I find myself getting hung up on silly things like my lack of skill in art, or certain relationships. But not today i just tried making it the best day for myself ever, and kabloie. When you let go of judgment towards yourself,and just be who you are right now in this moment, and when you hangout with you friends and not worry why you are friends or what others might think but to go back to the core of it, and realize that you are friends because you enjoy each others company and you have fun and are silly together. So why the heck should you worry about someone  else's opinion about it.
Today in drawing i was able to find that quiet stillness that is so rare for me to find when nothing in the world matters except what shape this line is and where the highlight lies. The mind goes quiet. Which startles me every time it happens but it goes so deep its beautiful. Peaceful.
Today I released my judgment and by doing so gave myself permission to 
Just Be Me, and I loved it. 

You Should Try It <3

GoOd ByE aLiCe In WoNdErLaNd


Today was crazy beautiful. I woke up to the reassuring sound of my best friend. A girl i can brave the real world with, a world of apartment hunting,chai tea,grumpy afternoons,evening adventures,music,secrets,and movies.
And when we aren't doing that, we make art.
Just flow.
