Talking about the elephant in the room! My poem for this week past is up live on my site 👉🏽 link in bio. #itsaboutthetruth #hinthint 🐘 the amazing elephant art is by @lukasvojir 💝
Knowledge isn’t enough to create change. You must look at your devastation in the eyes, look at the devastation that you created from your attachments and know it. Know it and feel it and see it all. Tell yourself the truth. Only then, can you truly be unattached & free. It is far more devastating to live every day of your life under the weight of attachment and never know it. This daily event, it is the most devastating of all. Where you yourself, the absolute essence of who you are have become the personification of suffering. The real tragedy is not death. It is living a caged life. This caged life, this is absolutely not ok. When will be the time?, what will be the event? The one that finally creates a true alliance between your devastation, desire & focus, when you can say and mean “This is absolutely not ok” & you let yourself to choose freedom? #art 🙏🏼 @kasia_derwinska
Clarissa Pinkola Estés said that there are 4 basic food groups that feed the creative life: Time, belonging, passion & sovereignty. I think we all know this, like it’s an intuition we all have, that in order to create fully these basics must be tended to. This weeks poem (now up via the link in my bio 📌) is about that which we already know. #intution #poetry #creative
"They are this horrible thing where you are distorted. The chin is too big, the head is too small. No, this is electronic masturbation." - Karl on Selfies 🤭 This incredible man and his creativity will be long missed. 😢 #karllagerfeld @chanelofficial 🖤
I love this painting by Dali, he used to talk about how proof of 'God' existed in our DNA. That godliness was in the strands of DNA and how proof of this god in life was in the lived experience. I love how he never explained this overtly in his art but instead would warp proof of life (like shadow). A game to get us to pay attention to it maybe? This past week's poem (which i forgot to post about on here last week) was about the kind of desire that feels embedded in our DNA. The life giving kind. Link for the poem 📌 in my bio Landscape with Butterflies, 1956 by Salvador Dali #dali #art #poetry
“My experience is what I agree to attend to. Only those items which I notice shape my mind.” - William James Artwork by @eron_artist 🙏🏼
