Thank you for reading the post Bella and resonating with it. I think art is incredibly healing, and it’s what we are here to do – create. But we just have to be careful in case we stop getting that spark of joy and start using art and crafts as an escape. I love how honest you are and I agree that it’s scary, but beauty comes out of it. Sending love xxx

I am in the midst of working through my constant pain and have discovered that I use crafts as an escape / distraction in order to get away from my innermost feelings. It has been more than a month since I’ve made something “beautiful”. Just sitting with myself, allowing the pain to leave my body in the form of tears. Gruelling and extremely scary, but also incredibly healing. Your piece has given me the comfort to stay with my feelings and I will start to let them flow from within, to my pen and onto paper. Sending you loving kindness and once again, thank you.

Your writings helped me through pain, when I could not talk to anyone else, I talked to you. So thank you. Just wanted to get that out before I start reading this. Thanks April

Yes, we are always the answer we are searching for. Seeking for the answer outside of ourselves always covers over this simple truth. A blog on this topic will be coming soon. I’m so happy you resonated. Thank you for reading. Axx

I find myself sometimes taking my urge to ‘fix’ myself to yet another thing. When really, the time to sit with it is really the remedy required.
I love that you are writing here, I’m so tired of the socials and didn’t know I was yearning for this home. YOU. So so glad that your detour led you here. xx
