I totally get what you are feeling, that longing for something deeper and I truly believe that connecting with our creative selves is the remedy. xxNikki Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07061038678819861999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6627109429370960702.post-13989640351254123572013-06-05T08:47:32.320+10:002013-06-05T08:47:32.320+10:00I have that book sitting in my bookshelf, patientl...I have that book sitting in my bookshelf, patiently waiting to be read, hmmm.

I love what you say here: explore our artistry in everything we do from the way we dress to the way we cook. So true. Creativity and artistry isn't necessarily being able to draw a masterpiece, it's about expressing something deep inside. We're creative beings. And like you say, we breathe, we get dressed, we cook, we garden, we sing, we love and we nurture... we create. Writing, like you, is a huge part of my creative expression as is gardening, cooking, making my home, even finding a beautiful hand thrown planter for a house plant. Small things and big things. But just lately I long for something deeper. Hard to put into words, but it'll come. xVanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09205721394366642669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6627109429370960702.post-70882427432504138052013-06-03T19:03:28.965+10:002013-06-03T19:03:28.965+10:00That's what I'm talking about Michelle!

I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it - very meditative. I should do it more often.
