In all the craziness, I am always striving to find the balance within my own life, let alone this conflicting world we live in! Sometimes all it takes is a peek down the "Bunny Fluffle" hole, (sounds kind of Alice in Wonderlandish, but I'll take it!) to take me away from all the negatives and to focus on all the positives in my world.
So how do I get past all the noise to get to that place of inspiration? Right out of the gate every morning, my first thoughts are of finding something I am grateful for, big or small and how to pay it forward, so to speak, with love and humor and craziness and beauty.
At any given moment, a zillion billion ideas race through my head, and catching them is essential or they are lost as quickly as they appeared. Sometimes, this can be a minute or sometimes, time passes by at light speed and before I know it, the day is half over. But again, that's ok, cause some really great inspirations come from those zillion billion moments.
Once those inspirations have been acknowledged, organization and percolation, are my next two very favorite parts of the process! Half the time, they don't always turn out the way I picture them but often, they turn into something special, unexpected and amazing!!! The hardest part is just learning to get into the zone and letting it flow, which requires patience, focus and a very non-judgmental thinking process.
So while the world outside is churning around, I am inside everyday balancing me, with thoughts of bunnies and birds and patterns and how many ways to make these crazy times a better place to, Just Be! Think about what is your escape route to balancing a better day? Dream of the world where you want to live, and who lives there with you. Do you have a favorite color, maybe that could be the sky, or the grass? Do you have a favorite hat, or pattern or sayings that could be incorporated into thoughts of your world or art? Whatever it may be, its your world, your art and your stage to set. When times get rough, visit that place and allow it to change how you view whats tripping you up!
With a new year approaching, it is a good time to set some intentions and say goodbye to those thoughts and things that aren't working for you. Just remember to be safe with your hearts, your minds and your souls! Find that Bunny Fluffle Hole to stick your head in and just percolate about the positives! It will make everything else look so much better when you come out!
