PAIN PAINT PROJECT
This project, did I start last year, due to my chronicle Lyme disease. The pain was horrible and I started to drift into a lighter depression. For years struggling with pain, with different diagnoses--that I didn't accept--
Later, I found a long good treatment. However, the pain came and went, due to stress in life and wrong food (and wrong people). Instead of eating painkiller or using morphine pad I started to paint. I had never before held in a brush, not even being close to a canvas....but it helped me. When starting to paint my mind went into a kind of meditation. And I love it! Its amazing what can come out from you without you knowing whats hiding inside of you. An interesting fabulous journey. And my wonderful children, are also starting to have fun with the brushes.
Jag startade detta projekt forra aret pga min kroniska Borrelia sjukdom. Smartan har varit fruktansvard (kommer och gar) och jag borjade dala in i en latt depression. I flera ar har jag fightats med dena sjukdom men under aren har jag fatt olika diagnoser--som jag inte har accepterat. Men till slut hittade jag en behandling som har gjort livet lattare. Men, smartan kommer och gar pa grund av stress eller fel mat. Istallet for att ata smartstillande eller anvanda morphin plaster borjade jag att mala! Jag har aldrig tidigare hallt i en pensel och aldrig varit nara en malarduk.....men det hjalper!
Nar jag borjar mala ar det som jag gar in i ett meditativt tillstand. Jag alskar det!
Det ar otroligt vad som kommer ur dig utan att du vet om det.
Djupets hemligheter!
Livets intution!
Intressant underbar resa. Och mina underbara barn, har ocksa startat att ha roligt med malarpenslarna.
Not done, still in working progress.....I have never painted a hummingbird before, it "just
happened ;-)"
Today I looked up what it stood for; "In many traditional cultures of the western world the hummingbird has powerful religious and spiritual significance. In the high Andes of South America, for example, the hummingbird is taken to be a symbol of resurrection. This is because each hummer becomes lifeless and seems to die on cold nights, but it comes back to life again when the miraculous sunrise brings warmth.
Namaste, has a deeper spiritual significance. It recognizes the belief that the life force, the divinity, the Self or the God in me is the same in all. Acknowledging this oneness with the meeting of the palms, we honor the god in the person we meet.
That's Amore, Namaste

When we
assume hummingbird consciousness, our life becomes a wonderland of sensuous
delights. We live for beauty, delighting in flowers, aromas, fine mist, and
delicate tastes.
When it becomes our totem, the hummingbird teaches
us to laugh and enjoy the creation, to appreciate the magic of being alive, and
the truth of beauty.
Hummingbirds awaken us to the beauty of the present moment. As they
dance the four quarters of embodied exisence, they bring us medicine to solve
the riddle of duality. They also awaken us to the medicinal properties of
plants.
Namaste sign in the triangle, Namaste, has a deeper spiritual significance. It recognizes the belief that the life force, the divinity, the Self or the God in me is the same in all. Acknowledging this oneness with the meeting of the palms, we honor the god in the person we meet.
That's Amore, Namaste

THE COLOR OF MY LIFE
Last summer I started painting. I had never before held in a brush, nor did I know the different words for being part of the "art" society. Instead of taking painkillers for my Lyme disease I started painting. I called it Pain Paint Therapy. My paintings were a play of colors and motive. Shy, since I didn't want anyone to laugh at me.
But suddenly, I started to see the shyness as another therapeutic thing. To give a darn what others would think.
My children, always gives me compliments. They never see their mother doing anything ugly. The eyes of innocence.
This summer, I started to make our outdoor room (two walls) to our art room. Together with Max and Olivia we created the room together. And, that is so much fun. Having a good time, and sometimes friends comes over, loves to be creative too.
That's Amore Summer!
