I learned to chant during the 2 1/2 years as a nun from 1964 thru 1966…hope you find your center and feel better soon. You are in my prayers.

There are some very lovely recordings of Hildegard of Bingen’s music, some with more contemporary styling and others with the instruments of her era. You might enjoy listening to the music she composed. I find these recordings very soothing.

You have expressed this post so eloquently in words and in the beautiful artwork! I get it! I really do! I love the first drawing – I am there and it is hard to explain to anyone – even myself. The picture represents everything – my son with severe autism and profound mental retardation, the seizure that added traumatic brain injury on top of everything else. my brothers death, my other son – having to be that “tough love” parent that threw him out – the never ending grief of my son with the every aspect of each of his diagnosis – 24/7 care – 19 years and he is getting harder to handle day by day – people (yes – family) telling me to place him in residential (instituionalized) care; now breast cancer – advanced spine stenosis so severe that I have to take pain meds round the clock – there is no end – never able to catch a breath because if I try – something worse happens… I get it – so eloquently worded – your work is beautiful! I hope your pain is more manageable and your grief minimal… xox my love goes out to you!

Wow, how the universe tells us things when we don’t listen. I too need to listen more and I love the thought of reading inspirational/spiritual works, meditating, being in nature, and then free-flowing in drawing/painting/or whatever. I recently was given the gift of tonques – and that has a new meaning for me as well – especially when it comes as song so beautiful with toning and sounds in whatever language the tonques decide. Trust, listen, believe. We are all connected and learning. Love every minute. My best to you along your journey and rediscovery.

Thanks for sharing the story of your spiritual journey, Amy. It’s amazing what our physical bodies will do to get our attention! I’m glad to hear that your reconnection with drawing and painting have helped with your healing. It surely was a challenging year for you. Hugs, Karen

Thanks Karen. Let’s see, I think the tea that day was an Oolong. Very tasty. A second cup was required after the photo shoot

Thanks Judy. Yes, the mug behind the curtain is one of my favorites. But I’m really drawn to the outdoor shots, like the mug in the grass and the mug on the rocks.
