Collaboration

One of the most fun aspects of parenting is sharing the joys of color and movement with new/emerging artists. Art is so inherent to all of us.

I doodled a drawing ✍️ and my daughter saw it and got really excited because she wanted to color it in. So she did.

Today is New Year’s Eve and freshly cut flowers are on the table that I wanted her to pick out. We are on our way to our church and appreciating the foggy 🌫️ and rainy day which is a unique occurrence in our sunny home city. 🌆. New beginnings are so exciting. Especially because we also begin ‘again’ at the Lunar New Year 🧧 where we will be welcoming the Fire 🔥 Dragon 🐉. I’ll be running a class at that time, called “Reluctant Shaman.” It’s meant to be a small group, so the spots are full for this iteration. If you are interested in joining, use the contact form and I will add you to a wait list which is approximately 7-8 weeks from now.

Let me use this moment to ask you about your small, perhaps unnoticed collaborations. You might be working with roommates, family members, or even pets. If there are none of these friends to buddy-up with around, then maybe you can invite in a spiritual guide.

Wouldn’t you like to collaborate more in the New Year? Here are some thoughts for your consideration.

1). Name one of your favorite flowers.

2). Go to the internet (this one should be easy) and look up as many different images of your favorite flower.

3). Either go clip your flower from outside after asking it permission. Or, go to the grocery store to purchase your favorite flower. If neither of these options are available, then just look at the image of your favorite flower and IMAGINE the smell.

4). After you have done this, write a little note to the person who you would like to collaborate with. Tell them they are a great friend, sibling, roommate, and list one quality you love about them. Then if it’s not a real, in-flesh person, put the note next to your nightstand, and sleep with it near you for 31 days.

Happy NYE!!

P.S. Even if you did none of the above things, still check back later to see if your seed planted and it might even take root simply with your focused desire while reading. ☺️

  3. Very cool idea and perhaps Shamanic! I think I am a reluctant mystic lol! Your class sounds cool and if I lived near you I would most likely have signed up. Thanks for sharing yourSELF with us.

    Much love to you in 2024 my near and far friend ❤ !

  5. My first image of a favorite flower was honeysuckle. The collaboration exercise is intriguing and one more thing nudging me away from introverted tendencies. I’ll definitely give it some thought. Happy New Year!

    1. This comment totally went through! Is it a 2024 miracle? Thank you, and that’s a great idea. This year I do hope publish my 2nd poetry book (first one in 2017). 🩷

      Coloring book is a very interesting idea… 🤔

      Hugs and love, Debbie! Glad the comments work again! (Hopefully!) at least this one showed up.

      1. Woohoo Ka! Yes, it looks like I’m back! (not wanting to jinx anything, lol). This is definitely a good sign! And yes, if you have the talent to draw (which you obviously do), then yes, a coloring book with some inspirational sayings could be a cool idea! So stoked my comment finally came through. Hugs and love your way my lovely! ❤
