My own story

 My own stories are often told in my pottery images. Thus this vase with 4 aspects of importance to my life. I have shared the first "Persist" side recently, so here are the rest of them.


Here's part of the creation of it, from Alchemy of Clay in 2017, and more completed work on it the next week.  










I focused on a detail of otters Here on the vase, beneath the tree of life, with drawing on curved surfaces as the topic.

So I obviously made the 4 drawings to express myself.

"My grandma told me that the Universe is singing in the snowflakes, the raindrops, in the trees, the water, and all Creation. Physicists call this holistic holographic universe. Lakotas call it Taku Wakan Skan Skan/Mitakuye Oyasin, which means everything is connected and related in divine rhythm, vibration.
Remember the Lakotas know that the song sings the singer. 
The Spirit sings the song.

I parked next to this jeep-like yellow monster. I feel so bad that a child has that window shade to look at in the back window. Eerie!

Good news - my iPad healed itself, with the latest update! I had no idea until a FB video had audio as well! The sound on the iPad worked again. So I checked out a new murder mystery to listen to while I’m sitting around waiting to heal. Can I get an update too?

Today's quote:

Even a wounded world is feeding us. Even a wounded world holds us, giving us moments of wonder and joy. I choose joy over despair. Not because I have my head in the sand, but because joy is what the earth gives me daily and I must return the gift.
