Using the Japanese art of Kintsugi to help heal my mind and thoughts with strands of gold or silver.
Rachel Jefferies The Path I'm on patterned paper and elements; black threads and background elements were changed to gold with Mommyish Holed Up Glitter Styles (gold); Lynn Grieveson Best Revenge word art.
It's a very creative and powerful page. Learning about kintsugi helped someone close to me when they felt they were irretrievably broken, so it always holds a very special place in my heart whenever I hear it mentioned or see a beautiful example xxx
@LynnG Wow, Lynn. That DOES make Kintsugi very powerful to you! it has certainly helped me, as well. This page, in particular, was very life-altering to me. It's quite a deep and wonderful concept. Thanks for taking the time to share this with me.
The two word arts that draw me in the most are "once I dreamt of being where I am now" and "wouldn't it be nice if something made sense for a change."
I speak for self. I once dreamt of where I am now. But now that I am here, it is bitter sweet; and I'm not quite satisfied and left wondering...maybe I should have gone another path. Perhaps that is a challenge with being introspective - constantly looking back, looking at now, and looking at the future...constantly analyzing...and not always liking the result of the analysis. Lol...but then you ask...who really cares?
I am glad you turned the lines from dark to a brilliant and lighter color...it lifts the mood and gives a sense of hope.
@ArmyGrl I totally "get it", Lisa. I wish I could stop looking inward and looking back, but maybe that's where our growth comes from. If it helps, I say all the time that if I had it to do again, I would go into the military. I have so much respect for you - serving our country like you do! Never doubt your decision! I even had my youngest granddaughter look at your IG feed. I'm trying to convince her into going into the military or becoming a canine police officer. (It WILL all make sense someday! - I hang onto that daily - things are getting "dismal" but the American Spirit will prevail!!)
