Hello My Good Friends!
It's been awhile since I joined you for T stands for Tuesday. Paint Party Friday and also Show your Face. So many sad things happened. I lost my cousin who was like a brother to me. How difficult it's been to face the fact he's not here anymore. We are still in mourning and it will take long to get over our pain and sadness. We are devastated. Time will heal us. Time always heals.
I made a journal page and I want to share it with you.
I think art journaling is a therapy. It keeps my mind off my problems and helps me to cure my heart.
“You will lose someone you can’t live without,and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn’t seal back up. And you come through. It’s like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp.”

I was saddened by the loss of your cousin. I was truly inspired by that quote, because I believe it's true. I've learned to dance with that proverbial limp after the loss of my grandparents (who raised me). Time lessens the pain, but even after all these years, someone says something, or I smell something that brings one or the other back into my thoughts.
ResponderExcluirArt truly does seem to heal. I'm so glad it is helping you. I also love the digital art you made this week. The coffee art is simply gorgeous. Thanks for sharing your week AND your art with us for T this week.
Sorry you are mourning the loss of your cousin, and hope that the beautiful art you make will help you to soon heal. Happy T Day, Hugs, Valerie
ResponderExcluirI am so sorry for your loss. I think you are right: art is healing - that page is gorgeous. And good books heal, too; Anne Lamott is one of the best and wisest out there. I don´t remember who said that good art, whatever the subject, is always uplifting. Happy T Day!
ResponderExcluirArt is an escape for many things, pain of the heart always tops my charts. So sorry to hear of your loss.

ResponderExcluirSo sorry to read of your loss! Journals are great for distracting from unpleasant thoughts (or even getting the thoughts down) journaling can always be kept as a private thing. ..my journals contain a mixture! Take care! Chrisx
ResponderExcluirSo sorry for your loss!! That is a marvelous Anne Lamott quote...and so true. We all keep limping along...and dancing. (Even if it is slower...joy doesn't have to be fast.) love and hugs Have a happy T-Day!
