I was listening to Tara Brach speak about dropping the doing: about going from human doings to human beings.
This is really speaks to me, as I have recently found myself cut off from connection, cut off from really feeling, mostly because I am so distracted by all my doing. Part of me wants to hang on to doing and being cut off, because it feels safer- it’s what I know.
I want more slowness, more time to savour what is here. It’s all disappearing so quickly.
Seeking joy! Here are some of the ways: Colour! Sun! Improv! Hugs! And especially Trying new things!

I am you & you are me.
Let’s do this life thing together.
Back and forth between “trying to make a good painting” and enjoying myself. I give up on the trying.

The monsters of perfection slow me down, keep me from doing what I love, tell me to not bother creating things that aren't worthy, and keep me in procrastination-mode. I am grateful to them for keeping me "safe".
What do you do to push past the resistance they create?
This is it. This life is what I’ve got, so it is time to do what I love, and stop worrying about what everyone else thinks of it.
Want this painting? Make me an offer by private message. I’ve accepted everything from money, to honey, to dinner, for paintings.
Some people are worried they aren’t offering “enough”. Don’t let stories of not being enough get in your way. If you want it, and offer from your heart, I will hear you.

Those voices in my head were nattering again, and I consciously chose to listen to the quiet one that had something good to say.
A few nights ago, I found myself contracted, and wishing Braden would do more, show me more love, touch me more, and reach out to me, and I realized how my contracted desires are one of the ways I project my story about “not being good enough” onto him. For me to feel more love, I dropped the expectation that Braden would do things for me, and did them for him instead. This simple turn-around opened my heart, and brought us into connection again.

Growth: I began writing a text to Braden today, and I deleted it all, because I suddenly saw how I was creating suffering by wanting things to be different.
Instead of pushing my partner to connect with me by communicating his feelings, I really understood today how valid his experience is, and that I can stay out of his stories, and stop projecting my stories onto him. I can allow him to be who he is, love him for who he is, and also know that I can take care of myself in whatever way is necessary (and it doesn’t have to involve him at all).
I am not perfect at this, by any means. But I think that the more I can acknowledge the times that I am able to see how I am growing, the more I am able to grow.

“Send Love” 12″ x 12″
Some days it is difficult to send love to those who need it, because I have my own shit, my own triggers, my own stories. I am getting better at noticing when my needs are not being met, and seeing what I can do to meet those needs, instead of expecting others to meet them. And once I have met those needs, then I am able to send love.
