111 Day Artistic Spirit Pledge: Spiritual Growth Through Creative Expression
Day 8: An Artistic Representation of Spirituality
Fueled by nourishment of what grounds us and surrounds us
We grow – vivid in color and rich with beauty
Our petals reach in varying directions
As we stretch towards new destinations and goals
We’re rooted in the Earth, yet extend towards the sky
Swaying in gentle waves or brutal wind
Our hands seek help while our feet keep us solid
Dependent on nature’s maternal clock
Our colors bloom and fade from day-to-day
As we react to both internal and external stimuli
Earth, Air, Fire, Wind – we’re exposed to them all
What elements do we let harm and what strengthens?
**I am an Artistic Spirit! For most of my life I’ve used the creative arts as a source of spiritual exploration and healing, even though I didn’t always do so consciously. Sometimes I was the instrument creating the art and other times I was on the receiving end. The connection between art and spirituality is so significant in my life that it’s infused into everything I do. I love music, theatre, television drama series (daytime and primetime), and creative writing and find fulfillment in artistic expression of various sorts: singing, acting, and jewelry design. Throughout the next 104 days, I’ll delve into how all of the above strengthens my spirit and has saved my life on more than one occasion.**

So beautiful! Did you make the necklace?
Thank you and that is one of my designs. I don’t make the pieces, but I piece together the whole. 🙂
