111 Day Artistic Spirit Pledge: Spiritual Growth Through Creative Expression
*Due to unforeseen circumstances, I’m posting Day 39 today in lieu of yesterday. I had it written but couldn’t get to a computer.*
Day 39: ART-IN-TEXTURE
Lining the street with color and design
History stands waiting for acknowledgement
Men, women, and children pass by
Focused on their destination not the journey
The architecture tells a story
With its intricate detailing
Straight lines and curves accentuate the frame
Creating art at every angle
Beauty may be in the eyes of the beholder
But does it exist if no one stops to behold it?
**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 72 days, I’ll delve into how all of the above strengthens my spirit and has saved my life on more than one occasion.**
