unwritten...

 

 "drench yourself in words unspoken...live your life with arms wide open...

today is where your book begins...feel the rain on your skin"

I have never journaled...there I said it...I confess.

 

But journaling is something that I am drawn to.  I see it as a place that I can go to write down my muddled thoughts...and if I am lucky maybe it will help to clarify my ideas and dreams.

 

Two separate things happened to me this week that drew me in even further...

~ Kathy's delightful blog...You'll Shoot Your Eye Out...hosts a song~ography linky party

each sunday.  The song of the week is Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield.  As I read her delicious lyrics..."drench yourself in words upspoken"... it got me thinking once again about my empty journal that is lying at my bedside.  Do I dare to pick it up...but how do I begin?

~Then I discovered Brene Brown's ecourse on art journaling... I took the plunge...I enrolled. 

There are two sessions...the first one begins this month.  I am very excited to start this journey...has anyone taken her first course...any thoughts? 

Her ecourse is based around her best selling book..."the gifts of imperfection"...  and she has joined talents with  Oprah...sounds like a winning combination!

"maybe stories are just data with a soul"... a quote from Brene...love this...sigh

 

I now know the time is right for me to pick up my pen and let my words and watercolours flow. 

 

have a joyful week...
