“A long life may not be good enough, but a good life is long enough.” -Benjamin Franklin.
I thought I’d do something different on this image. It’s a sketch / paint blend, with a paper background, so that it looks a little old school and handmade (not digital). Looks like this man knows how to live!
I’m still having to struggle in order to stretch my imagination as to what I’m wanting to create. I decided that beach themes go well with feeling calm (or quiet and still) inside.
I started to laugh at myself the other night because I was thinking about how my posts must sound to people. Honestly, when I talk about anything that I may be pondering or struggling with, no matter how big or small it may be… it’s with the hope that someone might connect. It’s not so I can just ramble on about myself here.
If that idea doesn’t come across in my words, it’s possible that I simply sound whiny. Trust me that is not the case, not at all. I just throw out whatever comes to mind, and it’s like I am fishing… I sit back and wait, to see if my thoughts catch anyone. Sadly, if I had to eat what I caught these days, I’d probably starve!
So… I’m thinking that this approach doesn’t really work anymore – and maybe it’s time to change things up. Maybe more images and less talk. Maybe some short stories and no talk at all. I don’t know.
I’ve been paying attention to my actions since my last couple of posts – and trying to make sure that each moment counts. It’s been going well! I also started watching the documentary series Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones.
I may talk more about it later, but in the meantime I would recommend it to anyone interested in living not only a long life, but a fulfilling and purposeful one as well.
Anyway, I guess that’s all for now. Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed something here!
Until later,
Peace & Love!
