Trust. gouache on black 6 x6 just a reminder for myself -Trust, I just have to keep focused on my tasks & remember to Trust God - as with everything. It's easier said than done, watching some events unfold, it's easy to get caught up in chaos.
Trust in your own wisdom & know when to step back, that's what I am trying to do, regarding a few issues. I have only owned a cell phone since living here - 3 years. I noticed several things and mostly - I don't like what I noticed. I do NOT believe it is healthy to be available to others, ALL the time. I do NOT agree with communicating with someone every day - even with texting, not anyone. I noticed with a few, that had become the 'expected' routine. I do not enjoy having my time & thoughts interrupted, several times throughout the day - HOW the heck can anyone truly create anymore with constant distractions. I can be in a fantastic mood painting- get a text and just like that - I'm no longer painting but pondering some text... I have now started turning my phone off for days at a time. I throw it in a drawer & forget about it. I still access IG on my iPad but I do not have messaging, email or phone on my iPad, I use it for reference photos painting & social media & podcasts as it sits on my desk. Very few have my landline number, I will talk to friends the OLD school way - hahaha for now. Everyday I strive to be better, mind & body - isn't that the plan? Each day - it gets easier & Im happiest looking at paint & paper over a tiny mind draining screen.
Storm bought me a gift (that thing above) know what it is? I did not..
It is a tongue scraper' & every single time use it I gag and almost throw up - not fun, but I preserve ... lol
It was very thoughtful, since he knows I've been having issues. I've used it only a few times and am blown away with a few things I have noticed after only a few uses! I was enjoying 'Davids loose tea... I scraped my tongue once - made myself a tea and hated it. How strange! Suddenly I tasted fake', artificial' and couldn't believe I've been drinking this stuff, couldn't even finish my mug. Everything tastes stronger & usually better (except for that tea) ... it's all tastier. Breath - some days I have bad breath (don't we all)... instantly my breath has been better - no smell what so ever. Can it be that simple? It sure does appear so! No more mouthwash, that I've been reading actually causes harm, destroying all bacteria good & bad, no more bad after tastes... I can only scrape it once - I do not enjoy feeling like I'm going to vomit but I can't deny - I am noticing positive results, already. Thanks Son. Scrape or do not scrape - the choice is yours.
Georgie Porgie... call me - old school. I know you know, the number. lol
Next - a cartoon about my tooth adventure- it continues.
