A day before December

 It's a day before December. I'm thinking about something transitory, something hard to catch and describe. Like a moment when one month turns into another, when one year turns into another. Time. Would time exist if mankind did not invent its terms, clocks, calendars, etc.? Minutes, hours, months are artificial division. And we can't touch them, catch them, save them for later. Does people from other place in the world have more time than us? Does everyone have the same amount of it? We have clocks to show us the time but what if everyone would have it own hour? Who would be right then? Time... More complicated thing than I thought! 

 

Working space

I'm working on having working space now. A room is not complete with only bed and few boxes with my things. I need something more... Another great invention of humanity- a desk and a chair. Power of simplicity!
Look, how many things I can do having them:
# draw!
# write letters
# work on my computer
# make plans and to do lists
# chair is the best clothes hanger
# do nothing, just sit and drink tea/coffee/... and wait for inspirations
# cut out photos from magazines and then glue them into one of my notebooks
# .....

Before the Christmas rush

 I feel the Christmas pressure already on my back. List of people who I want to give presents is growing. Ideas for perfect gifts disappeared (why, o why I didn't write them down?!). Will I wake up one day and decide that I actually hate Christmas becouse of this madness? Well, this year I'm close to do that.

 My friend posted interesting appeal on her fb wall: to support small art galleries, shops, artists or friends that create something nice, becouse the money they'll earn, will go directly to their hands, for their needs. Not to big companies, that pay the lowest salaries to their workers and look for the cheapest labor force. Worth considering! It made me rearrange my shopping lists and plans. Imagine how positively world would change, if we'd choose to support people and their work, not corporations and their business plans.

Do you think we have cocoons? Like butterflies have? That we transform, change into new us? Do you get from time to time the feeling of discomfort in your own body, with your own thoughts, with yourself in general?

I get that feeling. And for a while I feel uncomfortable with myself. But then the new perspectives open. Some walls are breaking in me, I discover new spaces, feelings, new me. Maybe butterflies transform only once but human beings transform all their lives?

I'm getting old, you know? Becouse I look at little girls from primary school and I think: I was like them long time ago! How many years, problems, joys and toys ago it was! And how crazy ways of life are to bring me where I'm now.

Flowers in your hair

Wear a flower in your hair from time to time. Why? To colour up everyday routine. To be less serious and more feminine. To surprise. To do something differently. 

I found nice book lately in a book store which is a cafe at the same time. It was about fashion and about doing it by yourself. My favorite idea was to make a dress from round tablecloth. I have to try that! Extremely simple and looking nice. It made me think about how seldom we do something by ourselves. It's much easier to buy it but it is not that much fun. And where's the individuality there? I'm a big fan of Do It Yourself. DIY rules! :))

A little bit more courage

Everyone could use a little bit more courage. Maybe I gave my fears too much space? They took place of dreams and hopes. Fear = something that usually doesn't happen. Dream = something that I can make to happen. Time to rearrange what's inside my head. Sorry fears, I need more space, I'm sweeping you away. You are not that powerfull as I thought you are. You are just my own thoughts, not the reality.
