A Different Kind of Beginning

Indigene — Sun, 08 May 2011 17:46:06 +0000

I sit today, at the hospital with my Mum, spending time with her. I sit as if, I am awaiting for the beginning of a concerto, I know it will be bring me to tears, but it will also give me a sense of peace and beauty. My mother’s faith is great, as she always says, “everything begins, with the true maestro.”

Duet – The Real Dance

Illustration Friday is a wonderful outlet to get artists creating on a weekly basis. It gives a word prompt, every week. This week the word is “duet.”

Hmmm…I’m sure that word does bring about songs, music, dances, couples and possibly love. It does for me, too!

But, I took a little detour from the traditional visual. What comes to my mind is the “duet” of our inner and outer selves.

You, know that duet, that dance! It’s the duet we do when we present one self to the world and keep that protected, vulnerable, beautiful self, well hidden. We all dance this duet with ourselves moment-to-moment.

Now take a breath, slow and deep…I would like to invite you to show that beautiful self that you keep hidden, that perhaps only your family sees, or your friends see or maybe only your God sees.

Maybe you can only show it for a moment, that’s okay, you get braver each time you show your true self. Peel back your winter defenses and let your spring shine!

We are all deserving of our true self, to share with others…so that our duet of self can become one beautiful dance that we can all participate in.

Peace to you and yours.

Music

There is much written about music, and the only thing I can add is, listen to it with gusto, with your heart; your feet are bound to follow.

The beat of a heart is music and so precious, embrace it!

Peace.

Unfold – IF

“As life unfolds, there will be times you will get played.”

So many images unfolded in my mind, when I saw this week’s Illustration Friday prompt, but with so little time and simple materials at hand, I decided that sometimes simplicity says it best.

As always, I leave you with the seeds, you provide the interpretation.

Peace to you in this life of chaotic music!

Celebrate – IF

Celebrate to me always involves music. I mean really for me, a celebration without a song, a lyric, music, a ditty…well it just is not a celebration! So for this week, in honor of love, take the one you love, put on a tune that you can hum together, dance together or look at one another to and celebrate, because love is always a cause for celebration.

So here I’ve provided the instruments, the singer and a microphone, now all you have to do is improvise…celebrate!

Love, Happiness and Peace to you all!
