Dig Deep - Two

The first Deep Digger *already* has brought up some amazing stuff for some people this week, without naming anyone. Some extremely sensitive subjects which we don't always talk about in the open can be good to incorporate into your Art pieces or your dig deep box/journal. Apart from the fact that no one really needs to know about some stuff (and sometimes we even hide from ourselves right?) it can feel very freeing, liberating to open up some old canisters full off 'rubbish', untreated stuff you have never thought that it was (still) there. Yes, it can and will often hurt. But  once looked at, it is easier to deal with. 

What you resist persists. What you look at disappears. (Neale Donald Walsch)

Now for the second deep digger.

Change.

What does change mean to you? Does it worry you if you hear the word come close? Do you thrive on it? Are you the type of person who gets bored as soon as life becomes 'regular' and requires change to stay sane? Does change mean something in the bigger picture? As in Evolution? Do you feel connected to change? Has there been a certain event which has changed you, made you stronger? Weakened you? Lit compassion in you? How do you feel when circumstances change? When others seem to change? Or when you change? What is your reasoning for changing certain behaviours or circumstances? 

There is a flickr dig deep group where you could go to discuss or post your pictures and you are also more than welcome to come and discuss or post on our ning network. 

However, remember with these diggers, there is no need to share. Feel free if you like to, but keep them to yourself if you would rather do that, I don't mind either way. Bliss.

Hi Vivian I am a bit slow to start with this and the first word and now second are very much a part of my life at the moment. My 6 year old has been diagnosed with Cerebral palsy and our lives are about to change forever and our honesty in dealing with this and others has had mixed reactions, so I am keen to record all this right as a way of letting it all out and dealing with it.

Hi! Viv,

This is a wonderful exercise, I'm enjoying some, shuddering at others but so far haven't backed off; I'm still working at digging but will share down the track.

Sounds like a deep project, interesting, and am sure many will benefit from doing it whether they share or not.

I felt an overwhelming sense of disappointment when I learned my brother was in the ER and my mother's day plans would need to take a back seat to his needs, at the same time overwhelmed with fear as I love my brother very much...and wanted to be at his side, there was no question of that.

Then I felt a bit selfish when nearly as soon as I got to the ER he was being released to go home...so I felt relief on both scores; and he agreed to come with us to my daughers, so I could keep an eye on him and have my cake and eat it too, so to speak. Pun intended!!!

Whew.

So I did okay with the "change", but felt all my reactions of emotions involved...

How are you. The dead might as well try to speak to the living as the old to the young. Help me! I find sites on the topic: Bathroom cabinet design. I found only this - lowes bathroom Cabinets. Mirrors are frequently used in interior decoration to create an illusion of space, and to decorate and amplify the apparent size of a room. Although modern antique fashioned vanities.
