Brainstorm Back ...

I'm stuck home with pain and a back that makes me feel like I'm sixty years old. But instead of feeling sorry for myself, i am brainstorming for my upcoming projects. Right now i am researching human hair felt !!! I've been looking for ideas and materials that are uncommon and provoke feelings and sensation. It's funny how much people are touchy about other peoples hair ... It's also an attempt to create from the self and from a material that surrounds us in vast quantity.

I really love to brainstorm and sketch ideas ... I can feel all the possibilities ...

I'm not good at blogging ...

So i started this blog to share ideas, my work and everything involved in the creative process ... Well not good at all ... it always take me for ever to share what i am working on ... Probably part of my creative process, i guess. I tend to nurture my ideas for a long time and them to work on them for a good amount of time too ...

In the end i am incapable to share any work that i feel incomplete ...

But is there really an end to an idea ...

So Good ...

I've been feeling so good this week. I don't know why exactly but i feel more confident, more energize and less stressed. All that even when i have many projects to finish in the last three weeks of my session. I feel like giving back and contaminate others with this vibrant and positive energy that is inhabiting me this week. The last months have been very hard for me and i am thankful for the people that have been there for me. When i was lost and facing shattering changes, a few words and a compassionate ear were able light up my day. So today i am sending that same energy that has help me find my way again to others that could need it also.

So if you need a little positive in your life today ... Tune in and welcome the flow that is there for your taking ... Just don't forget to send out again when all is better ... Karma is a beautiful thing !!!

DARE ...

CHANGE ...

OPEN ...

WELCOME ...

BE ...

Just a few words i want to incorporated more into the writings of my life. It is never a pleasant feeling waking up to a life you did not dream of ... I've been wondering if i am ready for change ... to accept it in it's definitive state. Am i ready to accept the end ? I've been working on that and getting lost at the same time.

Let go ... Fly by yourself and be happy of what you can accomplish without any help ... You are strong ...

Those are my kind words for myself today ...

Confidence ...

"Have confidence in your own experience" Natalie Goldberg

This is the mother of all truth ... to have confidence in yourself, in what you do, in your past, in your future, in what you have learned trough laughs and sorrows ... You are always the one that know best about yourself and your choices ... You can make the same mistake over and over again, but if you have confidence then no one should criticize your journey ... One day, we arrive at the point where we have more confidence in not making that same mistake and the journey continues in a totally different and unexpected way ... in another direction ...

No one has the right to judge the journey of another. Just be there, be open to them and accept them ... Be part of their journey has they are part of yours ...

All nice in my head ...

I wish i had all the time in the world to work on all my creative projects and i am pretty sure a lot of people wish the same. I am confronted with a lifestyle that is not suited for me. I find it totally depressing having my head full of ideas and projects and no time for any of them. But school is great ... i am learning so much this year and my future in textiles is getting clearer and brighter everyday. I am working on a possible job or internship at Cirque du Soleil, in the hat workshop ... but still nothing is set in stone for now ... Just lots of hopes !!! I am also working on my prototype for next year ... It lives in my imagination i predict it is going to be fantastic !!!

So now i am off to school ... on a fabulous sunny saturday ... need to do some weaving.
