Connected

memories_edited-2

A bit of time for some journaling this last week…pages already painted and pictures pasted were all ready for the thoughts that come while sitting and thinking…

…from those crazy days when we feel like we’re swinging from one trapeze to another…

…to peaceful, soft and lovely poetry from William Blake.

Thoughts of self-improvement and progression can’t help but pop up in your mind as you reflect on a page just waiting for such thoughts to come out…

Bright colors painted and stamped just begged for words of cheerfulness…and Joseph Addison perfectly provided the quote required…

the past_edited-1

Sometimes the lovely faces I choose to illustrate my pages remind me of things about myself that my inner self knows, but my outer self sometimes forgets in the mad rush of days…

I have always felt very, very connected to the past.  And that, I suppose, is what this little blog of mine is all about--

That connection.

See you soon with something new…

  3. Hello Julie It's always nice to stop by and see what you have been doing. Your journaling is beautiful I really admire your hand writing. I really like the quote by J.A. I thought I recognised his name so checked on wiki (very useful) but what a sad end to a life filled with service.

    How has all the scraping going? not seen any LOs for a while. Love Dxx

  4. Very cool journaling, Julie. You are always up to something neat and interesting! I quote William Blake to my dog: "Little lamb who made thee?" and then I tell her, of course that our Great Big Wonderful God did.... **Smiles**

    Hope you have a very joyful weekend!
    Hugs,
