This is what I saw today or on a day just like this ...

October 29, 2010

 

Today I saw someone. I have a history with this person and that history is not "life-giving" for me. My heart is so tired of struggle and sorrow.

"We must learn to regard people less in the light of what they do or omit to do, and more in the light of what they suffer."
Deitrich Bonhoeffer, Letters and Papers from Prison

Today I was very much looking forward to being alone. I worked very hard last week and weekend.

I slept late. I awoke to the sunshine. And then everything flooded into my brain. All the appointments and undone work.  I would like to go to the desert and rest.

"Through the Thou a person becomes I." Martin Buber, Ich und Du (1926).

Studio Result:

Hansa Yellow is the best colour for today.

Connie's Journal

From time to time I jot down my thoughts or observations.  I often find that painting begins with contemplation.
