What is Happening Now?
Obviously, I do much more than what appears in the blog. It is impossible to include everything that I do for my evolution and healing. You saw how much could be written about only three drawings, coming to investigate what is found in an empty space. And I could even go on. So now there is a gap. I have gone much further. Trying to catch up seems useless, since life is here now. Whatever is lost, is lost. Maybe some parts of this time will appear on their own when I deal with what is now.
I get up this morning disoriented. I don’t know where I am. The whole day stretches in front of me, asking: What will you do with me now? What do you want? Where are you? I don’t know. I have plans. There are so many things that I want to do. But there is some confusion in me. I need to become clear.
I draw this:
Busy inside the cells
I collect words and sentences. I scramble. With the words in the new order I make sentences. With not much effort they become a succession of meaningful sentences. Here they are:
In detailed elaboration
He pushes in front of him the tired
Blessing flags.
The love in the all
Fills the fields
With loads of successful agriculture.
The good eternal earth is there.
And even if he may feel
A bit clogged
There is growth inside of his cells
There is busy activity inside of him
Gracefully and humbly
Building his vivid core.
That’s encouraging, isn’t it? Now I am better prepared to tackle my day. It is good to know what is happening in my subconscious.
I used to be a graphic designer and an illustrator. I became involved with the Chan Meditation Center and studied meditation and Buddhist knowledge with the late Master Sheng-yen from Taiwan. For twelve years I was in a process of deepening my meditation. I had many more experiences and insights and my life changed. After having illustrated more than 40 children’s books and writing two of them, I left this career too and went to New York University to study art therapy.
