Work of Art

We paint a self portrait of ourselves revealing the beauty that creates who we are and the things we want from life. Constantly transforming within ourselves exploring our own internal growth. So similar our inner growth is to that of a flower that blooms, then withers and dies, then the seeds are planted again to bloom ever so brightly, illuminating the essence of who we are - for we are forever changing! Multifaceted, colorful and beautiful - that's what we are, even when we do not feel this way. Keep in mind that we are in fact a work in progress, constantly tweaking our own imperfections (or at least that's what we should be doing for ourselves.) But of course many of us never look closely enough to make the necessary life altering changes (or even small changes that would lead to the bigger picture.) So many of us remain stagnant, never being able to really move forward because we can't see our own reflections. (But isn't it amazing how quickly we can see other reflections - and how quick we are to fault or criticize another, instead of bringing one another up to where we all should be.) We search (or we say we search) we look for (something) but we can't find it. We take alternate routes thinking this route would make us feel better (fulfilled.) But for many there is still something always missing. We are incomplete! Our master piece is never quite done. But that's just it most of us want things when we want it, how we want it, and if that does not happen then we become unhappy. But NEVER give up on that masterpiece! Never shove it aside - it's intended for you always and nothing or no one in this world can finish it for you. The word "Living" should open the door automatically on self reflection. All things that are associated with living and it affects your life in any form or fashion should open the door to self reflection. Reflect and Paint! Reflect and Paint! Don't just paint a pretty picture and be blind. Reflect, Paint, Grow and Learn! This is your self portrait - what message are you sending to the world - what message are you unconsciously sending yourself? As once said "the longer you look at an object, the more abstract it becomes, and ironically, the more real." Lucian Freud
Will your work of art become a masterpiece? Or will it just remain an unfinished work of art?

The body is fascinating, everything it reveals unto us if we just gave it a moment to listen to it. The things our body reveals are deep. Th...
