As far as m...Thanks for the encouragement, Nicole!<br /><br />As far as morning pages go, the way that Julia Cameron explains them in The Artist's Way they are three (or more, but at least three) handwritten pages of whatever is going through your mind at that time. She suggests doing them every morning, but I write whenever I can during the day. The important aspect is three uninterrupted pages about whatever you are thinking. I find that the process is really helpful because it makes me more reflective and more aware of what I am thinking and feeling and the reasons for that.Marie C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05503770169927177904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3361849807788554203.post-56712648068864221542011-02-08T08:22:31.480-08:002011-02-08T08:22:31.480-08:00Thanks for sharing this with me.

Its just how you look at it I guess. <br />I would like to know more about the morning pages.Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01609662096273310960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3361849807788554203.post-74471593581874978462011-01-12T21:12:15.005-08:002011-01-12T21:12:15.005-08:00I would love to sit and chat!

I was just thinking last night that one of the many things I love about you is that when you call me "my dear" it has never felt condescending like it can with other people. Thanks for the encouragement. And I have no idea how to reply to one comment except to use email.pistolsnprincesseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16067170793713995417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3361849807788554203.post-2913782220128034192011-01-12T17:03:55.147-08:002011-01-12T17:03:55.147-08:00I wish I could figure out a way to respond to a co...I wish I could figure out a way to respond to a comment specifically (surely there must be a way to do that!). I just wanted to tell my dear friend at pistolsnprincesses that I just read your purpose-full blog post. Good for you! We should get together and chat sometime about life and art. I do think of you as an artist, my dear!<br /><br />Guess I'll have to find another way to reply... :-)Marie C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05503770169927177904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3361849807788554203.post-37339117608992759892011-01-11T23:09:51.552-08:002011-01-11T23:09:51.552-08:00I have a post waiting to be finished and the first...I have a post waiting to be finished and the first few lines are almost the exact same as the ones you started this post with. I only have one "resolution" for 2011 and that is to loose 20 lbs by mid May. But I'm due with a baby at the end of April so that insures that this resolution will be met. Other than that I have set out to be intentional this year. Life has seemed to "just happen" to me in the past and this year I want to be as intentional as I can. <br /><br />Though I, too, have refused to call myself an artist in the past, lately I have discovered that my expression of art is personal to me. I look forward to reading about your journey!pistolsnprincesseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16067170793713995417noreply@blogger.com
