Free wRiting, What happens as I am witnessed, have and affirm my truth in InterPlay? How is it affecting how I live my life?

I believe that in one of my focus sessions I had briefly stated that I was very comfortable with " Change" - Change not only is my friend but has and still does represent not only survivival but also a whirling vortex of the spirit.

Internally , When presenting my truth in focus sessions I found my self ossilating between experimentation with new ideas, to wondering if I had exposed to much of myself and perhaps should have maintained better boundaries in regards to my subject material, to feeling
frightened by the Open beauty of the eyes and ears that have said to me non-verbally, " I see you, I hear you, You are Here and I am here."

I have completed reading 2 great books
One of which was Spirit Taking Form: Making A Spiritual Practice of Making Art by Nancy Azara. I felt that I was on a journey and decided to go quite literally where my psyche was pulling me. I was just thinking of one of Dr. Seuss's Characters... saying... " Oh... Oh.. the Places I Go!".. well thats like what its like.

This the Website for Nancy Azara: http://www.nancyazara.com/home.html
and a link to a blog from the Brooklyn Museum http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/community/blogosphere/feministbloggers/

I had not realized it but as a woman and as an Artist how important the fuel of affirmation truly is: not only to recieve it but also to give it. Thru out history Women Artists have always been there but only existing in the the anonymous shadows of time. I am constantly on the lookout for historical Women Artists.

The Other Books that I had finished was Choreographer Twla Tharp: The Creative Habit. This was truly useful to me and sits as a resource on my book shelf & This is a great fun link to Dancy/Dancy a U-Tube piece of Twyla Tharp choreographing a new piece.. Ahhhh..
all the arts are an inspiration to themselves... : )


See everyone tomorrow.
