            Journey of A Creative Mind

   A very talented fellow I met on Yahoo 360 while blogging posted this beautiful painting.on his page.When I first saw this  painting it stirred up so many emotions inside me, it inspired me tremedously. I see a woman peaceful and serene at the same time naked an unihibited. I wish you could see the wonderful strokes and the true painting, it would not upload. When I saw this painting I sort of owned it as if it was speaking to my inner soul and knew me so well. When I write a Poem or a "Mind Blast" I find a painting that inspires and compliments my thought process while creating and writing the piece.

                                                     Journey Of A Creative Mind

                                                        by: Karina D'Aunoy

To the depths of my inner being

I  search for my peace

I cry to the heavens

The answers I yearned for daily

Solitary in thought

Pondering my destiny

Shackled by disbelief

I know deliverance is near

My lifeless body sinked to the bottom of the ocean

There is current a force taking me now

Lifting Me to the Sunrise

The True Journey as only begun

Open your eyes, Beauty is surrounding me

Out of the darkness into the Peaceful Sun

 The Road of the less Traveled is the path I chose for most of my life, God has guided me on this same road to the Journey of my Creative Mind where I meet many travelers today and every day. In the past when I was traveling that old road I plowed down way too many fields and made my own road. Even on that old road I found love, faith, and my holy spirit. Today I'm one with my maker and my journey. The difference now is Jesus is my Best Friend, not the Holier than though man I thought he was.

 There were many battles on my old road but Jesus held my hand even when I was in doubt. He showed me the wonders of nature and the lights of the Sun. I was such a wanderer in my past life and I studied people and their behavior, mocking it at times. That old saying Fake it Till You Make It, well that was me. All the while My rose colored glasses didn't allow me to see the REAL TRUTH. Today I see that truth ever so clearly. I chose today to love and love abundantly who I am and who you are. I always believed in myself but I wasn't quite sure why I did. God made me to LOVE and share my gifts with the world. I have so much talent but I didn't truly believe in me as much as I do today.

  Today I chose not to RUN, I've traded in my track shoes for a DREAM that I'm living ever single day of my life. God may not give you exactly what you think you need but He will give to you in so many ways. God is running his fingers on my heart as if he were FINGER PAINTING IT.

Not to God: Thank you for carrying me, holding my HAND, brushing the hair away from my face, holding me tightly through my nightmares, sitting with me on the Train, watching me grow, and most of all Thank you for the Abundant LOVE you show me every day, you are my BEST FRIEND

    I have discovered that I eat for some sort of emotional gratification. Discovering the reasons why I eat through "Train Your Brain To Stop Overeating" by Damien Young has brought to light my struggles with weight. When you were little did your mom or dad ever give you ice cream to "make it all better" the phrase they use to use? Eating can be an emotional trigger for many and sometimes it is for me. Today I didn't pressure myself to eat overly sensible since I know that my "Journey To The Jeans" will be first to discover my habits and triggers and work on modifying my thoughts. Of course eating sensibly and incorporating regular exercise will be a large part of my "Journey To The Jeans".

   My second day of my "Journey To The Jeans" is a day of self realization and admission. I feel I have taken one more step and I feel successful. Day Three will be looking in the mirror and accepting myself the way I am, cellulite and all. I feel I must first accept myself the way that I am TODAY. I have not attempted to try on my jeans as of yet but this will come in time.
