Inspiration Isn’t Far

One of the things I’ve learned since starting this blog is that the more I try to think of ideas, the more the ideas materialize. When I began, I was skeptical that I could come up with a new idea every day. I thought the ideas would run out within a few weeks, and that it would become increasingly difficult to generate new ideas. For anyone looking for inspiration, my suggestion is to just spend more time daydreaming and opening up one’s mind on a daily basis.

Creating as a form of therapy is a continuing theme on this blog. Today, I found that blogging has taken a really bad start to the day, and turned it more toward the positive.

Here’s the colorized version of the post from a couple of days ago – my vision from the dentist chair.

I believe today’s “If Flowers Could Talk” image speaks for itself.

Here’s another doodle for the “If Flowers Could Talk” series. I created a category for it in my sidebar.

I find it relaxing to invent flowers.

Maybe this will become a series on the blog – inventing flowers and trying to imagine what they would say if they could talk.

It’s the simple pleasures that make life delicious.

Is it a sign that you’re eating too many crullers if you can draw one without needing to look at one?

Today’s doodle is dedicated to that lightning strike moment when you say to yourself, “Why didn’t I think of that before?”

I had a couple of requests for yesterday’s image in color. So here it is—

2012 is only a day and a half old, and this is what came to mind this morning.

Frozen Ground

I had this idea about planting seeds on frozen ground. I seem to have an abundance of scattered thoughts  today. It made me curious, so I researched to see if there are any seeds that can be planted when the ground is frozen. Apparently some types of grass seed can be planted on frozen ground.

Maybe some of these scattered thoughts will grow into something later.

A New Year A Fresh Start

As the new year approaches, I can’t help thinking about those things I’d like to freshen up in life.

Wouldn’t it be great if we could buy “life freshener” in a spray bottle? It’s a challenge to make changes, and this year, I’m finding it a challenge to figure out what needs to be changed. Maybe it comes down to picking one thing and sticking with it – taking one goal and making it the priority for the year. For the past several months, this blog has been the one thing that I’ve tried to stick with every day, making a post no matter what. It’s true that I’ve missed a few days, but for the most part making the blog a priority has been a success. I wonder if it’s possible to add a second priority without affecting the first!
