Reparative

Creativity is a reparative act.

acceptance

I would like to be like water, or rather like milk.
Completely pourable.
I am right now more like stone, or sand, or like a sauce full of lumps.
What does one do with lumps?

forgiveness

She told me that my work is not 3-D.
She told me that I use drape and gravity as result - not intent.

Before, I knew what to look for at night.
I no longer know.
Each constellation represents meaning that is a being
and all beings connect, so sky has spiritual dimensions.

Perhaps words like being or spirit aren't accurate.

slowly and lightly

It's dark because you are trying too hard.
Lightly child, lightly.
Learn to do everything lightly.
yes, feel lightly even though you're feeling deeply
Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them.
So throw away your baggage and go forward.
There are quicksands all around you, sucking at your feet,
trying to suck you down into fear and self pity and despair.
That's why you must walk so lightly.
lighly my darling
