New beginnings....old ways

Time to start afresh with my Dancing Daisies blog now the new year has started. I hope so much that those of you who have come here from Freeing Your Wings will enjoy being part of this new community. I called this post "New beginnings .... old ways" because I hope that Dancing Daisies will become very much like FYW in its content and in its community. I feel sure that those of us who are staying together, despite the changes, will continue to pay attention to our world and to our spiritual journeys, to be astonished by the confirmations that we receive and to tell each other about it all. I hope so, so much.

Moving on....looking forward....and being me

I've not had the easiest of years and have had to battle with my extreme anxiety as usual but also depression. It almost did me in during the last couple of months but somehow or other, like always, I got through and this is the beginning of me.....once more! :-)

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to you all. I hope you have a really lovely few days.
With love Lynda xx

Moving to a more personal diary style for my blog....

I thought I would begin to slowly change my blog to its new format so that any of you who currently follow me can get the idea of how it will change. That way you can decide if you wish to carry on following it as I realise most of you are primarily arty people...as I am too but as I said in my last post, I am going to change the basis of my blog now.

So for today I just want to post a photo that I really love and which rather sums up how some of my year this year has been....only deep inside me though, I have tried not to let it become too evident on the outside. Still my blog is very personal and so I think it is a good place to put it today. Today I am moving on from some hurts that have occurred this year, I am making a new start and much as this picture shows where I have been in my head, I am hoping the next picture I post will show me starting anew :-) I need to start anew, I am 65 years old now and still have some dreams to fulfil so there is no better time than today to take that first step.

A Christmas update

I am not sure if any of you still follow my blog but just in case...things have been a bit all over the place for me in recent months and I have today decided to close my social network site - Freeing Your Wings. FYW will close in the new year and at that time this blog will change its focus somewhat. It will no longer be just an art blog but will encompass the broader spectrum of Freeing Your Wings so will also become a place for healing and support. I will continue to run the distant healing group that runs on FYW from this blog as well. So...just to let you know and for now I wish you a very happy Christmas.

With love Lynda x

A journal page for a mini challenge...

Recently on my website www.freeingyourwings.ning.com we had a challenge to make up a message we would like to send to the world...this is mine. It is just a journal page but it was the saying I loved and wanted to base my painting around it.

Girl in a meadow

This is a large watercolour I have painted from Tamara Laporte's "Summer Girls" course on www.willowing.ning.com

A journal page....not done too much lately but have a big painting I have nearly finished.
