Hola amigos del Internet!
How are you guys this new Monday?
Here we have had some rays of sun and spring it’s starting to show. I mean, it’s not the official spring day yet, but you can smell it in the air and of course you can see it in the little blossoms, you can hear it in the bird’s songs. It’s also obvious in the sky, it’s something in the clouds and the colors of the sunset.
It’s still cold, but very decent cold. And according to my weather app we can expect some heat (around 68F) this week. So let’s see. We know nothing.
The changes of season invariably make me reflect on time. Time is one of my favorite subjects in this existence. Like, you can feel the spring but it’s officially not here yet…to me the timeline is so subjective, the experience of time is so unique to each one of us, how relatively time passes or stops. It is too much to condense it in a timeline. So abstract to let it live in a linear succession of events.
Sometimes I feel I live in a frozen state where nothing moves, and others I just see everything going so fast. And my favorite experience is when there’s no time at all. Not having time allows you to not have shape or limits, no separation or movement.
I think maybe that’s why sometimes I enjoy my alone time so much. It can be a little difficult to accept that in this other reality people gossip, people fight…but anyways, that’s also the magic of time. While all this ephemeral dream is happening, the unmovable freedom of not individuality happens too.
But hey, those are my insights. And lately this topic, has been intense.
I don’t like how social media insists in make our awareness spam shorter every day.
Like, why would I want to make people think I paint a painting in 15 seconds, with 4 close up brushstrokes. Why would I want to take away the enjoyment of spending time painting from someone? I don’t know, maybe it’s because I’m getting older and I refuse to believe in TikTok, I tried, I opened an account but now I deleted the app.
I’m more into Audible these days and you know, into long walks with Ophelia and deep connection with mu beloved husband.
What are you up to these days?
What are your insights lately? Let me know.
I think is amazing what we can think. It’s like magic. Words and thoughts we think and say are like magic spells. It feels many tines as if what we think we create.
I realized something yesterday.
What do we think about ourselves? Because, it feels like what we think of ourselves is what we become outside of our minds. For example, if I think I a fearful person I will probably act like that in the objective world outside my head.
If I think I’m smart I will create moments in my daily life where I can freely be smart.
You follow?
I’ve been asked many times why am I an artist.
And I’ve always answered with confidence. But yesterday I was presented with another perspective: Why you are not artist? Mind blowing, because in the process of answering that question I realized a bouquet of lies that I think of myself. And by making them a list I was able to see how much of lie those reasons are.
So I thought in all of us.
Making it a list creates a beautiful space for you to realize they are lies and it allows you to start fresh, new, clear, pure…beautiful and perfect as you are.
Try it if you feel like it and let me know how it works for you.
I hope you guys have an amazing and insightful Monday.
I hope this Monday helps you to detect the lies and toss them, I hope this Monday you see the most pristine Truth about who you really are.
All my love & sparkles,
Ishani

OMG I changed to an electric toothbrush and wow, it makes all the difference in the world. My dentist recommended Oral B and that’s the one we bought and I swear my teeth looked cleaner and whiter after the first use.

Do something for someone. I started a new painting and it will be a gift for the amazing doctor who healed my dad. My heart sings in gratitude for him and I really wanted to say thank you in the way I know best. The painting is so full of love and gratitude. See the pics below.
