All in home
As an artist, I am a collector. My garage and studio are crammed to the roof with THINGS! I don’t want to leave these as my legacy so it is time to declutter. I told a friend what I was doing and she suggested I watch “The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning” which totally resonated with me. Don’t leave your mess for someone else to have to clean up.
When you are so busy trying to prove yourself to the world at large (or maybe yourself) you can feel like you have to keep pushing yourself, striving all the time to reach more and more milestones. It’s exhausting. That’s where pretending can lead to practising. It’s all in the framing.
Home is a bag, a backpack, a book, a man, a family, a dog or two. It’s many things to many people, but as I have journeyed over the years, my needs are becoming simpler. Home is a a crackling fire, or the sound of waves at the beach. Shelter, birds singing and family.
