‘Feliz’, Inktober Tangles 2022, Day 26

I kind of got into the celestial magicky theme of this, adding moons and spirals and I’m gonna say clouds?

Inktober Tangles 2022, Days 22-25

This is a prime example of biting off more than you can chew. It took days to finish and that’s why I’m behind. Tilewave, Alitos, Hollibaugh, and Kwazeela tangle patterns.

Emotional flashbacks will I hope NOT become the new faddish psycho-babbly hipsterish self-absolvement method “du jour” in the way the phrase “I’m triggered by that so you can’t do it” has become. Going through the world bullying people by being the
biggest victim in the room is not cool; please don’t keep people in your life who adopt this strategy.

Daring to think the rules do not apply is the mark of a visionary. It’s also a symptom of narcissism.

‘Finery’, Inktober Tangles 2022 Day 10

All of us are subjected to somebody else’s power at some point. So once in a while you kiss ass. So what? Either you make your peace with that early, or you end up living your life as a crank and a misfit.

“Molygon”, Inktober Tangles 2022 Day 5

…mindfulness is taking undistracted time to become fully aware of your thoughts and feelings so that you can have more choice in how you respond to them…Mindfulness is a perspective that weds your capacity for self-observation with your instinct of self-compassion…a perspective of benign curiosity about all of your inner experience.
