Day #23 Inktober 2019 • Ancient

We may say that it's ancient history or water under the bridge. But deep down.... Is it? Doens't it haunt your mind? Doesn't it seep into your dreams and resculpt them into nightmares? Make you overthink every move you make?

I haven't even told you what "it" is. But you know and it scares you more than anything.
But hey, it's ancient history right?

Ancient history can be dug up, restored, repurposed and exposed. All these interpretations and feelings are being projected into this world. These abstract impulses are part of your personality have nowhere to hide but out in the open. So what do you see in your past? Is this the honest face you show to the world?

Day #22 Inktober 2019 • Ghost

The moment you think you have found your peace, the ghost of the depression awaits you.
It lurks in every corner, in every ally and behind every door. It will wait until you least suspect it to comes back to haunt you. It is the monster you fear under your bed; the sound you hear in an empty house; the thing you so desperately want to disappear but can never quite shake off. Even in your safest of spaces it will come for you and drag you back into the darkness.
You find it in your friends laughter, in your family's attempts to aid, in your tiny peaceful moments. It will never leave you alone.... never truly alone. Depression is also there in the darkest of times, right by your side keeping you company. Never leaving your side and always watching over you.

Day #21 Inktober 2019 • Treasure

You may travel the world, and have worldy possessions. But your greatest treasure is your own mind and body. It is your permanent home, take care of it.

Sunshine is necessary for growth, but so is a little rain. So water your plants with your deepest sorrows and let rays of happy sunshine parade in your garden. Then watch the flowers bloom.
The trick is to balance it out. Don't let them drown and don't dry them out. Every new thing is an opportunity for further growth. Take it and make it yours. Be kind to your home, it is your only true one.

Day #20 Inktober 2019 • Tread

Tread lightly around the treacherous beast. It might be dormant now but it will awaken once more. It lures in the shadows and sticks with you forever more. Waiting for the oppertune moment to strike. A slight sign of weakness is all it takes. It just a question of how you are going to deal with that sticky mess?
Are you going to accept and wait for the beast to swallow you whole? Or are you going to stand up and walk forwards?
You will fall a couple times, maybe even a couple thousand times. The important thing is that you get up, and rise to the challenge of tomorrow.
It's just another day.

Day #19 Inktober 2019 • Sling

When you break your arm, you put it in a sling. When you break your mind, there is no place to rest. You just have to carry around your heavy head and heart. To the outside world it is not that obvious that it's broken. You look fine; as if nothing has changed.

This ladies and gentleman is why a broken mind is so hard to understand.

It's because it is frustratingly invisible. No other but yourself can see it broken into a million pieces. When you ask for help they don't understand what they can't see. That pain is untouchable for them and almost surreal which is what makes the pain so much worse.

So talk to them.
Explain the pain they can't see.
Seek help.
One day that broken mind won't be so invisible and it will slowly start to heal with love and support from the ones around you and the strength you will once again find inside.

Day #18 Inktober 2019 • Misfit

Sometimes things just seem misfit.
The pieces of your life's puzzle just don't seem to fit together. Life in some moments just feels "wrong" . It's just off and not how you want it to be. But you put on a smile and pretend it's fine while internally struggling to piece it together.

Sometimes you need to take a step back, breathe and then re-evaluate. Eventually all the pieces will fall into place.

Day #17 Inktober 2019 • Ornament

🎼"The most wonderful time of the year" is around the corner! That means everything gets ornaments! Houses, trees, packages, presents, clothing, hair! It's one of my favourite things to do; adding in little details. The thing I love adding to my art. A little attention to detail can change a whole. So take some time in your day to day life and pay a little more attention to the small things around you. It might just be the little something that you might have been looking for...

Day #16 Inktober 2019 • Wild

The mind is a wild thing and it can not and is not meant to be tamed. It needs to run free from time to time. Free from the constricted vision of society. If not it goes crazy and the mind dies.
Be creative, have fun and let loose from time to time.

Day #15 Inktober 2019 • Legend

Legend has it that "these are the best days of your life!" "How can you not be happy? This is the happiest time of your life!"
And to be truthful; this legend terrifies me...
If this is the best time of my life ... I am terrified to see what comes next.
Am I wasting my "best time" feeling that it's my worst? Am I actually shredding my happy days thinking these are my bad days?

Day #14 Inktober 2019 • Overgrown

I often look around and don't understand how I got there. How has time flown by that fast? I feel like a child within wearing grownup skin and clothes. While society seems to know exactly what to do, when and how to do it.
This usually leads to stress, anxiety and a huge pressure to succeed. Most of the time I don't know what I'm doing. But while talking to others it appears that no one really knows what they are doing, and that's okay. And from time to time it is okay to let that kid inside out to play.

Day #13 Inktober 2019 • Ash

Once the dragon of depression has gone into slumber or finally left; all there is left is ash. Burnt every last thing to the ground. But with all that ash there are so many possibilities to start anew. From the ashes a phoenix can rise empowering you with a fresh and mighty new beginning.

Day #12 Inktober 2019 • Dragon

The magic hasn't left inktober yet but it has taken a turn for the worse. Depression is like a dragon pure evil, incredibly mischievous and malicious. Guarding the most precious thing to ever see the light of day again. Greedily taking over the mind and heart and dragging it down into the darkness.
