Hello, causally posting as though I haven’t been gone for a while 🫠

Still on my neon kick and worked on this creative burst a while ago. I always had the intentions of painting a swan 🦢 on it and using the bright colors as a background. But all my thoughts and feelings played with the canvas more than me and I decided not to cover it up.

Throughout the painting the Fruit of the Spirit; Joy, peace, love, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control are written. Can you find the 8 words?

I pray this is fruit we are able to develop and grow as we spend time with God and I pray this is fruit that we encounter on a regular basis everywhere we go.

So glad to finally start feeling like me again ☺️. For the past month (maybe longer) I’ve been experiencing burn out. I’m sure it’s been slowly happening but I was so accustomed to just go go go and move move move I didn’t pay attention to the signs. My main 1 being losing interest in the things that usually feel like rest to me. Like reading a good book or painting and creating things. I slowly was losing enjoyment in my favorite tasks and I knew then I needed to do something different.

Now I am focusing on the cause of my burnout and making the necessary changes needed to avoid this happening again. First was acknowledging that something was wrong 😔the 2nd part was accepting that I was the root cause for most of it 🥲. I have a bad habit of consistently adding stuff to my To Do List and it finally caught up with me. I’ve been on this journey for a little over a week now and it’s been really interesting realizing the habits and behaviors I have that contribute to getting burned out.

The more you know, the more you should grow 🌸

Here’s a closeup of 1 of the paintings I began 🖼
