Love and friendship

What things give you energy?

I’m trying to be honest with this post, I am honest when I blog but I don’t express my emotions here very much. What I will say is that when I’m down I get energy from love and friendship from family and friends. But what I don’t do is seek out those people when I feel sad. I guess I don’t like dragging others down with me. I hide away from them and instead of getting healing energy I feel lower moods.

But when I allow people to know what’s going on, I think I get positive energy from them. Which can lift my mood. It’s just finding a balance, it’s hard to do that.

I think I also get energy from doing art. It increases my enthusiasm to do more. It makes me feel free and able to use my imagination. I get a lot more energy from Art when family and friends enjoy what I do, in that way I know what I’m doing is possibly worthwhile. One thing I do have is imposter syndrome which means I feel like I question my validity a lot. Perhaps that’s why I blog.

  1. We take ourselves so seriously in our world and we’ve labeled everything. The last few years have shown me that. If you make art, you’re an artist. Imposter syndrome might just be words that keep us paralyzed or slow us down. I don’t think in real life it matters at all what we think we are. It’s what we do that defines us. I wasn’t a teacher because I was called on by a higher power to go into the classroom or born with a “teacher” gene. I was a teacher because people learned from me. Same with painting. ❤️😍
