Watercolor & embroidery on paper

What is the world you make for yourself, while you sleep? While you dream? What are the thoughts you choose for yourself while you pull your weeds?  Where do you go when you get lost in your own head, sitting in traffic on Thursday afternoons? What are the words you speak to your own being, the songs you sing - while you take the dog for a walk or change the sheets?
 
Ideas, dreams, memories - they decorate our mind and adorn our thoughts. Some we are gifted, by choice or by curse. Some we realize we’ve absorbed like a wet painted wall we bumped into by accident. All we have the power to keep or discard, to replace or repaint. May yours be warm, welcoming. May your inner world be a lovely place to inhabit, richly adorned and lovingly decorated.
