I have just woken up after crashing late in this afternoon. I went to my first 'proper' art therapy session this afternoon and it was a pretty intense, verbally 'busy' session. I enjoyed hearing about my therapist's 'other' life as a singer and her views about recent episodes in the life of our Episcopal Cathedral. It was an interesting challenge to me as I was being talked to and my views sought, I wasn't passive or the subject directly. I had a chance to explore how well I could remain emotionally detached and avoid moving into an overly empathetic and intuitive response. I was able to do this which is the great news - but I found I needed to sleep - deep - afterwards.
While I was listening, I started experimenting with a design for the front cover of The Sharing Space. I suspect it may not be anything like good enough for a professionally produced book cover, but I thought I would give it a bash and submit it anyway. Apart from anything else it was fun working up my thoughts. I don't consider myself particularly strong on graphic design - but I am glad I had a go. I will now have to translate the idea onto canvas; will the fun never end?

When I loved myself enough I gave up the belief that life is hard.
