SEARCHING THE CLOUDS FOR SOMETHING LOST
ON THE BRINK OF BECOMING
*SOLD* - GUARDIAN OF THE MOON - She's in awe of the moon. She relishes the predictable cycles of lighting up the darkness. Sometimes the moon is a beaming sphere and others a mere sliver. Shining just enough to illuminate what she's able to receive at that moment.
LISTENING FOR THE PAUSE - The pause when you let your guard down and invite in the calm reassurance that things will be okay.
HE WALKED AS FAR AS HE COULD GO - He had always believed that he needed to keep going in order to have a full life. And one day he had walked as far as he could go. So many hills and valleys, always keeping a steady forward pace. And then just like that, he stopped. He stood in place for just long enough to realize he was finally exactly where he needed to be.
*SOLD* - WISE STORYTELLER - If you sit quietly and listen, she will tell you with nostalgic reverence of the times when calmness was her greatest strength and patience her most beautiful virtue.
*SOLD* - SOFTENING THE CRACKS - I want more softness. I want to bend not break. I want to fill the cracks created by life’s hardness with the soft material of compassion and understanding. Yet I honor those cracks for they made me who I am and keep me searching for soft fillings. Now I have a library of soft fillings I can borrow from whenever I need some.
*SOLD* - UNSEEN VISIONS - The vision has always been there, however dormant, making its way up through the soil that protected it for so long.
WAVERING CONFIDENCE
HOLDING SOFTLY ONTO WONDER - Holding onto the moments when your soul tingles from the delight of an experience that can’t be described with words. A feeling beyond known vocabulary. A feeling deep inside that perhaps can only be explained with a knowing glance and slight lift at the corners of one’s mouth.
*SOLD* - SLEEPY SHADE OF BLISS. - That feeling of bliss when you first wake up. You're still half asleep but the bed is comfy and warm, the blankets feel extra soft, your body is molded in the mattress, the sun is peaking through the shades and your mind is fully engulfed in present moment and the sensation of undisturbed comfort.
WISE STORYTELLER - If you sit quietly and listen, she will tell you with nostalgic reverence of the times when calmness was her greatest strength and patience her most beautiful virtue.
*SOLD* - TIME WAITED FOR HER TO SEE. - The vision had always been there, however time was always pushing and pulling from different directions as if in a game of tug of war. Distorting and challenging her previous understanding and perceptions. She grew tired of playing time’s silly games, loosened her grip in exhaustion and surrendered. That’s when things began to change.
*SOLD* - WISE STORYTELLER - If you sit quietly and listen, she will tell you with nostalgic reverence of the times when calmness was her greatest strength and patience her most beautiful virtue.
*SOLD* - PERFECTLY SATISFIED. - There are moments when the sun is out, the warmth is felt on your face, you take in a deep breath of fresh air, close your eyes, thing of your friendships and all is good.
*SOLD* - HER ASPIRATIONS FLOAT ABOVE THE CLOUDS
STATE OF SLUMBER
WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO CHANGE - (SOLD)
OBSTINATE. - Is that a good or bad thing? Is there honestly any good and bad or just a spectrum of places in between?
LETTING THE WORDS LIE. - There can be multiple meanings with the word Lie. Lie as in an untruth. Lie as in unmoving. A lie is spoken and it wallows in a puddle of water, drowning, turning it to mud. Or maybe a truth is spoken and it simply floats on the surface being observed without judgement.

CORNER CONTEMPLATRESS. - She’s not shy, she’s just overwhelmed. Overwhelmed with the thoughts of others. She hears them all. All the thoughts in their heads. So she sits by herself in the corner for a moment of peace and quiet. (Not For Sale)
*SOLD* - DREAMING OF THE PHENOMENAL - Day dreaming about all the wonder in the world and wondering if I’ll ever get to see all that amazes me and makes me feel a part of something bigger.
*SOLD* - THE WEAVER OF WORDS - A walking thesaurus of types, but more than that. An embodied knowledge of how to swirl sentences that can be felt deep in your chest. Words woven for your unique way of understanding. Once spoken, they live inside you.
