“Seeking… Looking far
into the distance; to see
where Life may take me
Today… for Haiku my Heart {Fridays} over at Recuerda mi Corazon with Rebecca, where haiku fans from across the globe join every week to share photos and words. See more HERE.
So this is an image transfer in my Khadi-paper journal, of a boy standing on a rock, looking across a wind-blown lake. I used fineliner pens and Inktense pencils then lots of blended layers over the top. Textures courtesy of Jerry Jones @ Shadowhouse Creations. ♥
It felt like me, looking out, wondering what the next step is and how long I have to wait before I get to take it! Life is like that I find… We never move on until it’s “Time”. When all that we need to “do” is finally done where we are, then we move on. We go with the flow and often it takes us in a different direction to where we thought we were headed. But that’s okay too, because Life is a journey, not the destination, right?
I feel more restless lately, as if the time is drawing near, but I know that I must have patience, keep the Faith and trust in the Universe, because nothing ever happens until the Time is Right…
Truth.

/ October 28, 2011may Life take you
where you need to be,
where you want to be
and
may they be the Same Place…
{{ loving your art today;
looks rather like encaustic
but it is digital?
hummm…
seems much safer than my hot*wax
melting…
hummm… }}

/ October 28, 2011The quest to attain or achieve something is eternal and the pathways so many!! Waiting to look and decide on the right path is what I see in this gorgeous art work and the Haiku well describes it!!

/ October 28, 2011I like your description of life…yes, we have to be patient until the time is right. But on a day to day basis, I love being able to putter around the house on those special days when I don’t have to be anywhere, and just ‘go where life takes me’ each moment. I never accomplish what I thought I would, but it’s fun to see what does happen…

/ October 29, 2011Very poignant and thought provoking haiku and art. I know that restless feeling that comes when we know change is needed–or near.
Sue Fox
/ October 29, 2011I like your sentiment here ‘nothing happens until it is time’, I love the time shared here among friends who show up each week to support one-another through poetry. I have been looking at your digital artwork and am fascinated. It is lovely too to have a haiku-ing heart here on the same island as me!
Thanks for your supportive words re – my daughter much appreciated.

/ October 29, 2011Love the piece and the haiku, Rosie ! It is definitely the state that so many of us are living in in our crazy world. Lately, I have been trying to focus less on what is coming and rest, appreciate, soak up all there is right in this moment. It soemtimes helps the restlessness…
Here’s to the right time coming for you and your desire to know what is next.
Much love !
