My girlfriend's parents have an eBay store & were selling this folder & templates of Amish art featuring a rosette pattern. This rosette is found in the center of the "Flower of Life" symbol.

The Flower of Life is a geometric construction of interlocking circles that is the basis for the design of the strategy game I created, "Da Vinci's Challenge".

I must confess something...

My wifi is down. Down and out!

I'm fairly certain at this point that my provider went out of business and didn't bother letting anyone know. Can't find anyone anywhere that seems to know anything. 🤷🏼‍♀️

But there's good news... we have a new provider coming on the weekend and best of all... I've been forced to *unplug*!

And truth be told, I have been trying to spend less and less time online. This has just been the extra push I needed.

Since last Saturday, yes, I've still been posting and sharing here but, I've also read a few books in my *to be read* pile, I've organized cupboards and cabinets in my house that have needed it for while, I've enjoyed the outdoors more, and I've sat down to write... meaning there are new *Rabbit & Bears* to come. ❤

Anywho, there it is, my big confession. Lol. I can't recommend it enough!

"Nothing's working." said Rabbit.
"Have you tried unplugging?" asked Bear.
"I don't plug in anywhere." said Rabbit.
"Yes you do." said Bear. "You're plugged into the world around you."
"Oh." said Rabbit, giving this some thought. "How do I unplug then?"
"Close your eyes, let your muscles relax and listen only to the sound of yourself breathing in and out." said Bear. "After a while, when you feel ready, plug back in, and try again."

Trying to see this world as a giant coloring book 😁
--

Color

The colors are done hiding within thunderclouds
That drift over the heads of angry and fearful crowds.

The colors are bleeding down, through thin mists
That sift slowly into all of the broken hearts.

Color is the medicine that will bring a joyful healing.

"All that is required," says a booming voice overhead
"Is … don't be afraid of color."

This is my journey

The Labyrinth Seed

The Labyrinth is your life’s path.
Manifest your desires by planting one of these seeds.
Your faith will water and feed the seed into growth.
Keep the other seed as your connection to this Labyrinth.
You are this Labyrinth’s Caretaker… so take care of it and it will become exactly what you need.

This is my journey

When I found this amazing way to make a blouse from a man's shirt video tutorial by Mee Ya, on YouTube, I really wanted to make one of these for my daughter.
