I find that those are the most fulfilling moments of being, when I am able to do that. For the most part it tends to get chaotic and then writing is the best way of meditation and contemplation on experiences. I am glad to hear that you liked this post. Thank you for reading and writing in. Much appreciated.Gopika Nathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05045583005627540260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684977402503425005.post-31793214568357773282015-07-22T17:47:28.789+05:302015-07-22T17:47:28.789+05:30 A very sensitively written piece of literature, w... A very sensitively written piece of literature, which indulges in self-reflection and analysis of experiences of life in a philosophical way. Each experience, if experienced consciously and reflectively,leads one to wisdom.

But you are right, the issues we face are universal and healing through stitching is something that everyone can relate to. Once again thank you for sharing.Gopika Nathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05045583005627540260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684977402503425005.post-90448342511387294292015-06-27T15:23:34.241+05:302015-06-27T15:23:34.241+05:30Thanks Gopika.

I'm sure you will understand the main line, because I did nothing but say what you said, just say it a way it makes still more clear in french how much you can heal with textile art. I wish I take the time to translatee it " properly", I mean putting the readers feet in your path, to make understand how " universally human " was this ordeal, and thus, alla the profit we could make of it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684977402503425005.post-22171178075146809892015-06-24T13:45:41.112+05:302015-06-24T13:45:41.112+05:30Thank you Austere, you're right some things ar...Thank you Austere, you're right some things are easier to accept than others - I find it very useful to use stitch and thread as an analogy because being inanimate - a thing, the emotion is distilled and I find greater clarity. Most of the time, as I am working a thought pops up that is compelling and I have to write my thoughts down there and then. Obviously there is deeper thought given before I post. I explore the idea with time and thought, but usually the inspiration and insight is revealed while stitching.<br /><br />Thanks for reading and writing in.

I surely appreciate your comments and will see the link in French - I hope there is a translation facility there as I don't read or understand French at all.

What you express is so close to my path : living the sewing and the stitching as a personnal spritual way. How technical options, or making options reflect inner decisions bound to the deepest requirements of one's interior life is properly a wonder. <br />Thanks for sharing this journey where know-how and art of living " weave " together, it echoes so perfectly in my mind, it is exactly the kind of things I feel when working. Learning, through making, where and when your intuition wants to guide you to perfection, and you learn to listen to thus little voice whispering into your ear, I think it's the highest you can ask to art. I'll share these thoughts in french and let you know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
