We are still recovering from this past month and my father's unexpected passing. I am trying to pick up the paints and brushes again, but my heart isn't quite in it. It helps to have orders waiting...I just sit and look...wanting to fill the palette with bright happy colors...layer upon layer...watching an image form on a canvas of nothing......guess God is doing that with me right now...one day at a time...
You are in my prayers. May God grant you peace, contentment, and happiness.
ReplyDeleteGrief is a process. It cannot be rushed. It takes as long as it takes....one day at a time.
Oh dear ! You will be in my prayers too.
ReplyDeleteKijsa, sometimes work helps...I know it is hard to get back to normal...I hope your artwork can bring you a bit of peace.

ReplyDeleteMy thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Know that what ever you do, you will do in your own time, in your own way and it will be good.

ReplyDeleteI'm praying for you and your family during this difficult time... trusting God to comfort you like He never has before!
ReplyDeleteI say a prayer for you and your family every night....Your Dad will always have his arms around you.....
ReplyDeleteHugs,

It will come in due time... be kind to yourself and dont force it... when you are ready you will be able to start anew....
ReplyDeleteIt takes time .... and its been soon... if you cant paint... try a sketch... something simple ...but even if that doesnt work and your heart is not in it... give yourself whatever you need..... to grieve... it wont happen over night sweet one...
One needs to allow oneself to feel the emotions they need to feel in order to start healing...
HUGS AND LOTS AND LOTS OF LOVE TO YOU

You are in my prayers. It takes time. Allow yourself that.

ReplyDeleteI am so very sorry to hear about the sudden passing of your Dad. I was just catching up on my favorite blogs, and read this. Time is the only thing that will bring relief.
