My Birthday Today
So, today
is my birthday.Are birthdays tough for you to accept,or do you ignore them
entirely? I am asking this question because on this day I have realized that I
am content with my new age,and happy in my skin.It's the damn jam man.
I am stalling out as far as my creative,right brain is concerned.As a matter of fact, one of the best things about these projects of mine is that it is entirely my choice as to which one I want to work on at a given time. Maybe I feel inclined to paint,mold,or weave or sketch.Having choices the way I do is a huge portion of my recovery.
Expressing oneself creatively is so very integral in one's recovery from mental illness, and becoming a contributor to your own recovery even more so.
Visual arts are only one facet of a recovery aid.I know many friends of mine have developed their self esteem,self confidence, and can give themselves permission to excel in Dance,Acting,Sports, Music.Having been at this facility for going on six years,I have been privy to share in so many of my peer's talents shining through. For this I am greatful and Happy Birthday to ME!
