I draw a lot of silly things. But sometimes I make less silly things because our world isn't as it should be and life takes dips that need to be processed. Between hormones, disappointments, and sidelined sadnesses, I took a chunk of time to sit with my feelings on the floof in my office, and this piece practically doodled itself. I love it. People are made up of parts that each need to be valued for the role they play in the whole. Not to excuse behavior always or to be followed as truth, but to be seen and listened to to be better understood. I think growing self-awareness in this way can also grow our capacity for compassion toward one another on our off-days. Sit with your feels every once in awhile. And go to counseling, it's awesome.
