I've been trying to push the real world into the background. It's hard to read the news, but also hard to look away. I will be at No Kings tomorrow. I'm not too tired and worn down to give up and roll over yet.. #DefendDemocracy #NoKings #standup #BlueSkyArtShow #background #photography #March

People pleasers aren’t truly focused on making others happy. They are trying to escape the shame they feel when they think they’ve let someone down. Realizing this helped me heal this. #awakening #growth #BlueSkyArtShow #mixedmedia #emotionalhealing #art #scribe #mm52w10 #mixedmedia52

The world has been wearing on me, and I just have to get outside.. It is really a wonderful planet to be on, and I do believe that most of the people here are good. . But why do all the shitty ones have all the power right now? 🤨😔 #sunlight #BlueSkyArtShow

Colonizers of Perspective #MixedMedia #Painting #Art #TheRoad #BlueSkyArtShow #EmotionalAbuse The loss of self is a gradual process in an emotionally abusive relationship. It took years to figure out what was going on, and by then I was so entangled in the mess that it felt like I was the problem.

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy. Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media. That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, and the arts – to prevent us from learning. It's Fascism 101.

Love does not require that we abandon ourselves. It does not ask us to prove our worth through (obedience) and self-sacrifice. And the moment we stop trying to pull someone forward is the moment we free ourselves to walk towards the love we truly deserve. Shane Bryant Kohler #BeYou #BeStrong #Art

I was diagnosed w/ #Lyme 7 years ago & tried countless things to fight it off. After the antibiotics, all food made me ill & I became scared to eat at all. I discovered that cutting out grains helped some, but eliminating toxic interactions in my life is what had the biggest impact. #HealingJourney

It drives me crazy when I hear the phrase, "People don't change." It's so inaccurate.. We are constantly making adjustments, learning, and growing.. The only people that never change are narcissists, because they lack the ability to self-reflect. #photography #SelfReflection #BlueSkyArt #Sequoia

When empathy is absent, people feel like it's okay to push their values onto others. They even justify it in their mind that it's somehow reasonable to try to control people who don't conform to their limited ways of thinking.. #NoEmpathyNoLiberty #PoliceState #USA #CollageArtist #ArtJournal
