not good enough / good enough

I went to bed in the middle of the day. The sun trickled in through my window. My soul / spirit curled up and cried in the deepness of me.
My eyes were dry.

grief – a thing:
tall slender tress
in grey rainy skies

So empty.
Yet so full.
So awake
Yet so exhausted
Drained and dragged and spread thin.
And still eager to give more and more and more again.

Textile artist, writer, and photographer (among quite a few other things). 
I love working with textiles, natural dyes & slow mindful moments, as well as guiding creatives (artists, crafters, photographers, alternatives therapies) on how to best share their work, voice & authentic self with their community & audience.
