balm for the soul weary

lightly - with a slightly curved shield shape

'lightly, child, lightly.
you've got to learn to do everything lightly.
think lightly, act lightly, feel lightly.
yes, feel lightly, even though you are feeling deeply.'
aldous huxley - island

you have seen this passage here before because it touches me... a big thank you to robyn for reminding me of it when my scattered brain temporarily forgot it when i needed it most... the copper pieces were already on my bench as i had made them before the storm... how fitting to find the message awaiting me in my safe place -


and a huge thank you to all who commented on my last post... i was so deeply moved i decided to keep your words private;  please don't feel offended if you don't see them posted.

'lightly, child, lightly.

it was interesting today to realize that while working with a stiff metal, 

heating & reheating

hammering

folding & unfolding

gently bending and forming,


i was, in fact, doing it lightly... 


(contented sigh)



much gratitude to robyn gordon at art propelled  for sharing this passage... i immediately got the book and have since finished it...

a beautiful & worthwhile read...
