The Heart of the Matter

I am so visually oriented.
This 2 page spread is a reminder to use my heart
to see clearly
instead of relying on outward appearances.
This will lead me
to the heart of the matter.


Journal pages: art paper, acrylic wash,
fabric, embellishments and found images.

  1. I completely agree with you and Dr. Wayne Dyer to look beyond appearances. But do you find that sometimes it takes the heart a little bit longer catch up with my mind? Interesting and insightful.

  2. @Tina, I guess I don't believe the heart needs to catch up with the mind. It is the mind that leads us astray in the first place. We tend to make judgements so quickly and usually based on something we have seen. So looking with the heart means to go to that place within, call it intuition or your inner self, and let the truth unfold from a centered and grounded place.
