I hate making mistakes….there I said it. Some are small and leave no ripple. Oops and on life goes. Others cause pain in our hearts and hurt more deeply. Sometimes the memory of a mistake even lingers and holds on. It whispers and tugs and makes us think less of ourselves and lies to us.
When I sat down to draw this weekend I knew exactly what word I wanted to draw. As I began to draw I had no real plan. I began by drawing my word, then I began to move around the paper doodling in separate spaces. Finally, I added lines, shapes and more doodles to connect them all together. What I ended up with was a lot of different doodles….some good, some mistakes but all together it’s beautiful and not at all what I had expected.
Our mistakes remind us of our imperfections….we can listen to their whispers, give up or embrace them, learn from them and move forward and do better.
looks like you make beautiful mistakes.
