“Do what intrigues you, explore what interests you; think mystery, not mastery.”
—-Julia Cameron, ‘The Artist’s Way’
Hi, my name is Kimberly, and this is my first blog. I see this as a space for my random thoughts and creative musings, some poetry, a little art, and as a place to gather articles I’ve found of interest to me which might be of interest to others as well.
Star in the Stone refers to the saphire, which is my birthstone. A beautiful blue gem which appears opaque until it is held to the light, and rotated slightly, and you see the star appear. This seems analagous to me, of the events of daily life, which parade past us somewhat chaotically in a seemingly random continuum, until in retrospect, we review and roll around in our mind what has occurred, and some flash of insight springs forth. This is the needle in the haystack, the ghost in the machine, the joyeux de vie, the star in the stone. I hope we all find it!
