goals Goulds and gold
Julia Cameron wrote a book called the Artists way
Dr frederick Franck wrote the Zen of Seeing
one the life coach recommended morning pages
one hold a pencil lightly take a little piece of nature
meditate by gently allowing eye n heart n hand and eye
to really see and feel the mutual being
i subsequent to reading these many years ago and many years apart
became a life coach on a course ran by john haynes
the grow model blends well with both of the books above
goals to see life pour out what in ones own G
reality i draw and i write R
options O
way the when where n who to learn W
from and share with
has some anchors
when one has gone around the clock of grow 12 3 6 9 g r o w
one then does so again
my goals are manifold and all i feel serve other(0ne of my core values is to be part of life)
1.Heswall on the hill
Goulds and Bluemoon to be beacons
as they both serve to offer employ to others
and provide encouraging locations where creative playful
images and object d'art may be shown or where the materials for making
seeing writing cooking playing music living in full colour
so my goal on the hill to be a spark that lights the bulb of joy on Heswall on the hill
2.to be well and fit
to make a body that can move think and play
in an inspiring way that delights God the child self of my mothers child
3 to live an abundant life
As a Christian i feel that Jesus wants for both myself and everyone
a varied unlimited faith fuelled life ( i give you a life of 'a bun dance')
a lifelike a bird flower or child
he prefaced the beatitude ( be attitude) with 'i tell you the truth'
'unless you become liken unto this child'
'consider the birds of the air'
'see the lillies of the filed....how they are arrayed'
so just staying with these three goals
Reality
1.Heswall on the hill
a.I have successfully ran a few short course at Goulds
i have commenced window changes and placed lots of materials
and reciprocally enjoyed the kindness of Ann and Mike Sue Erin and jenny
in helping me to market course and provide tea coffee smiles ans wows as other
partook
of seeing in six primary colours
with watercolour
oil paint and needle felt
salt dough
and collage
b i ave encouraged the son of a friend to pass me his fathers poems)DEREK JONES
and i have been seeing sharing with PHILIP BROWN
with a mind to publish through Goulds poetry books and books of creative joy
i.e toi create for Ann and Mike their own publishing company
also at Bluemoon Sue and I have provided a course focusing on flowers
and mindful camaraderie
2.to be well and fit
initially early summer my physical work out
was to paint redecorate and address the showcasings
of Goulds and Bluemoon's with a sort of
Matisse flavoured graffiti
to get a little attention flag up
Heswall on the Hill as a happening
i added to this the courses
and then a little bicycle riding
when i went to see my grandchildren and my son and his wife
they inspired me further
whilst i have been a i feel attempting to create
a virtual garden in paint
they have creted a growing joyful edible one that is really incredibele
i took sam the dog for daily walks and enjoyed watching
ben and isobel( about to be seven) both swimming like fish'''
'well my body said i used to do that
so listening to its request and being a man i#of faith i
and seeking to get fit enough to become a fish again
so i have over the last few days been cycling to Thurstaton
going ot the gymn and walking fro Bluemoon to St Peters church
oh an diet
I am monitoring my weight and choosing foods
that are are more likely to see well being and weight loss
fruit veg and meat
and limiting dairy grain and sugar
though as thius is the reality section i confess
to a party and a very full tummy at friends last night
3 to live an abundant life
i have being a person of attempted Chrisitan values
removed myself from groups duos and situtaions
where i felt the company was limiting
either too focused on Britishness
masculinity machismo or genre
thus having liberated them from a potential critic
and me of the danger of poison in the perfume of ones hope
left me to focus more on
various techniques of making
a greater range of materials to play with
a happier a bun dance
so I am painting and celebrating women in a series of 100 paintings
i am making and teaching salt dough and needle felt and collage
my reality includes the joy in later life of finding that the rainbow
for painting is twice as primary coloured
so my new work is informed by syneasthesia and chromaesthesia
flavour as colour and music colour coded on my musical instrments
i get to play bass in church allowing me to root about rather than
learn cliches that ears are expecting
as i enjoy finding both melody harmony and scribble
sort of marks and textures through the tactile time based
hand in duo movements- the left and right duet
my home is filling up with colour joys and my eyes are
loving the pigeons and regular seagull visitor
i love film and go out with two girl friends
friends of angel kindness
i love chatting and being with Derek and kara in staacks where i meditate of magazines and books to tea
it was coffee and cake but i must address being 1 stone heavier than i want to be
there is lot more reality than this but i want to get on
Options
Heswall on the hill to continue to relaod the window
market the courses seek development into mindfuelled
crafted personal projects for the friend i have a s staff
and students
and seek ways to bridge with other providers
say eventaully on behalf of poets and creatives
e.g linghams not corporates like smiths
as i do want to feed foot fall of local growth whilst
remaining world relevent'for if i am
anti brexit then i should anti all
'closed systems'
so to publish distribute take part and offer space for sharing
2.to be well and fit
sustain and create some kind of weekly timetable without rutting myelsf into monotony and routine
maintain gymn dietcycle walk spontaneously et all
3 to live an abundant life
in some ways the options here are to remain unpredictably spontaneous
to the gap between my thought(Deepak Chopra)
and so to the WAY forward
1.Heswall on the hill
i have established courses that start with specific times and content this week at Gould and Bluemoon so TICK
i have received the poems of DEREK and my fiend ian has provided me with publisher and have commenced making
and also have drawn and created a nice time of sharing and nurturing with Philip to encourage our progress as creatives with Gould as a publisher in mind
in response to requests for a calligraphy and creative writing element i have designed an idea for
october 1st a monday 12-2 course
and i would like to create a general art course for Blue on Fridays
so will ruminate and chat to Sue perhaps i might make it a four saturdays midOCT to mid NOV
I will redress the window at Goulds
2.to be well and fit
i will get down to 13.3 and rejoin weightywatchers
i will as i have found the book
create a food diary very soon
i will go to the gymn monday morning at nine
and twice more this week
3 to live an abundant life
just watch me!
