What is a journal?

Great idea Koeli. 🤗 It works like a psychoanalysis of one's self, to assess the strengths, to assist in corrections, to understand well about ourselves!    Keeping a journal is a great way to record your thoughts and understand your emotions. Typical journaling involves only writing—but for those who are more visually inclined, an art journal is a great alternative. An art journal is a visual diary, it combines elements of writing, drawing, painting, and even printmaking to express yourself. This includes your everyday life, as well as your bigger hopes, dreams, and fears. A single page will often fuse words and illustrations to offer a look at what's going on inside your head!! Doing so offers a way to de-stress and to sort through complicated emotions. As a result, you gain self-awareness and feel empowered. 

Vyapti, art journaling is a way to practice self-care. It encourages you to take a little time for yourself—even if it’s just for 15 minutes a day. When you look back at what you’ve written, drawn, or stamped, you can gain valuable insight into the challenges in your life. 

I really appreciate this initiative Appy. 🤗

I have made my facebook account a journal then. 😃

The sketches are simple yet beautiful.

Wall painting done by me at my old house

This is painted by me and guess what? The sparrows have made nest too

I have painted the rack by myself ... I love gardening and painting both ❤️

Will try to send a closure look as well 😀

Your artwork looks very beautiful Mahira. 👏

Fragrance

I will go to a different world

Where there will not be

Any single person in between.

I will lose myself

In the woods that are

Lovely dark and deep.

The promises that are to keep

Will loosen themselves from the branches,

Fall one by one like raindrops.

Pristine white drops of flower

Lie on the earth

Surround the tree.

The scent of rain soaked earth

Will enchant the forest.

I am running

In between the trees

The sky hidden between

The canopy of leaves.

The sunrays playing hide n seek.

I am on a swing,

You come from behind

Cover my eyes.

" Who am I?"

You ask.

"The one with soft hands"

I retort.

You pick up

A mud soaked pink flower

And put it on my entangled hairs.

Playing with mud wearing those

Expensive clothes!

The leaves start to murmur

The trance is over

Was it all a dream?

I look for the flower in my hair,

It is not there.

"Come once again.

Tell me it is not a dream."

I murmur silently.

I look around

Find nothing.

But my whole body is

Emitting the fragrance of that flower

The familiar yet unfamiliar fragrance

That marks you

Wherever you go.
