glow sticks!

i've totally been feeling this way lately. geared up and excited for life when inevitably something says...'yeah that's not happening'. i'm going to be stubborn though and keep getting pumped up about life. care to join in? :)

daffodils

i've always loved daffodils. they are typically the first serious flower to venture out. i see the green shoots first and then get antsy for the flowers to appear. i also love that you'll be going along and then boom...you see a bunch of daffodils in someone's yard. i normally can't help exclaiming to whoever i'm with (or aloud to myself) 'look daffodils!!!!'

which is why i loved that at my last yoga workshop weekend while learning about prana yoga our instructor jennifer ellen used daffodils as an example. she talked about how sometimes you have to venture out or put yourself out there. move out of your comfort zone...much like the daffodils (as she said) pop out and scream 'it's spring!' you'll see the daffodils come out while snow is still appearing but they're above ground...excited, assertive and brave.

i could learn so much from these flowers :)

drawing with light

life magazine had some photos posted on their website of picasso drawing with light. what i love is that even while moving around a flashlight type thing in mid air his works look picasso-ish. not that i'm an art critic or anything

(i've totally only taken a basic art history course :)

i just thought they were way cool. next fourth of july i'm definitely going to do more with my sparklers.
