My weekly sketch, of things I love, this week is...Daydreaming. I love to have a little time to myself to have a little
daydream. I think about what life will be like when my little boy is older. I
dream of owning a small tea rooms, with a craft shop attached, in North
Yorkshire. More than all of this though, I truly believe that you need to daydream and take
a little time to recharge your mind. We live in a world full of technology to
entertain us, which is wonderful, but it can come at a cost of our sanity. We
appear to be living in a more stressed society than our grandparents, which bearing
mind they lived through two World Wars and a depression, seems a ridiculous
notion. When we do have a spare moment, we check our emails or texts or Twitter
or Facebook or Pinterest etc or we watch telly or surf the net. This week I
have made a conscientious effort to dedicate time to my imagination and
creativity or just to simply sitting doing nothing and its been reinvigorating.
I asked my husband to give me an hour of craft on Wednesday night and I sat
with no music or TV just melodious silence.
I implore you to give your mind a well earned reprise from the hectic life of
2013.
