Pure Therapy
I haven’t created anything in over a week– no writing, no art, no photography. I’ve been so overwhelmed at work and emotionally drained that I haven’t had any energy to do much. But I always feel better when I make a mandala. It’s very calming to me. So I made myself sit down tonight and make this one. However, even this image is filled with frenetic energy. But the act of making it was pure therapy. I’m posting it in the abbey because it feels safer in here.

It’s glorious Lori; I’ve looked at it for ages and each time I look I see something else.
This is absolutely beautiful.
I agree with Jan. This is glorious Lori. You know that Jung made a mandala a day. Which reminds me to scan my drawing for the day.
This is gorgeous! So vibrant and involving. Good job!
This is truely lovely, and so vibrant and alive! See, works of beauty can emerge even from the most seemingly unconducive of circumstances!! This is living proof!!
