Some days I am okay
Some days I am not
Today is one of those days
I need to lean in to You a bit more
So I can know I am okay, even when I’m not

My brain doesn’t want to function
My legs and arms are lead
My eyes cause confusion
So hold me as I lean in a bit more
So I can know I am okay, even when I’m not

Right in the middle of a sentence
I forget what it’s about
And I just float for a few moments
In the nothingness of thought
Keep me close to Your heart
So I can know I’m okay, even when I’m not

I wish that I could will myself better
But that is not in Your plan
I can learn to trust just a bit more
A human being rather than a human doing,
As I lean in to You completely
So I can know I am okay, even when I’m not

    BARB'S ARTWORK
    It seems to fall into the category of Aleatoric Art. I just scribble &  it looks
    like something 
    to me, so
    I turn it into
    whatever I see.


    ​Aleatoricart posted this description in September 2011 (this is an elevated view in my opinion):

    "Aleatoric Art is the ultimate collaboration between
    man and the elements. Happenstance, randomness
    and a twist
    of fate’s unwilling wrist go in halfseys
    with some of the most outstanding visionaries
    the planet can boast in a peaceful
    yet often violent serendipity of
    creative cacophony
    to produce works of art that go far beyond those
    of mere mortals alone."
