Severed Hand of Christmas Joy

Severed Hand of Christmas Joy

Oh, well, it’s that time of year again where I make scribbles and dribbles or Christmasy Mush to delight you all and to spread the Christmas cheer! What cheer…oh what cheer ….

The world needs A LOT of Christmas Cheer.

It also needs to collect the severed hands of all the cruel people in this world too. Oh what a day that would be …but let’s not be heartless during the holidays, is that being heartless? I can imagine that would be a lot of severed hands though. We’ll call it Mount Severed Hands.

But instead we’ll just imagine a happy little severed hand decked out in Christmas lights.

Well, that’s as far as my Christmas spirit is going to take me this year. I have no Mushmas cards to give out, paper crafts, or sweet baked offerings.  This is the first doodle I’ve drawn this month unfortunately. But I shan’t let the cruelness of this world destroy the whimsical mush! No I shall not!

Letting Go of this Year

Yes, this is the time of year to let go.  To look back at the year and reflect. Ahh, reflection…

And I’ve already gotten a new journal! Funny how I just keep on keepin’ on …

Letting go is a hard concept for my stupid little heart. I’ll hold on to something that’s not even mine to begin with. In hopes that what I feel and dream will somehow make it come true.

Fog surrounded me in a swirl of delusional idealizations…the fog lifts. I am struck with the pain that I have not learned anything about life thus far …

And here is a severed hand doodle I haven’t drawn in quite a while. I hold on so tightly that I don’t even realize I’ve gone and ripped my arm off.

My mom sent me this meditation message from an online mediation group she is in and this was in the message. How much it resonates at this time of year.

Or any time really when you’re struggling with remaining or letting go …

How easy it is to say in your mind, how very hard to let the strings of your heart detach and let go… because you know they will break. But you’ve been here before so it’s nothing a mushy heart can’t handle!
