| Introduction | I started this project originally for myself but realized that it may be inspirational to others. I am going to be making one paint stroke per day on a canvas for 365 days representing one year of personal growth in my mental illness. I will be posting a picture of the canvas on this site each day so others may see it's slow but sure progress. I gladly invite feedback on the painting, growth strategies and accomplishments and any other related feedback. This is not limited to mental illness. If you find it is helpful with something else you are contending with please share. A story or comment that you think is small may be huge to someone else just like one stroke on a canvas. |
| Interests | I am interested in reading about a variety of things. I like to compare things I learn from many perspectives so as to get the most truth out of them. I am really interested in being in control of my mind and at peace with my surroundings while getting the most I can out of each moment. I love writing stories w/all sorts of different characters and adventures most of which have been based on experiences in my life. I also like recording my daily experiences for my own personal growth. This also includes piecing together my past. And I enjoy painting. There have been some great painters in my family of which I'm not one but I enjoy it and honestly how many things can you say that about. |
| Favorite books | The best answer for me is that finding a favorite book is an ongoing search that I hope I never find an end to. |
