Life Drawing

I was drawing today and started to think about my life . This happens to me every time I draw. It gives me a sense of freedom. I couldn't draw as I wanted whenever I got scared that I might make a mistake. I started to pay attention to my feelings and my drawing. I realized something; I draw so much better whenever I feel I'm ok and
I don't care what is going to happen. My lines are straight, no shakiness in my hand and I just rest the pen on the paper like it belongs, instead of fear of the next moment and the next dot not being in the same line as the one before. Do you see the meaning?

I realized; Life is like drawing; it doesn't matter how good or bad you are in it, it will turn out great if you feel it's going to turn out ok. Just like drawing, I realized everyone can draw. I can draw like an artist whenever I put the pen down with no fear and with the sense of strength. It doesn't depend on my skills...

It all depends on my heart. I remember my teacher told us last week; " don't be scared to use your pen, and don't be scared to make mistakes, you can fix it with the pen, you don't need to erase it! The outcome will be perfect!

Life will be a straight line if you learn to let the pen go on the paper and let go of fear.. And it will be broken and shaky if you try to control it and be scared of the next dot on your way..

Let your heart draw the line, you will have a beautiful painting in the end.

Good night
