<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I told the big old story of how I made it - all by hand, <a href="http://kayellewelyn.blogspot.ch/2014/11/on-making-book_11.html" target="_blank">here</a>. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I was interviewed by <a href="http://thewoolf.org/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Woolf<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Magazine here.</span></span></a> </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Now - to think that it's available to be ordered from anywhere makes me break into a smile. That means <b>we can send random acts of kindness, synchronicities and serendipities all over the world! </b></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Check it out on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/pocket-money-about-random-kindness/dp/3952443913/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1449178293&sr=8-1&keywords=kaye+llewelyn+pocket+money" target="_blank">Amazon</a> or find it wherever you like to get books. </span></span><br />

</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I flew back into Australia in March to spend more than
a month, just me. Wow, it happened. Not long before I’d declared my core
desired feelings. One of them was to feel - <b>free</b>. And there I was – thank you!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Free to leave my kids at home. Free to be there in
real time with my siblings to deal the best way I could with ‘family business’ that
had come up, I also wanted to take the opportunity to share my new role as

<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">But you know that feeling of going back to family, the
house you grew up in, the old home town, it’s lovely, it’s comforting but oops
it’s slippery. Operative words ‘the old’, suddenly you’re right back there, in
the past, and things get sticky. </span></div>

sitting with my dear friend and co-facilitator <a href="https://www.facebook.com/illuminareglobalcoach?fref=ts" target="_blank">Sylvia </a>out came another book and
set of tools. NOOO, I thought I’m not starting anything else, no sidetracking, no nothing

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">ps. I just came across an analogy of how tiring time
in a museum can be and how since life is continually expanding, being around
artifacts from the past is simply being around a more contracted energy. Just
like back home and all the old stuff, it can bring you back to the older more
contracted you. Ugh tight. But immersing yourself in appreciation (like the
historians do) can make it a complete joy. I hope you find that place next time
you go back home.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I was so stumped this day. Frustrated, overloaded, confused, mess,
papers, notes everywhere, overwhelmed. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">From somewhere a small voice said
- just draw. <b>Draw it out</b>. I swiped the table clear. Grabbed notebook +
pencil and doodled. Three little circles and a big straight line . . .
then out came this guy.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-0PMnNx70Q1c7NxWbxDZhUd5iWkr81h8_j4V3E3-1M8JOtD8eiwjsMiSK7wGjAY5JWzQxr6CP7ewogij6IEovbXf0vw4KiKE9Xpb-zZB9ucec2VTxf5FjOVs_Dyqct7_Bv-ODwuRbHBg/s1600/whale_NEW.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-0PMnNx70Q1c7NxWbxDZhUd5iWkr81h8_j4V3E3-1M8JOtD8eiwjsMiSK7wGjAY5JWzQxr6CP7ewogij6IEovbXf0vw4KiKE9Xpb-zZB9ucec2VTxf5FjOVs_Dyqct7_Bv-ODwuRbHBg/s1600/whale_NEW.jpg" width="242" /></a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A whale, the biggest thing, a lot of darkness and an impossibility. That's exactly how I felt. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Drawing it out felt good, I could see it, I could even smile, again. I could see I was taking in and in more information, more options, more ideas and not letting any out. I felt all blown up, like a scuba diver with her weight belt on and life vest fully inflated. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Funny along came my man, saw it, and said 'she needs to let a little more air out that spout'. Yeah. But not holding on to it all and letting it out was scary. I didn't know what would happen. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglJfj5HKazfeQTa08duixnSK8LXN49XsY781ziPgQSa2x8tmdW4FliyhTw8HiVKOYEku6HnL3Wa_ZiQND0O-_TUaosmh4ZBi0y1DFoKjoo5uDiccSS6G4tGf8DI89ufS-aLCVOcBZix6Y/s1600/sole_NEW.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglJfj5HKazfeQTa08duixnSK8LXN49XsY781ziPgQSa2x8tmdW4FliyhTw8HiVKOYEku6HnL3Wa_ZiQND0O-_TUaosmh4ZBi0y1DFoKjoo5uDiccSS6G4tGf8DI89ufS-aLCVOcBZix6Y/s1600/sole_NEW.jpg" width="240" /></a></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It all went out, oops. . . flat, like a sole on the floor. Blink.</span> Nothing.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Now what? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">. . .Ok breathe, just only what you need </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">What's the first thing . . .</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">So keeping your head above water, and diving. You can't do both at the same time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">You gotta let go.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Thanks to some scribbles, I found my way on. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Free - to change :)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>What's your best way to check in with how you're feeling? </b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">And then to ask<b><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>How do I want to feel. . . now? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">I’ve been now three years living in Switzerland. I’ve met a lot of
international people and yes, it really takes that long, to land. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">So I finished a project! Something I’d promised to myself. It really helped
with all the *landing*. <b><i>If you’ve got questions – start a project. If you want
to find the answers – finish it</i></b>! that's what I say.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Anyway that’s how it felt for me. It is a
book, a picture book – I made it, all of it, by hand. It’s called <b>Pocket money;
it’s about random acts of kindness, synchronicity and serendipity.</b> And there
are a couple of the limited edition of 42 left. If you want one – <a href="mailto:kaye.llewelyn@gmail.com" target="_blank">email me</a>.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><a href="http://kayellewelyn.blogspot.ch/2014/11/on-making-book_11.html" target="_blank">I wrote the epic blog post about it. </a>Turns out that was my 100<sup>th</sup>
blog post! It had me looking over where I’d started on this adventure
and what this <a href="http://kayellewelyn.blogspot.ch/p/embolded.html" target="_blank">emBOLDed</a> thing all meant.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Then in that moment of stillness, that comes after *finished*, dropped the
next serendipity. The perfect container for my work of helping others going
through big changes, dreaming up projects, and getting them done.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">It’s a heart centred approach to driving your life, but mostly <b>it’s all
about designing a life that feels good!</b> There will be workshops, there will be
private sessions, ok and there will probably be coloured pencils. Cue drum
roll: I am now a <a href="http://kayellewelyn.blogspot.ch/p/desire-mapping.html" target="_blank">Licensee and Facilitator of *The Desire Map*!!</a></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Let’s be a part of a movement that starts from our hearts.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Arial Narrow"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">I’m refreshing my list. I’ll be sharing what’s on my mind, what’s in my
heart and sometimes the *bold beings* that cross my path. I’ll keep it short
and occasional. </span></div>

<br />
When I finished making my book (yep by hand!) the question I was asked most often was 'wow, how long did it take you'? After a kind of head tilting aaahh. . . like that explains, um what? the sightings at the railway station? the missed dates, phone calls, German classes? that paint on your fingers?<br />
<br />
So I gathered up my instagrams for a <b>behind the scenes story</b><br />
or it could even be the recap of a year<br />
or all of my time here. . .<br />
<br />
oh, so<br />
where does it begin?<br />
<br />
. . . I think I need a cuppa tea<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
It took a lot of tea<br />
and lots of different 'takes'<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<b>But where it really began was <span style="font-size: large;">a desire</span></b> </h4>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>to make a kids book </b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You know the kind that still work when you're older.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Like these . . . (I'm gonna make a list of my favourites - I hope you help me add to it)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
It took a while from that first out-loud-admission.<br />
I fully wrote and drafted two other books, I did short courses and had a wonderful writing circle full of encouragement back in Australia before this book came, in the end - that had no words.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
ok more tea and plenty of getting sidetracked on the computer didn't make it any faster.<br />
<br />
Then one day these guys turned up, with raised eyebrows. . . 'so what's going on???" <br />

Funny questions came up, like, 'what are they going to wear'?<br />
Then I found old sewing patterns my sister had sent me, from my mum's bottom draw<br />
and I made them some clothes. . .<br />

Scanned and formatted and pdf'd, it then was all in one tiny memory stick and <br />
Off to the <a href="http://zindeldruck.ch/" target="_blank">printers</a> =<br />
one big box of solid paper<br />

Then it all left my dining room table and took the train, into the city and off to work - at the <a href="http://www.b-b-l.ch/info.html" target="_blank">Buchbekleidung</a> (book-clother) - <b>a book binder in Zurich on the river Limmat</b>. An amazing place, I'd stumbled upon one day on my bike almost two years ago, exploring the back streets of Zurich, floor to ceiling books and paper and material and old book binding machinery. That day I made a promise, I'd be back to make something here! And here I was. A whole new world had started, with the whole first day - folding. <br />

Monotonous sometimes, but never a dull moment. Always someone coming in the door with a cool project and always Christa getting them involved. Even my kids surprised me one school-free day and next minute she had them making books. They went home with five notebooks, hand sewn ;)<br />

more cutting, gluing, sticking and <br />

<br />
did I mention the machines? The huge guillotine, the old presses and our favourite the cutting machine that can shave off one rainbow millimetre of a whole stack of books! <br />
And the days and days (and nights) it all took? Oh and the mistakes? argh! the drop in the belly at 9pm when you think you've really really finished after the three other days when you thought you'd really be finished? <b>That's the time you need a working buddy</b> (<a href="http://rowinggirl.com/about/" target="_blank">Lib</a>) who knows what's going on, for those *sigh* exasperated texts or *grr's*, who's been there, who understands the tangles.

I lost my earlier mutual mentoring buddy to the international-life-and-going-back-home story :/<br />
I miss the tea and the excursions to the city, but it still works on skype.<br />
<b>I so value this friendship of co encouragement</b> that now I'm putting
dates all through my week, like my great
walk-together-speak-in-German-friend, and my

Here was a window when we (that's me and the book) went out to play - we were invited to the<br />
<a href="http://www.waldgut.ch/e70/e5357/" target="_blank">12. Frauenfelder Buch und Druckkunst Messe</a> (that's <b>Art Book Fair</b>) It was amazing to see all the beautiful books and meet some of the makers. Totally inspired. But.<br />
It
felt a bit like holding your two year old's hand though and asking her
to tell that lovely story she came out with in the bath. Oh and remember
all this was in German! ha ha, and every time I missed another German
class in the 'making of' Christa would say 'You are learning more German
with me' (in German of course) and I was. I recommend it now - any
project or curiosity - for us in other countries - try it in another
language - Challenge on ;)<br />

So back in the workshop and hand doing the final touches, or the crazy bits = stamping letter by letter :/ thanks to <a href="http://maieriisli.blogspot.ch/" target="_blank">maya</a>
for the stamps. Just like it takes a village to raise a child it's all
the interwoven parts I love that make a project come alive.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">done!</span></b><br />

<b>This story is dedicated to my mother. </b>To those random odd conversations with strange Greek villagers, that made the teenage us cringe, but that brought invitations and sacks of fresh apricots to our feet. To the warmth and the boldness and the welcoming smile. And to the hand bag full of weird stuff that we used to scoff at, but that always produced the perfect answer, to help someone. <b> </b><br />

<a href="http://www.fraugerold.ch/" target="_blank">Frau Gerold's Garten</a> reminded me of her. A little bit of wildness in the Swiss city. I chose it for<br />
<b>The Launch</b>. It was another place I'd found in my Zurich wanderings. The <a href="http://www.powerhousecollective.com/" target="_blank">Powerhouse</a> girls sent me past there on my way their great meetings at the <a href="http://zurich.impacthub.net/" target="_blank">Viaduct</a>. In the summer it's all outside and renegade gardens in boxes but in winter it was even better. We snuggled into the wooden Stubli, fire burning, all decorated with knitting. ha. just like my mum's ;) We shared coffee and cakes and books and stories. <b>And I got to thank all the people that have made this new city, country, place, feel like home. </b><br />

My daughter just finished a project on bears so I've been seeing a lot of them this week. (Did you know that polar bears fur is hollow, it<span class="st"> traps air inside and makes the bear buoyant in water. ha ;). </span><br />
<br />
<span class="st">But it was when a friend told me I had an owl as a 'spirit animal' and I started thinking of other kinds. I thought, if you had a bear would you always have to be larger than life and strong? . . . Then I thought of the little guys that live in the wild place over the hill from me. When I first saw them, the three of them were rumbling around together and then one raced up the tree. Like the thinnest young tree and it just bent, <i>right</i> over. Mum was watching from the pond though and when it looked like breaking she leaned on out of the water and looked, hard. Instantly, baby came clumsily down. So I'm thinking 'no' and 'yes' both. </span><br />
<span class="st"><br /></span>
<span class="st">ps. I made an <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=648883705202228&set=a.219824051441531.50097.217056505051619&type=1&theater" target="_blank">owl</a> too. . .</span><br />
<br />
<span class="st">what kind of animal have you got walking with you? </span><br />

The others had theirs and the conversation turned. She slid sideways with her glass to refill. Down the hall, the door was ajar it beckoned her in. Respite from the chatter and clatter and din. In the darkness she felt, around her feet were strewn all manor of things. Hm, no one was watching, she tried one on. . .</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><b>Who am I</b> now
and what do I like, what do I want, what do I do?? These are the kind of questions that come
up a lot when you move to another country, lose a job, get to another age or
your kids do and you wonder what's next. Sure nothing stays the same. But all those questions had me
spiralling around in a bit of a whirlpool, till this week. I went to the
Kunsthaus Zurich.</span></span></div>

invite to see Cindy Sherman (<a href="http://mygirlfriendguide.com/zurich_beyond/cindy-sherman-the-ultimate-selfie">and
write about it</a>) and there were wigs! <a href="https://www.google.ch/search?q=cindy+sherman&client=firefox-a&hs=8C6&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=sb&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=zQ6cU5fuEKvb7AbojIDQAg&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAQ&biw=1173&bih=572">Sherman’s</a> famous for taking the ultimate
selfies. But they are none of them her and yet all of them are. There's aging doyennes, clowns, murder victims, fifties movie stars and old master's oil paintings. Critics call
social commentary, gender roles and confrontation, but she calls everything – ‘untitled’.
Make up your own stories. I was fascinated and went looking for the ‘real’ her
(on youtube). And yes she loves to dress up and to shock but what caught me was
her telling the story of the photo album she made as a child with every picture
of her circled and arrowed <b>‘this is me’.</b> </span></span></div>

got any of my old photo albums with me here, they’re all in a box, in a shed,
in the country, in Australia, but I remember them. Ok, we’ve all got (well us old
enough to) those mad hair eighties ones and I’ve got plenty bleached hair
surfie ones, I didn’t quite catch the dark arty ones but there’s the flat hat
graduating ones, not to mention the best dress for the party ones and the sunburned knee skinned kid ones.<b> We evolve.</b></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Back through
those earlier years almost all our parties were ‘fancy dress’ (read ‘costume’)
and you got to turn up as all kinds of characters. It was fun to try out
someone wildly opposite to your regular self and it was always fascinating to
see the alter egos emerge. There were dangers though, like the time I went with
a friend as <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4zAganvdlI" target="_blank">Neil andVivian</a> and she had to shout the whole time and I got so low I had to leave
and come back as someone else ;)</span></span></div>

everything was fun again and it didn’t matter what you chose, cause you could
do it all differently the next time.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">When I acknowledge</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">where I'm at</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">and appreciate the fact.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">When I am grateful</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">or find a way to be</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">no matter what.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">When I don't call myself</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">wrong or right</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">just now and next.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">When I choose</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">and know I can</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">in every moment.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">and when I am willing</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">to become the new</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">even when I've never</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">met it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">When I find a smile</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">even when it takes</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">a while</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">and when I remember</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I am so much more</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">than you</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">or even I</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">can see.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Be bold</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Be YOU.</span></div>

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">does your mind ever just get busy </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">and go round and round </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I had to say to mine - stop!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">And then I gave my pencil over</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">to the other hand.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">She took a deep breath</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">and went round and round</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">and she made me a new friend.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span></span><br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I'm making friends with the right side of my mind </span></span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I reckon she can lead the way much better than the left. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Whole-New-Mind-Right-Brainers-Future/dp/1594481717/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394123412&sr=1-3&keywords=dan+pink">Daniel Pink</a> thinks so too. I read <a href="http://www.shilohsophiagallery.com/Artist.asp?ArtistID=34742&Akey=D882GNT2">Shiloh Sophia</a> telling that she starts all her paintings with her other hand. And some of my most favourites are <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Gorgeous-Sense-Hope-Love-Fable/dp/0740760688/ref=la_B001IXTUW2_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1394124693&sr=1-2#reader_0740760688">all other hander's.</a> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Want to follow your big open knowing side? - <b>just give over to your left hand, (or of course your right if you are a lefty ;) and draw . . .</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Who comes to visit you?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I'd love to see . . .</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">(send me a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/emBOLDed">facebooky</a> ;)</span><br />

Juxtaposed with all these funky old stories revived were all the 'pretend old' toxic 'distressing' jeans, furniture and more - it was. Distressing. We want beyond the anonymous manufacturing, but we manufacture the beyond. Bring on the real soul in your stuff. </span></div>
