Pottery Jackrabbits, Playing

https://feriadelavivienda.co/iy7770el7wv If you stuff yourself full of poems, essays, plays, stories, novels, films, comic strips, magazines, music, you automatically explode every morning like Old Faithful. I have never had a dry spell in my life, mainly because I fill myself so well, to the point of bursting. I wake up early and hear my morning voices leaping around like jumping beans. I get out of bed to trap them before they escape.
~ Ray Bradbury

I love the set of music-making, playful pottery jackrabbits.

https://nycfoodguy.com/2024/01/31/8zcza67jp I imagine them jumping around, creating joyful notes, all improvisation, unpredictable and original. I even hear a  stream of hoppy, happy notes.

follow site I also love the idea of Ray Bradbury joyfully filling himself with words and music, comedy and rhythm, until he is bursting. He is so full that he wakes early each morning, ready to capture the leaping thoughts and joyful words. What an image — the power of play, so inspiring that it fills the creative well.

Dangers Of Buying Ambien Online I love this set of music-making jackrabbits, pottery critters that I found at a folk art market in Southern Arizona. These funny little critters make me laugh. I imagine them jumping around, creating joyful notes, all improvisation, unpredictable and original. I imagine a stream of hoppy, happy notes filling the air.

PLAY offers questions/reflections for journal writing, art, and a call for action:

  • Consider these journal prompts: What wisdom do the jackrabbits offer? When is my work play? When is my play work?
  • How can I incorporate play in my life as a daily practice? Jot down a few ideas of play that requires no set-up, no special equipment, only a few minutes of time in between other activities.
  • While chalkboard chalk is becoming a thing of the past, sidewalk chalk is easy to find. What might you do with a box of colored chalk? The obvious — drawing pictures on sidewalks — is great fun, and since expectations are minimal, you can easily lose yourself in this expressive process. Add an uplifting message. Write a famous quote or a few lines from a favorite poem. Add an observation. The options are endless.

  1. https://ipaxcabinetsdirect.com/uncategorized/z7ziis4p Great photo. I love it, and the Bradbury quote – spot on.
    Strange as it may seem, I approach tax the same way as Bradbury. My brain is always hopping. I look to make things fun. My day starts with the comcs.

  2. https://feriadelavivienda.co/o92o6wrno6r Will you be my Life Coach and give me a kick in the pants to get me started?! Lordy, honey, you are one of the most compassionate, creative, amazing ladies! Desert Wisdom Cards, indeed! And yeah – those music making pottery jackrabbits are a scream – WANT!

  3. https://menteshexagonadas.com/2024/01/31/w0hll638dm I love this, Bo! I feel as if I just sat down with a deck of your Wisdom cards and drew this one for today. It’s perfect as I’ve been taking life and everything much too seriously lately. The photo is wonderful (and makes me smile), and I think I’d have that Bradbury quote tattooed on my arm where I could see it all the time if it wasn’t so long. lol!

  4. Ambien Mastercard Such a fun image. And I love the Watts quote. Perfect..and true!
