2020 Vision | Walking Meditation

Yesterday was a tough day.

Mums Dementia played havoc for both of us.

I did manage a quick Portrait of her before it all kicked off and drove me mad with exhaustion.

I had no opportunity to leave the house yesterday to go for my one hour walk.

So I created images of Clouds which was ok.

At the very least, I was happy with creating an image.

Today, I felt confident going out for my walk.

I headed straight to Oxford Circus and created a few images of the empty streets.

I will write about that in my next Journal entry.

Creating this image made up for yesterday.

I love Water and being near it.

Creating images of Water and Waterfalls is exciting to me.

The finished effect of smooth flowing Water is magical with slow shutter speeds.

This appeals to my vision and expression.

I love the raw energy of it and also the aggressive power of a full on Waterfall.

This calmed me down and I felt peace.

The Elephants provided a respite of humour.

As I type this Journal entry, I am present to the contrast of my life.

Being a Carer for Mum is tough on every aspect of my heart, spirit, psyche and joy.

Some days, I just cannot think straight. 😡

I am learning with every moment to embrace equanimity, peace and solace.

If I can go to bed at night feeling some level of peace, this is a good moment to end my day.

Her well being is all that matters.

Thanks for reading.
