I have to come clean: I am a recovering overthinker. I think too much for as long as I can remember. It’s really helpful when I have to deal with a crisis: I tend to just unplug the emotional me and just run into thinking only mode. Really useful… but not so useful in an everyday life, when crisis almost never happen. When everything is so much lighter than they used to be.

Anyway, as I said, I am a recovering overthinker. And as I come from really far, I first had to acknoledge my emotions, to accept them, and to listen to them… First I had to accept to feel pain, and that crying was ok. Then came fear, anger, then hope, then pleasure in little things. I still have to discover a lot of feelings, a lot of emotions… I am waiting for them to appear, I am ready to recognise and to accept them. Because this is time for me to do so. I don’t have to protect, to fight and to be the strong one anymore…  I can allow myself to just…. feel.

So to celebrate my coming back into being a human being and not a robot anymore, here is this week challenge:

---

• quote: « Sometimes you have to stop thinking so much and just go where your heart takes you. »
• pattern: heartvine

---

 

Here are the rules:

• Each thursday, I’ll give you a quote and a pattern to play with. You can use both, you can use only one of them, it’s up to you.
• You have till the next wednesday to make your card and share it with us in the facebook group (just ask to be added, and I will open the doors wide open to you )
• The goal of this chalenge it just to offer yourself a time to have fun with pens and cards, to ponder on words, to enjoy a ME time. We tend to forget about ourselves so easily! And sharing is such a beautiful thing to experiment in our life!

 

And my card:
