The Soul Never Ages

Mary Magdalene

I have been waking up with so many ideas, things that I want to do and try. It’s really nice to have the mind full of creative ideas again. I feel more like myself every day.

This has been the miracle of drawing Mary Magdalene.

All the time before 1-1-2025, I hardly wrote here or anywhere, because I felt empty of good ideas. I was fully using my mind for work, and not cultivating enough the things that nourish this part of me. I presume that there are some people out there who feel similarly. And I know how hard it is to get yourself back into the flow of grace.

I’m not fully there yet. There are so many things I need to still work on, develop or eliminate. And my plate is already so full. But I have faith that by being consistent and coherent, I will be able to make the transformation I seek.

One fruit I have gathered is trust in myself to do the work. And the work, for an artist, is everything.

March is almost here, and when it starts, I will seriously begin cultivating my next habits. For now, I have started them, like I did with the first 2 habits of writing and drawing, before the official start. With writing, I started just by writing on a diary a few months before starting to write on this blog. I was so out of practice, I thought I would never be able to get back to writing the way I used to. But I feel fully confident again. With drawing, I didn’t give it time, I just started.

I believe this process is bringing perspective into my life. It’s also opening some kind of aperture in my mind to let ideas flow. And passion is little by little returning. It thought I was getting too old! But it seems to be true that the soul never ages.
