Sketching

Hi there my lovelies! Hope you guys are doing well and staying safe. I am coming to you after a long sabbatical. I had to take a hiatus from the technology to take care of myself. One thing that I have learned from my past experience is to listen to my body. Few months ago, I was diagnosed with PTSD on top of generalized anxiety. I sought help, but what I quickly found out that I needed to address this my own way. It is when I reconnected with my passion for sketching.

I loved sketching and drawing since I can remember. I am no genius artist, but my sketch has allowed me to reach the state of peace mentally. My passion for sketching took to the next step mentally that mindfulness-based meditation and spiritual practice alone couldn’t do. Sketching has become another piece of the puzzle of life and sanity for me.

My dear lovelies! This has not been the first time I have decided to sketch. I have been sketching for a long time. However, this is the first time in my life, when sketching took a new meaning. It took me to a safe and unadulterated place of my childhood, which is free, happy, and not worried about the outside world. Thing that words could not explained was easily achieved by lines.

Freedom from Sketching:

As I have grown into the world of adulthood, I started focusing more and more on the art of words. However, with the re-introduction of sketching, I found the freedom to go beyond any constraints and barriers and explore the endless possibilities that is not bound by the rule of staying within the line. Sketching allowed me to be free: free from any constraints of staying inside the line, free to let my right brain to roam free, and free to be just me.

My beautiful lovelies! Today I end with a simple question: What is your vehicle to mental freedom? Please share in the comment below so that we all can benefit of learning about the plethora of vehicle to mental nirvana.

CAUSES CLOSE TO MY HEART

PLEASE DONATE DIRECTLY TO THE ORGANIZATIONS THROUGH MY FUNDRAISING LINKS:

I consider myself fortunate to have good health, a full-time job, and a roof over my head. However, there are still so many people who are struggling to put food on their tables. Please join me to help those who are struggling. If you have good health, full-time jobs, and a roof over your head, please join me to help those who are struggling. Whether you donate $5 or $500, you will make a huge difference in someone’s life.

No Kid Hungry:

America’s kids need us. The coronavirus is closing schools nationwide, and millions of vulnerable children are losing the school meals they depend on. For some, it’s the only food they’ll receive on a given day. We have a plan to feed kids, but we need your help today to continue our work to ensure every kid gets three meals a day. You can click above to donate to my gofundme page donation going directly to the organization, or you can click on the direct link to the site.

Food Bank of Maryland:

PLEASE DONATION ANY AMOUNT YOU CAN AND SHARE THE POST WITH EVERYONE YOU KNOW.

Manna Food Center, a nonprofit organization, strives to eliminate hunger in Montgomery County through food distribution, education, and advocacy. Millions of children go to bed hungry in America every year, sadly it’s worse now! Today, 14 million children regularly miss meals — three times more than during the Great Recession and five times more than before the pandemic.

Many parents have lost their job during the pandemic. Sadly, that shows no sign of stopping. Your donation can bring relief to the millions worried about where their next meal will come from. It’s even worse for Latino and Black families, whose rates of nutrition insecurity have spiked to 25% and 30%. In the world’s wealthiest country, this is unconscionable.

Even before the pandemic, the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimated 37 million people in America struggled with hunger and nutrition. The Centers for Disease Control reports 76% of people killed by COVID-19 had at least one underlying condition, most of which were diet-related. Diet-related diseases also fuel skyrocketing health care costs, which rose from 5% to 28% of the federal budget in the past 50 years.

Let’s make the world better, kinder, brighter. Every dollar you give will create real change. $1 will feed 5 hungry children here in the US, but $1,000 will feed 50,000 starving children overseas. Be the good in the lives of many by giving right now.
