Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it. /Rumi [found via jen]

Dreaming of love.

Feeling very single today and contemplating the Rumi-quote above and this one;

Our relationships perfectly reflect our own inner process; they are wonderfully effective mirrors to help us see the next step of our own growth. /Shakti Gawain [via flaming renaissance]

    Aww, I love this! That bird looks like she has something on her mind but the kitty is my fav.

    I love doodling too. And those quotes - they’re wonderful. Thanks.

    Åh, jag köpte ju en Moleskin i somras - efter att ha läst om en du gjort (fast för att skicka iväg, tror jag), och nu blir jag sådär sjuuukt sugen på att börja greja med det jag tänkte göra då… Måste jobba undan några gamla “måste-surdegar”, och sen jäklar!

    (Och ju mer jag läser här, desto mer blir jag övertygad om att vi måste ta den där fikan snart…!)

    I love doodles. When I doodle ideas can just pour out of me, I need to do it more.

    My favorite her is your word bird. Very cute.

    I really enjoy doodling and love looking at other peoples’ doodles too. I often go back through my pages of doodles and decide that some are worth making proper drawings of. Great fun. Love the cat Hanna.
