#REVERB12 (Day 25)
PROMPT: How will you be vulnerable?
MERRY CHRISTMAS dear pilgrims! Today is
the day that Christians celebrate the birth of the GOD-CHILD, baby Jesus, who is both GOD and a newborn HUMAN!
Just think how VULNERABLE this GOD-CHILD is! We all share this VULNERABILITY because of this clashing
duality of SPIRIT (GOD)and BODY (HUMAN).
In answer to today’s #Reverb12 prompt,
I will proclaim that as a SPIRITUAL ART
PILGRIM, I am already fiercely VULNERABLE.
I explore my LIFE, going into the MYSTERY, often feeling confused,
falling, bumping and scrapping my knees (literally and metaphorically),
recovering, discovering, and making ART
to document this courageous JOURNEY.
ARTMAKING is a bold way to maintain an open door to VULNERABILITY. Underlying this
proclamation of VULNERABILITY is
that being open and susceptible to harm is a valuable behavior. Is it?
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL! Thank you one and all for stopping here with me on this special HOLY DAY. How are you managing your SPIRIT and HUMAN duality? And your vulnerability? SOUL BLOG with Hallelujah!
As always, thanks to Kat at "I Saw
You Dancing," for managing #REVERB12.
I second that opinion that our artmaking=vulnerability. It seems a necessary ingredient to making passionate art. Approaching a work of art without a set plan and letting it take us where it will is the definition of vulnerability
ReplyDeleteand great art. In the process of creating, I constantly have to curb my tendency to pretty it up,
or make the piece lighter or artistically acceptable. Pretty can be good, but only when the artwork leads us there.
