ILLUSTRATOR SAYS:

The aim of my project: to provide a comfort blanket for my soul and the soul of others.

Day 25 image:

I’ve decided to expand my ‘human’ experience. To not see my life through a lens of relationships, who I do and don’t have around me. But that my human interactions are just a small part of my overall experience. To experience a fully expanded life, to include trees, birds, my slipper socks with holes in, my morning cup of tea in the garden, the feeling of a warm breeze in my hair riding my bike, washing the dishes with a podcast on, my cat purring, a good book, the grandfather clock ticking…

I hear my neighbour having friends round for drinks and for a moment I think ‘should I be with people?’.

Then I remember, when I’m not around other people…I’m never alone.

In fact…when I’m not around people…I’ve never felt less alone.

Background to The 100 Day Project:

This is a project led by Lindsay Jean Thomson who is a writer and co-founder of Women Catalysts. In 2016, she was diagnosed with breast cancer, a bizarre yet life-affirming experience she chronicled for VICE.

I’d love to get your support and encouragement over the next few months if you’d like to comment and share.

Hope anything I create gives you a little bit of comfort for your soul.
