this is a piece of a mixed media necklace I made recently
That is the thing I guess I always have in the back of my mind...measuring up. How about you? Even though I say it doesn't matter, I find myself measuring and comparing myself to others all the time, and I am trying and working to release myself from this thought. I think it is self destructive, and as I speak out loud now I am reminding myself to go back to my motto this year, and that is to try my best. That, I know I am doing. I am curious to know how everyone else handles the self criticism and self induced guilt...or are you free of this, and how do you do it?!!! I am trying.
Believe me when I say I did not stage these two photos! This is my workmat, and I am winding down what has been a feverish pitch of working these past few days getting ready for a showing. Phew!
Thanks for stopping by, and sharing your comments, stories, and friendship!

Nice work and fine idea:)
Love these random shots.
Just keep creating from the heart and the rest doesn't matter!
Sending hugs Sharon,

Hi Sharon! Nice to hear about you! I´m not the best blogger/commentator either...
Your jewelleries are always so beautiful and creative!
And I have to told you, that my younger daughter just started her studies to become a silversmith.
Have a lovely week!
Hugs

Definitely not free of that. I guess the only thing we can do is trying...And that worktable - could be mine:-)
Love your worktable pics. The measuring up stuff is always worth fighting off.Remember they are only thoughts and if you tell them to buzz off they don't feel as welcome and after awhile they will find another place to go. But oh, the agony when they come.
you are so unique and special, no one can comare... :D
I don't think it's bad to compare yourself to others as that can be a good way to grow, as long as it doesn't go too far and work the opposite.
Your bead table looks a lot like mine. I see some pretty stuff there! Good luck on your showing!
Just let your work be true to itself. There is only one you!

Dearest Sharon,
me --I try ,too- not being that good at it alwayes, but getting older and better !
And you sweet friend, are so true to yourself and your special creations,-you don`t need to compare or meassure
as you can beautifully stand on your own, and be so proud of what you create,------ but I know it is difficult not to think those thoughts now and then!
I had to click your photoes bigger to see it all ,:-) looks wonderful filled with great materials -and the first photo, so exiting ...is it going to the show? I wish you much luck, my dear!
Love and hugs,Dorthe
Hello Sharon,
Great to see what you are working on! All those goodies! And your Measuring Up necklace (?) looks fab from the little peek we got.
I think we all compare ourselves, even if we don't realize it.
We only need to be good enough for our own selves...for our own true Self. That's it. Period. (and I need to remind myself of this regularly lol!)
Keep on expressing yourself : )
Hugs,
Terri
