refresh


Working on a Dutch website on the importance of taking short breaks on a high frequency ( mini-me-time) to keep your social mental-emotional state clear and fresh, this analogy came up.

Any water colour painter will know the importance of making sure you’ve got clear water in one jar.

The clear, fresh, transparent water is the carrier of the message you’ll add to it… the pigments you choose to add to it, in any shape you desire to form.
It is only, when you use clear fresh water, you’ll be able to preserve the lively light.
Which, for  those who don’t know this about this painting technique, is in a water colour painting not added by the painter… but is where the base, the paper, is still visible.

Not clearing your water on a high frequent regular basis will spoil the end result, so you do keep an constant eye on how clear your water is.

Replace ‘water’ with ‘energy’ and ‘water colour painting’ with ‘living’ and you know why I am such an advocate of regularly emptying a part of your system ( the energy-container) in an appropriate place (not over your canvas, nor somebody else’s) and get a refill of fresh clear energy.

It goes equally as quickly as emptying a jar of trouble water in the sink, opening the tap, washing the jar and filling it with clear water, before returning to you canvas.

You may think:" But I don't like working with clarity...!"
"Maybe I am living my life more like an oil painting artist... !? They don't use clear water as a carrier. They don't need transparancy on every layer to preserve the surface of the canvas in places, leaving parts untouched .. !They simply add the touches of light at the end."
Well, in real life painting you may have a choice on which techniques appeal most to you and when you master the skills, end up with satisfying results.
In this case here, I would say, that unless you are a car or another industrial machine, who get's a regular refill on oil (product) to run smoothly, who's systems short circuit and break down when water gets poored into it........
If you happen to be a living human being..... .you are more than 80% water, in every single cell of your body.
You do not end up with satisfying results, being troubled.
Refresh your content, at the 'tap of life'...... clear water, clear energy.
