As I am sitting at my workplace, seeing the trees letting go of
\ntheir leafs for a long while, i would like to write words of wisdom
\nthat would give people inspiration and courage.
\nBut right now everything is going on on the inside, letting the
\noutside quiet. There is only silence left to fill the emptiness –
\nof what is in fact not empty and silent at all. <\/p>\n

* Words of wisdom *<\/b>
\n‘We must remember that everything is ordinary and extraordinary.
\nIt is our mind that open or close’
\nQuote took from Natalie Goldberg – ‘Writing Down the Bones’ <\/p>\n
* What is new, what is old, what have i done to get here * <\/b>
\nI could resume the last months into a simple sentence,
\nlots and lots of thinking and re-thinking! <\/p>\n
Thinking of what I have done in the last years, where am i at, and
\nof course, what am i gonna do next. Sitting here today i still don’t
\nreally know what I am gonna do next. I realize more and more that
\ni cant stand the idea of doing just one kind of job at a time, i need
\nto mix my occupations, so i don’t get bored and I can keep my
\ncreativity running. <\/p>\n
I guess I will continue doing what I did over the last months –
\ndrawing and painting a lot, bring to life projects that are on my mind,
\ndoing personal and commercial projects on the web, looking for
\nfulfilling work, travelling – and looking for new ways to expand &
\nexpress myself. (Signing and dance lessons are on the way, if i can
\njust unfreeze myself and do it!) <\/p>\n
With so many things on my mind, i had the urge to calm down, and
\nchange my environment often so i could change my focus and RELAX a bit! <\/p>\n
I did small trips around Germany, and finally managed to do
\na week trip alone in Holland. It was absolutely scary and totally
\nfantastic! Travelling alone is quite a challenge, but it is also magic.
\nI wish to travel even more in the next years to discover new countries,
\nnew people, new cultures, new energies, and myself. Travelling alone
\nbring you closer to yourself, you and you. It makes me feel alive. <\/p>\n
* An overview of my recent projects *<\/b>
\n* Live out loud! *
\nLive out loud products, featuring ‘travelling dreamer in Paris’,
\none of my latest illustration. <\/p>\n
“Everyone has a dream.
\nWe need your ideas, we need your art
\n– should it be writing, dancing, cooking, painting, signing –
\nwe need your imagination, actions, solutions.
\nIf you have a dream, begin now!”
\nMouse pad, T-shirt, mug, lunch box, caps and tote bag
\nare available online, with 6 of my illustrations that are also
\navailable for purchase as high quality copies. <\/p>\n

So, that’s it for now. I would have so much more to write but
\nthis would never end.
\nI will be in Montreal in December, to celebrate Xmas and new
\nyear with friends & family that i missed a lot in the last months.
\nIf you live around there, its a good time to save the shipping
\ncosts on my illustrations. I will take some copies with me
\nbut better pre-order them before mid-December. <\/p>\n
I wish all of you, after reading such a long mail, to go away
\nfrom your computer and get something nice for yourself,
\nyou deserve it!
\n* get a good book and read outside or in a nice coffee
\n* some chocolate cookies
\n* a nap with your cat <\/p>\n
I wish you lots of nice, quiet time outside in nature, followed
\nby warm baths with lots of bubbles, <\/p>\n
happy fall,
