minding my own business

therapy poster by Michael Bernard Loggins, Canon 300D

My friend Michael Bernard Loggins created a series of posters in collaboration with Harrell Fletcher a few years ago. This is one of my favorites.

On the subject of the fierce energy we discussed this week, I thought of Michael and what he does on days like this. He makes a sign and posts it up on his desk. It says, “I’m minding my own business today” and he refuses to talk to anyone. He then gets out his Sharpie and writes and writes and writes.

Sometimes he makes lists of all of his fears. You can view them here.

On a completely different note, I found this handy guide where you can choose the safest fish to eat. It seems all of the fish I have been enjoying lately are chock full of mercury and overfished to oblivion. Very scary.

Hi, I’m Andrea

On this blog you’ll be learning with me how to use our voices, share our creative superpowers and live life in full color.

As an artist, photographer, life coach + mentor, I’m redefining what it means to be a SUPERHERO — ‘cause in my world, it’s got nothing to do with capes, spandex or sidekicks and everything to do with tenderness, intuition & baby steps of bravery.

    and another reason not to eat the no fishes is that many of them are over-farmed.

    thanks for that. I had no idea it was that bad. I stick to salmon and catfish.

    Oh, good fishy link, thank you! I’m happy to report that I can continue eating my crab and wild salmon. Yummy!
    Sadly, no more shrimp 🙁
