Monika's weekly inner voice drawings:
Q: What is today's wisdom?
A: "If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude."
- Maya Angelou
"The trick is what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same."
- Carlos Castaneda

One thing I like about IVD is how it draws out one’s intentionality. Intention, from the Latin, intendere, means “to stretch.” What better way to stretch one’s inner knowledge, or voice than with the free flow of drawing— in IVD, we literally “draw out” our intention. Intention is such a key mental factor because it is tied to our very desire, passion, and motivation, and so, is innately creative. This, Monika’s drawing today, has that round, healing quality, the kind that is engendered in music and dance, both of which I experience here. I also experience a healing of the split between roots and wings; how, in order to take flight like a bird, we need to be properly rooted in wisdom and empathy so as to include all beings in our flight towards freedom.
