I didn’t plan for this twisted path the turn a corner, but sometimes a doodle takes on a mind of its own.

15 minutes of itty-bitty shapes made with a Pigma Micron 005 marker.
Maybe 2 inches done.
This is the path of the mindful artist. Just keep at it, and when you stand back, something new has appeared.

The intentionally imperfect mandala grows. Part of me cringes at how it diverges from symmetry, and part of me delights in it.

I think this is a useful exercise. A concrete practice of noticing what’s good, even while acknowledging what’s lacking or disappointing.

After all, if you can get comfortable with this practice, and hone the skill of finding the good, you’ve pretty much mastered LIFE! ?
