A Heart A Day – Major Catch Up – Part Two

Posted on September 15, 2016 by Tessie O'Steel

Hello there!

Another catch-up. I’m getting there! One heart I made, as a reminder to act if you want to achieve your goals. I made it beautiful and dreamy, so that it’s a kind note to self ;-)
Last week I was in a creative mood and took inspiration from the materials used.
This week, pages were the triggers of my fantasy, and origami crane birds.

Here are 9 new catch-up hearts! How are your hearts getting along?

With love,

Tess
PS: Have you created or spotted a heart this week? Share it with me! Use #aheartaday and social media may overflow with hearts…

[I love love and I love hearts! But oh, this world needs more visible love. So let’s change that, step by step. Away with pessimism. Away with hate. Let’s fill this world with love. And hearts! To show compassion towards each other, towards the planet, towards ourselves. It proves to be difficult for so many of us. But instead of judging it’s more meaningful to show love, to respond with love, to act out of love. Say it with hearts.
So I’m sharing A Heart A Day. Every day I will draw, stitch, paint or otherwise create a heart and post it on this blog. Will you help me make love and hearts spread like a contagious but healthy disease?]

A Heart A Day #23

Posted on August 19, 2016 by Tessie O'Steel

Two hearts connecting. I’m trying to connect from the heart. With everyone. And foremost with myself. Listening to my own heart, doing what feels right for me. And not ignoring that. It’s a challenge – I learn to accept that some days are off-days, also when it comes to heart-connection – but a good one. It’s also totally in tune with my self-compassion journey and my heart-a-day challenge!

Today’s heart is actually a gift I drew for someone. A gift for the receiver to colour in, to make it into a unique and personal drawing. In my experience colouring makes the mind calm, so in a way it’s a mutiple-purpose present ;-)

With love,

Tess
PS: Heart 24 comes on day 25 as I’ll be on a festival tomorrow…

A Heart A Day #22

Posted on August 18, 2016 by Tessie O'Steel

Today’s heart from me to you is a cheesy one. In light of tonight’s full moon I cut a little heart out of cheese. As children’s stories say the moon is made out of cheese, it seemed logical. For the background I used a photo of the moon in its fullest glory. And they match well together, moon and cheese! What if those children’s stories are true…?

With love,

Tess

A Heart A Day #21

Posted on August 17, 2016 by Tessie O'Steel

Day 21, three weeks and counting!

Compassion, compassion, it’s a difficult one. Today the weather was Summery. I wore a short skirt and went to the park. And I got whistled at and checked out by a guy. Not my type. And I felt like I could explode! Couldn’t he mind his own fucking business?! Other women may recognise this ;-)

And then I inhaled deeply. Exhaled and thought “compassion, that’s my goal, compassion”. I didn’t even have to analyse the why’s of this guy! I left it there and continued my walk, then found a nice spot in the sun and had a very relaxed afternoon enjoying the warm sunshine. No frustration, no anger. Just enjoying and relaxation.

It takes some practise and I won’t be faultless after today, but boy oh boy, to just let it be and not let negativity take over. JOY!

And whilst enjoying the sun I created today’s heart from little gem stones I found earlier today when I was clearing out my study. They’re old, as in childhood-memory-old! And so useful today.

With love,

Tess

A Heart A Day #19 AND #20

Posted on August 16, 2016 by Tessie O'Steel

Oh yes, you caught me there! I missed day #19… The heart was ready, but I just didn’t find a moment to post. But that’s okay. I’m compassionate towards myself ;-) And today you’ll get two hearts from me instead. How lucky do you feel now?

Yesterday’s heart I created on a party last Saturday with the help of a friend. Shadow and light and the famous hand-made heart on a rough old factory wall. The lights create two shadows, two hearts. They look so bold!
The heart for day #20 I made from a game for children. Totally different than yesterday’s heart, but I think it’s pretty colourful and cool, too.

How is your heart doing today? Are your actions and thoughts slowly growing more compassionate? Towards yourself and others?

With love,

Tess

A Heart A Day #18

Posted on August 14, 2016 by Tessie O'Steel

 

Late night bloggin’. I created a heart earlier this day, but didn’t find the time to post it. But here we are.

The third quote-heart, another of my favourite quotes. Anne Frank. How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world. I don’t expect I’ll solve all wars in the world and find THE answer to world-peace (although I sometimes dream I do, but always wake up having lost the clue of that dream), but this phrase from the extraordinary Anne Frank always gets to me. I put it on my inspiration wall. It motivates me to follow my heart, to do my bit for the world no matter how small it may seem. It even motivated me to finally go ahead and start this little heart-project!
And I say extraordinary Anne Frank, because it simply is so. All those wise words she’s written, at such a young age. It blows my mind, time and time again.

Today’s heart from me to you I drew myself, then mixed in a picture of Anne Frank and added some dried flowers from my collection (indeed, I have a collection…). I hope this quote and heart will reach you, inspire you. Know that even the smallest gesture, the tiniest act of kindness, can make a difference for someone. So why not go on and do it?

With love,
Tess

A Heart A Day #17

Posted on August 13, 2016 by Tessie O'Steel

Good day!

I’ll keep it short. Just promise me this: SMILE TODAY! It’s good, it’s fun, it’s healthy and…it’s contagious!

Today’s heart from me to you exists of one of my favourite quotes; Smile! It confuses people. Because it does, really. Ever smiled to a total stranger or had a total stranger smile at you? Things like that make my day. The sudden connection and kindness. It’s beautiful! I drew a heart and mixed in a picture of…… my mouth. Laughing out loud. Oh yes, that’s my smile.

Now go and smile until it hurts!

With love,
Tess
