Feeding Hearts: My Journey with Strays
Helping strays, spending time with them – even just couple of minutes is one of my favorite creative hobbies. I love feeding them, raising funds for them or getting them vaccinated or treated. Any every time someone contributes it feels like a small victory for kindness. This is one form of a creative hobby: spending time with the ones that you love – strays!
What I love the most is how strays respond – that slow tail wag, cute head tilt…that’s pure magic. Strays don’t speak – they thank you in one of the most special ways. Strays teach you that love doesn’t need words – just presence. They teach you empathy and patience yet remind you that slowing down isn’t a luxury but a necessity.
If you have ever felt the need to help; but didn’t know where to start, start small. One stray, one meal, one act of kindness. Try it, experience the beauty of this creative hobby and share your thoughts with me!
Canvas Conversations: My Creative Hobby
What better way to unwind than just hold the brush and paint your thoughts in color rather than words? Well, painting feels like meditation lost in chaos. You get lost in the strokes, the blending of colors, the layering and the wonderful creation.
Painting teaches you to trust the process, embrace the unexpected and celebrate the imperfect! Creative hobbies like Tanjore painting deal with the chalk powder, gold foil & the Arabic gum. Resin texture art deal with tissues & texture art deal with texture paste. Mandala art deals with geometric figures – every painting session feels like a small adventure.
It feels like a meditation in disguise – a creative hobby that teaches patience and to trust the process. Try to experience it and tell me what your canvas said back!
