Eternity

So this time, a lot of our friends and siblings are asking me to create a mandala for them. I feel so honored but at the same time, I notice how my ego wades its way to my mind. I found myself worrying what if they won't like what I make for them. Again, the secret is to just be.

As I was making this mandala, I was so attached to making this one beautiful though I really don't know for whom this mandala is. I kept on reminding that no pressure about a certain result because every mandala is as beautiful as it is.

I tried circles in my work and dots outside the circle. I let my hand guide me through the colors but I ended up with blue and purple, red and white. When I finished this mandala, I could not understand my emotions. I kinda like it but for some reasons, I couldn't connect to its colors but I resolve to accept it despite its color combination.

As I posted the photo of my mandala on Facebook, I noticed how my friends expressed their appreciation on this work. It's quite popular among my friends. I concluded that one's perception really varies depending on what one wants to see. Apparently, my unlikely favorite became noticeable with other people.

By the time when I saw my youngest brother Jayme in our house, I knew that this mandala is for him. I am just glad.
