Dimmed

Feeling a little dimmed.

I couldn't get this page to go in a direction I liked. There are so many layers, and each one I was dissatisfied with. Whatever I added didn't work for me. So I took a photo and turned it to black and white (it helps to see the balance). It needed more light around the flower/sparkler motif, but whatever I added didn't brighten it up. The paper just seemed to soak up whatever I added.

Then I realised that this is how I'm feeling at the moment - a little dimmed. I'm not feeling at my brightest. I'm tired. I know all the reasons why this should be so. So I take naps and take it easy and know that this season will pass.
