She knew after an especially long week the best thing to do was to have a good time.

@sargedunn1: If you can’t Laugh at Yourself, you give Others permission to do it for you.

@LaughItUp @umarnasir “It takes 10 people to change a light bulb because 9 of us are on Twitter” (1 to change, 9 to tweet about it)

@funnyoneliners: The only person who got all his work done by Friday was Robinson Crusoe.

@DiamondSharp: Bumper Sticker: “If space is a vacuum, who changes the bag?”

@comedybot: If there’s a will, prosperity can’t be far behind. -W. C. Fields

@fizzyduck: The Italian Govt is installing a clock in the Leaning Tower of Pisa. After all, what good is the inclination if you don’t have the time?

She liked the idea of striking a balance, but found she sometimes liked the tension that asymmetry created.   How about you?

The dragon became so tired of breathing fire and being feared, that he decided to breathe only flowers and love. Now that’s transformation!

light my fire

Light My Fire – © Sue O’Kieffe 2009

I was inspired to create this doodle after experiencing a really intense coaching session with the wonderful Laura Bly.

It feels so good to cast off all the negative energy that has clogged up the pores of my naturally positive self and throw it all in the funeral pyre. May the ashes be transformed to rise again just like the phoenix . Hot damn.

My own interpretation of this doodle is –  first the fire, then the rain to cool and relieve; sweet peace follows along with incredible growth.

(Unfortunately I can’t embed a music player on my blog to go along with this post. Wouldn’t that  be perfect to play Jim Morrison’s iconic song for Creative Every Day’s June theme of sound?)

2 B OR NOT 2 – © Sue O’Kieffe 2009

Hamlet’s famous soliloquy was the inspiration for this B. How can anyone stay in an existential funk with these happy summer colors?

But then, alas, I was reminded  of our be-loved honey bee and everything this buzzy worker does for our well being.

PLEASE HELP

THE BEE

I am glad to see corporate America getting  involved with green issues. Haagen-Dazs has lots of information on their site on how you can help save the bee. At the very least, you can buy some of their ice cream. How sweet is that?

COLORFUL CONVERSATION – © Sue O’Kieffe 2009

They speak from their hearts and honor each other’s differences. Sometimes they see eye to eye and sometimes they don’t. They are a part of each other’s life and they are separate from each other too.  When conflict arises, they know it is part of their growth to work through it and return to a place of balance with each other.

This is the conversation they have always wanted .

“ The Dipsy Doodle’s a thing to beware,

the Dipsy Doodle will get in your hair

and if it gets you it couldn’t be worse-

the things you say will come out in reverse,

like,You love I and me love you-

that’s the way the Dipsy Doodle works !” (Larry Clinton)
