Sacred Surf: 198/365
A friend suggested I change the SG365 slogan to, "I broke another globe." I think she may be right, but this time it wasn't my fault. I took Julia's advice and made my own "sacred creative space" complete with a desk, computer, The Artist's Way, my journal, and three snow globes.
Apparently, the way I displayed the globes was too irresistible for my five-year-old to crash them into each other. Of course it couldn't have been the Christmas tree globe I have duplicates of. The upside to all of these broken snow globes is that I have an interesting collection. Some people may collect shot glasses, spoons, or even whole snow globes, but my collection doesn't just sit on a shelf. It interacts with someone daily, and sometimes the risk is that it breaks. I bet the snow globe even agrees that it's quality of life is improved by my project, even if it has to act as a prop for a crime scene or be part of weird, Barbie head, broken toy display.

Devastation: 143/365
My favorite globe broke. The actual globe was bigger than any of my others, had amazing reflective qualities, and worse yet, it wasn't mine. I was playing with the reflection of the mini pine cones and it rolled over a rock that made it literally "pop"! I sat there in shock as the water poured out. It smelled like rubbing alcohol and trouble. I broke the news to my friend, Traci, who didn't seem too mad, but I was both mad and sad. Thanks, Traci for sacrificing your globe for my project. I love you and this globe, and refuse to stop using it. For anyone counting this is #6.

Two Sides: 139/365
Tonight I was inspired by the film, Black Swan and the roles of duality in our own lives. What did you think of the film? I really liked it, but I'm a fan of the dark and psychologically twisted;)
