Zentangle Ring Design

This is a ring of tangles in this Zentangle Abstract design. This one was done in more of a rush, but I thought I would brighten it with some color. 

Enjoy this little tangle.

Pipe Zentangle

This Zentangle can get a little confusing or make you dizzy if you look at it for too long. 

It has many pipes and swirls moving in all directions.

Rose Zentangle/Doodle

This is a rose Zentangle/doodle that I created. There is some doodling in this design as well. There are several flowers and roses that I created doodles from. Once I was finished, I believe that this turned out to be a beautiful design. I decided to color in some of the flowers red too...

I will be making a few products with this design on it over a Zazzle :) 

Enjoy viewing it for now...

Poem: Our Amazing Mind

Our mind can be an amazing tool at times,
But other times, it gets us into trouble,
committing embarrassing crimes.

As we grow old, it becomes increasingly hard to remember,
and it isn't as easy as it once was, to play a memory pretender.

Our mind helps us recall some of the most amazing memories,
But then there are times, that it locks the door,
and doesn't hand us the keys.

There are exercises and mind games,
that help us try to remember people's names.

While these may sometimes help,
It doesn't bring back the feelings from those memories
that we once felt.

To help recall, 
we may flip through photo books or browse the pictures
on our wall.

This often ignites a spark,
that turns a light on in the dark.

Videos give us a peak,
to a past that once seemed bleak.

And letters can touch parts of our heart,
that we thought had fallen apart.

When working, our mind is the most helpful key
that helps us learn more about who we once were,
or who we will be.

Hold onto memories that are true and dear,
Because in the end,
Its one of the few things we have left to hold onto
That get us through every one of life's tears.

Coil Tangle

Here is another simple tangle. It also can be customized with other designs or shaded in a variety of ways once you are finished with it. The video is great instruction and is easy to follow along with. 

Zentangle Betweed

This is another "tangle." It is called a Betweed. It's simple to do, yet looks very neat when you combine it with other doodles or tangles. The instructional video is below. You just might be tempted to follow along on your own tile or feel like getting out your materials after watching it! Very inspiring!

Poem: Not Today

Not today... 
I'm not gonna let you get me down,

There's no way you're gonna turn my frown upside down…

Today, I'm putting a smile on my face and I'm heading downtown.

Sometimes there's days that I just can't stand the silence

Or the wicked ambiance that you surround me with…

Not today,

Not today.

I'm not gonna let you get me down.

Yes, I may seem a bit independent

But I'm not turning in to someone who is half-spent…

This is my life…

There may come a time-that I have just one day…

You never know when it will end…

It's not always good to be all work and no play…

Cherish the time…

Not today am I going to live like I'm past my prime.

Today,

The sun is going to shine behind that cloud

And I'm gonna spread my smile all around…

Not today…will I cry.

Poem: The Gift of Life

Life will kick you down,
but then you kick it right back.

Sometimes you felt that it wasn't worth all of the pain,
But there is so much more in life worth to gain.

Don't let life get you down,
God didn't create us to wear a frown.

Why so serious?
Laugh!
God gave us the gift of joyous laughter.
That is definitely one reason to smile.

Sometimes, you have to take a chance.
Roll the dice... and pass go!

Don't get stuck in the mud,
just take off your shoes, and keep on going.
That's why God gave you feet!

It's time to smile, laugh and pick up the pace.
Look up to the sun, and let the light shine on your face.
Bask in God's glorious warmth.

And always remember the simple things...
Without all of those small reminders, life would just be too difficult.

You only live once in this life-time.
Make it worth your while,

Life is the one gift that you can never take back.
