May our thoughts be calm
May our hearts be true
May our intent be pure
May our words be kind
May our bodies endure
May our souls persevere
May our friendships be strong
May our love overflow
May our desires be right
May our sorrows be short
May our pains be fleeting
May our joy be forever

❤️🫂❤️

Just love each other, folks
Care for one another. Be kind to one another. Gentle words, a helping hand, an extension of support and encouragement; all of us need these things so much right now
Give space for mistakes. Allow room for understanding. Most of all, laugh together
Just love each other

❤️

Dark and Wondrous - it's in the trees! it's coming! @darkandwondrous.bsky.social · 11d

As October begins, we contemplate how the sea wind had its way with this now-fungal saint.

scary sea-weathered saint on the church near Hartlepool headland (body of saint is heavily eroded down to a veined or boxwork-like underlying structure of the stone, which looks like weird branching fungus).

ELRIC AT THE FORGE OF FOREVER (2019)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 14 ½” x 6 ½”

When I tossed out the old container of paints used to do the cover painting for WORDS OF RADIANCE, it landed upside down in my wastebasket on a piece of paperboard I had been using as a palette for something else. 1/2

Elric stands on an outcrop of rock with skulls at his feet. He wears a black hooded cloak trimmed in gold and jeweled bracers. He cradles Stormbringer as the length of the runesword, glowing purple, extends well above his head. Below him water spills frothy onto the shore but as it stretches back, placid and glassy, it gives way to erupting vents of lava.

A formline design of a butterfly cocoon and a butterfly, coloured in blue, pink, and white. On one half of the chrysalis is a human face, and the butterfly’s wings are formed of human hands.

People with chronic illnesses will have stomach cramps, headaches, joint pain, muscle pain, fatigue, nausea, dizziness and more every single day and still act completely normal in public. Remember, you never know the pain someone be in just by looking.

A lush green fantasy forest setting with a pond in the middle and a lot of magical creatures scattered around it.

Detail of one of the creatures, what looks like a combination of a deer and an owl with leaves growing on it's budy and mushroom antlers.

Another creature, an ent looking creature with a leafy body and branch antlers. Small glowing blue birds flying around it.

Pina ✨ ADHD Alien @adhd-alien.bsky.social · 2d

I’ve learnt that only hyperfocus can keep me from disappointing others. Sometimes.

Two-page comic about ADHD, self-doubt, and burnout.

Panels 1+2
A person with short black hair and yellow antennae recalls lifelong struggles with effort and recognition. As a child, they cry while being scolded over homework. Later, they work hard but still fail small details and receive an “F.” When they finally succeed, they can’t enjoy it—holding a medal labeled “2,” they feel it’s luck, not skill.

Panel 3+4
Page 2:
They explain how productivity fluctuates. A blue graph shows steady effort, while a pink line spikes wildly. They say, “For me, it fluctuates more extremely.” Sitting exhausted at a messy desk, they admit, “I only stop when I’m too tired to go on. The word I learned for all this was ‘lazy.’ I never learned a healthy measure or how to trust myself.”

Don't keep your emotions bottled up.

It's okay to cry, it's okay to vent.

It's okay not to be okay, you aren't a burden to anyone.

It's healthy to cry, holding in your emotions will only hurt you further, don't be hard on yourself.. 🫂
