More scrapbooking fun with…. Aldous Huxley in the House

Hi All!

Man, I hate to keep sounding like a downer, but we just had to have the talk with my mom about moving her into an Retirement home. Yippeee… Truth is, she realized the time had come and with hugs and tears between her, me and my husband, I’m sure we will all muddle through. So, I am telling all of you right now, as soon as I start peeing my pants and forgetting what day it is, park me in the Caviar and Champagne Rest Home and call it a day.

And because I hate feeling sorry for myself, I dug up another favorite quote, this from Aldous Huxley, puts it all in perspective. And playing in the photoshop sandbox always makes me feel better.  Enjoy!

Mr. Huxley kicks some serious butt

Thanks for stopping by, I love hearing your comments, even though it takes me some time to get to them, time zones and all. All my best wishes go out to you this day.

If Carl Jung had ever discovered scrapbooking…

The first in a series of scrapbooking ideas.

Okay, one of my favorite artists/teachers is Carl Jung. You may know that he hung out with Freud for about five years and then they parted ways. After the “break” up Jung took some time to develop many of the theories he is now famous for, archtypes, the collective unconscious, and individuation. During this time, he made many notes and he later put them together, along with gorgeous illustrations in his Lebre Novus also known as the Red Book.

This is one of what will be a series of my silly slant. What if Carl Jung had discovered the joys of scrapbooking when he was putting together his opus? It’s an interesting juxtaposition, don’t you think?

What do you think? Do you have any favorite Carl Jung quotes that you’d like to see illustrated in this manner? Just let me know. Thanks for stopping by. Don’t let the shadow drag you around by your tail.  Cheers, rachel
