How To Feel Vibrant and Alert

Hello my loved ones! This is a painting I finished in the summer. It's vibrant and alert. It's a depiction of consistency and balance. Both definitions are valuable to any relationship including the one with your self. Your willingness to glide through the scary parts of life is the path towards perfection. Society has found too many ways to repress, avoid, and numb out feelings. We are meant to grow in love and wisdom but with mental blockage it becomes a struggle. It's our responsibility to understand the root of our emotions. I know several people constantly walking around sad, bitter, angry and depressed. We can blame it on the television, the internet, or even our parents but at the end of the day you are in control of what you will put in your body, mind and spirit. No matter how old or how young, never lose sight of your passion. Connect with something that makes you feel free, makes you laugh, keeps you smiling and allows you to let go of time. Your passion will pull you back to clarity. My destination is no longer a place, but a different way of seeing.

Peace,
ZB

Spring Vigilance

Greetings loved ones, This picture reminds me of how connected we are with nature. The tree an extension of myself, helping me stay balanced and grounded. I'd like to share what I've been practicing in order to transform into my better self. Perhaps you will find something helpful that will further your inner journey as well. Practice compassion for those who have separated themselves consciously. Start by forgiving yourself for not being perfect. Love individuals that are difficult to love. Not just particular people, do it without circumstance or demand. Remain vigilant and conscious. Stay present. Be impervious to negativity. Take accountability. Do your inner work. When you know yourself, you trust yourself. The more trust the more self love and self acceptance. Stay connected with nature. I enjoy going to the beach or sitting under a blanket of trees in my garden. Listen to the rhythm of nature. Nature moves with purpose. A vision pulls you forward. Don't...

I'm Reading at the Craft & Folk Art Museum

The CAFAM Shop is thrilled to introduce a new zine/small press section, curated by L.A. Zine Fest and The Pop-Hop . We're celebrating the launch of the new collaboration Saturday, April 18th, and you're invited. Work from The Blk Grrrl Show , John Pham, Yumi Sakugawa :: Comic Book Artist + Illustrator , Tiny Splendor , and Selfish. This is really exciting for me because I have been a zinester since 2010 with the launch of my Black Punk Rock themed zine "Abstract By Nature." I'll be there representing with the #blkgrrrl show and reciting a few of my poems from my chapbook "Rage Love Complexity." Very honored to share the stage with Pam Ward and Teka Lark Fleming. I donated books and I will have chapbooks available at the Pop Hop in Highland Park, Ca. See you there, Zoe Blaq

This was an inspiring weekend for every type of writer who needs a little push. I had fun sharing my poetry with a talented group of Los Angeles poets at the annual LitFest Pasadena.
