Now you have had a break, go back to every question and look at your response. Try and find what you feel that your mind presented the image it did. Explain colours you chose, textures, water, cup, solids, liquids, space, objects, people, anything and everything that you wrote from your projected image, try and find what you feel to why you have that image. Don't look hard at things, instead try and look for the easy answers, as they are often the correct one's. Don't attempt to find something that isn't present, just look at each aspect for its absolute simplicity.

This is not an absolute, but something you must do in order to try and self analyse yourself. This is important. Please answer what you can, and simply define if you cannot find an emotion to a response you gave.


The road is a deep reddish brown because I find that colour most pleasing and very relaxing. The cobblestones are identical to those on the street where I grew up in St. John's. I have very pleasant memories of playing on that street and jumping on the stones. I suppose the road is slightly worn because it is so rare to see a new brand new road, at least in my part of the world. I appreciate older things, as they are often more solid and better made. I feel relaxation, happiness and nostalgia.

I enjoy wading in clean fresh water. I have always been drawn to brooks and streams, and consider crossing them both a challenge and a delight. The sound and sight of water relaxes me a great deal. I love the feel of soft sand on my feet. The rocks are there primarily as stepping stones, on the rare occasions that I don't wish to wade in the water. They also remind me to be cautious where I step. I feel again relaxation, delight, excitement, and a bit of trepidation.

The house is manila green because I love that colour and consider most shades of green pleasing, very vibrant and alive. I like things to be well kept and in good condition, because I believe it shows care and concern. I do not feel comfortable in dirty or run down surroundings. Keeping everything in good condition is important for my mood, and my mood directly impacts those around me, especially my family. My children and husband are in the house, along with myself, because they are the most important people in my life, and I like to keep them close. I feel happiness, togetherness, and a sense of duty.

The cup is porcelain because my mum collected porcelain cups and saucers, and as a child I spent many happy moments examining and playing with them. I was fascinated by their intricate designs. Yellow is such a sunny happy colour, and the creamy white off sets the yellow, so its not too intense. I'm not certain about the dust, all I can say is that when a cup is older and is not used often, it does get a bit dusty and needs a wipe before you pour your tea. I feel wonder, happiness, and again a sense of duty, of needing to clean things every so often.

I am not certain about the boulder. Actually I quite like boulders, I enjoyed climbing them as a youngster. I find them especially interesting when they are mossy and multi-coloured. They make the landscape more rugged. I often think about how ancient they are, all the eons they have seen upon this earth. The meadow, cliffs, beach and ocean are indicative of my home in Newfoundland. I suppose I am missing it currently. I love our home and I certainly miss the cliffs and the ocean especially. So, I feel a bit homesick, though I know we will be returning there soon enough.
