Calm for Now
Calm for Now -- sketch by douglas brent smith, from Journal #31 Collaborating In Three Spheres, 1996.
Notes:
It's only a random sketch in the middle of some random ramblings in my journal at a time my family was having a rough time. The ability to draw is quite calming, whether or not the drawing has any merit. It's a three-panel cartoon without any joke, or message, or meaning. Or, is it?

While I was drawing this my son Juan, five years old, asked me what I was doing.
"Drawing." I said
"Can I draw, too?" he asked.
"Of course."
So here's what he drew:

I often save my doodles. Each one is a little story. If the doodles (Hey, they're drawings!) show up in a journal, well they are there a long time. I have not thrown away many journals. I hope that when I am gone that someone saves them...and then when I'm gone I land someplace where I can still draw.
Try saving YOUR doodles. Put them in a book. Collect them. They may make you smile some day and will likely help someone to remember you with a smile.
