Story of Bianca:

I See You

"As a child, I thought I wouldn't make it past 40, a secret thought that I shared only with myself… not so much about the fear of leaving the earth but more the fear of separation. All those years I carried that with me in silence, until it was almost my 40th birthday, and with that, enormous unrest in my body... from that moment on I was given a lot of "signs" as a direction indicator on my path, I can fill a book with it.

I found out that I was actually born a day earlier, and I “survived” that magic number, which felt like a new beginning to me… in which I “knew” that I had something else to do here, and that I had to rely on it. I had to let go of a large part of my existing life.

Not much later after I decided to follow my heart, an unexpected meeting followed, where I was allowed to experience through someone else's eyes the unprecedented depth of my own heart and soul, where we understood each other without words... where the energy like a sun from my heart flowed into and through my hands and found a way out. With the words “what you feel and experience you will give to the people around you” I said goodbye and for me, the greatest form of missing became a mission…

I may experience in my own process that the feeling of being separate is just an illusion I create when I allow fear to set in… The moment I close my eyes and go back to my heart I connect with my soul and I remember the reality that we are connected to each other, to everything and everyone. My eyes, the emptier they are… the more they see.

Once a “sir” told my parents that when I grew up I could “do something with my hands”… when I remembered that I thought to myself, even though I prefer to be that little girl, I am now 42 old enough….

In retrospect, the past few years felt like a learning experience for me, as a preparation for the time we have arrived in, to touch and open up as many people as possible with my heart and hands… To make them aware and to connect with themselves, their own strength, and the light that shines in all of us… to co-create our world TOGETHER again to “live from our hearts with a good guiding head”

Often I've thought, I'm not from here or I don't belong here,… but I do know now why I'm here, to also “remind” YOU that you are light and love, and that the world needs us!

And yes then in my 11th year of life (47) as happy as a child, I hand out hearts during the demos in which I participated. Because I am so proud of all those different beautiful souls who carry this world with hearts and hands in connection with each other! Thank you!
I See You, and when you look into my eyes I hope I may be the mirror of your beautiful soul!"

I am still looking for more eyes to paint, so are you interested in participating 👇🏼
