Be Your Own Sunshine - Sun Mandala Coloring Page - Instant Download PDF
Description
When my oldest child was still a baby, I used to sing a song called "You Are My Sunshine" by Jimmie Davis. It goes:
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine,
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away.
At the time I thought the song expressed my feelings for him, but these days, I hesitate to sing it to my children. I am now a firm believer that we are responsible for our own happiness. And if I want my children to truly understand that, I can't be relying on them to be my sunshine. I love them so much that I must give them the freedom to feel what they feel, do what they must, and learn from their own experiences. And I want them to know that their mother will be the steady rock that they can always come back to. If my children are going to copy my behaviors anyway, might as well be a good example! :)
So I choose to be my own sunshine. I will not depend on anyone else to make me happy. I will not let anyone take my sunshine away. I hope you will also take your power into your own hands and bring happiness into your life by coloring this mandala!
This listing is for a digital PDF copy of my hand-drawn coloring page. Once you check out, you can download and print it for your personal use as many times as you like. It is best suited to be printed on US letter / A4 size paper.
What will this mandala look like when you are done with it? And what will these words mean to you? I hope you'll share with me once you are done coloring!
By the way, while I'm calling it a coloring page for the lack of a better word, this is just a starting point to help you unleash your creativity! As you can see from my first photo, you don't have to limit yourself to colored pencils and markers. You can stamp it, cut it out, make it into a collage, etc. I cut out some sections in this one and placed patterned paper behind it. Go ahead, set your inner child free and color outside the lines - literally and figuratively!!
Enjoy!
