Nice one gfyourself! It's so cool to see someone else make one. Try doing it again in a month. I've found that it changes which is a good reminder for me that whatever state I'm in is temporary. Thanks so much for posting this!

thecatewhite,
What I liked about your chart was the spontaneity of the hand-lettered captions and the hand-drawn shape. Very artful, in the modern DIY way. That part is so together, it would be wonderful to see your pie sections morph into a more balanced state. It's just good that you're working on it, no matter what form. You might want to check out recent books by Lynda Barry (you can use the MIHH Amazon site!). She is very confessional and uses hand-lettering and drawing to talk about her fucked up life and how she uses art to make sense of it. I love her; she has given me much.
Good luck. Keep up the good work.

I agree you presented the pie chart very well. Every body has the same pie chart of their emotional life.

Late to the party, but I liked this post.
I know if I did this honestly, I would probably lose the rest of the day, which I can't do right now.
I was, however, reminded of an old idea by a World War I pilot once describing being a pilot in the war.
So here's that.
