All I have to say is having an artists mind…..it is so dificult and lonely sometimes, but I wouldn’t trade it to be “normal” for anything else I see around me. There is nothing wrong with being outside the box. At least I try not to be hypocritical. I am not striving to be rich, famous or worldly for that matter. I am only expressing something else that connects us, for in that moment of connection, we are all precious. That which we try to find in school, church, relationships, work, and for me, in everything I see. The most inspiring thing this week…the wind speaking to me through the dying pine trees of “Evergreen”. There is only hope in our own eyes, and the world in my eyes is so beautiful when I simply look inside my own heart. I encourage those with less creative interests to do the same, and realize there are differences in all of us to make a world that is not boring. Our creator is the most beautiful artist ever. I am a firm beleiver that we are all blessed to be living here, right here right now with each other around the world to look outside to learn, and inside to open up. We are created differetly for a reason. I only fear one thing: a world full of grey and similarity without artful expression.
