“You have a soul in you of rare quality, an artist’s nature; never let it starve for lack of what it needs.” Marcel Proust

What makes you excited? Get your juices flowing? Makes you grateful? Brings you that total body experience of enjoyment? Makes you smile until your face hurts? Gives the feeling that all is right with the world?

What makes your environment just right to serve that creative best that is in you? We all have it, whether a writer, painter, singer, sewer, fencer, yoga-er, party planner, traveler, dreamer, mother, father, empathizer, actor, and list goes on forever and to eternity.

What do you want to learn? What are you committed to? What do you want to accomplish and what is holding you back? What gives you courage to go on? What do you need to leave behind so you can move forward? What are you so afraid of? Why?

Wind is blowing everything around here today and so it is a good day to rearrange, to prepare, to let go, to chase dreams. What are you starving for? Take that first step and the rest will become easier and as you head down the path you were meant to be on in the first place, the burden will lighten, and you will know such joy. Let it be.
