In Nature, no landscape or organism is more or less important than the next – the sky does not envy the water or earth for having something it does not, nor does a grizzly bear aspire to be an eagle. Everything exists to complement the whole as is. So too, artists need not compare themselves – each creative spirit has unique stories & gifts to share and merge into one collective consciousness. Keep inspiring the world, my WordPress friends, while embracing your otherness! We all have a purpose in life that extends beyond the blog-o-sphere into the universe – each shock wave of thought altering the course of imagination. Your hearts and souls bring balance to the world on a daily basis and make life interesting. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend wherever you reside!
