The following are some of the quotes that have inspired me along the way — both in generating specific art and in keeping me on a path as a working artist.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It’s always necessary to know when a stage of one’s life has ended. If you stubbornly cling to it after the need has passed, you lose the joy and meaning of the rest. And you risk being shaken to your senses by God. – Paulo Coehlo, The Fifth Mountain
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Without access to a creative process we are vastly diminished in our ability to experience the glory of life and we are also more prone to plodding, difficult, or confined lives. – Lenedra J Carroll, The Architecture of All Abundance: Creating a Successful Life in the Material World
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
People will be who they are. We can count on it. They will always be acting out their fears, limitations, hopes, and dreams. If we trust our own judgment, choices, healing ability, and self-honesty, we become free of the need to make others “behave” so we can feel safe. – Lenedra J Carroll, The Architecture of All Abundance: Creating a Successful Life in the Material World
