Let me offer my humble perspective - the work you love doing can inspire someone. Even if you just inspire one person, their worldview can change forever (for the better!).

Great hearing from you, Ryan. And agreed. It's something I remind myself. But so often got distracted by "more-ism". Thanks for the encouragement, keep it coming. 😋 (Hope you are recovering well from COVID, by the way.)

This is also really good for me to ponder! I was easily writing newsletters every week and now I find myself struggling - not for lack of material, but I think I'm somehow fighting against the creativity instead of flowing with it.

Hi Karen,

I hear you! A weekly publishing schedule takes a higher commitment.

What seems to be hindering you to flow with the creativity? Is it the space between the frequency of the next post? Or could it be the "need" to keep to a same content format? I've experienced both and I've also changed both to suit where I am now, and that keeps me going.

Anyway, I'm still exploring, figuring things out as I go along. As with life too, right? 😉

I think it's trying to make it something "more" - as in "more meaningful" or I don't know somehow just something more. And 100%, that's all I think life is, exploration.

I think I can relate and understand what you meant by “more”. It’s one thing to want to improve on what we are doing, but another thing when we feel like what we do is not enough? Your work is very lovely, it’s a gift to people who sees them. Keep exploring one day at a time. Cheering you on!

I really like your "ugly" art! It's good to get out of the head and play! I struggle also with that! (Depends when you form your art group, I might be able to join from time to time, it's been a long time since I actually did art!)

Dear Maja,

😆 Thanks for liking my "ugly" art! I'm comforted to know I'm not alone in my struggle to just have fun with creating and not be so hung up about getting things right. Urgh. Will be in touch when I set up the art group. Thinking about Discord. Not sure if there are other suitable platforms?
