Since I was a child explorer sitting on a large rock in the middle of Cherry Creek when it was a creek full of wildlife and trout within my sight.
Where I went to find a quiet place to be with my thoughts. Hopefully, to catch a few trout to take home for supper.
While I was sitting there watching the water flow around myself and the rock. I said to myself, water is powerful yet flexible to go through or around whatever it wants.
I yelled out! "I will be the water!"
It has been a journey of growth. Within God's plan for my life. To use the gifts, he bestowed upon me. To be an inspiration to all that walks within my sight.
I must believe that whatever happens to me there is a resource and purpose.
As an artist and writer, I must feel this more intensely.
All that happen including our humiliations, our misfortunes, our embarrassments, all given to me raw and messy. So, I may shape the words I write and the strokes of my art brush to create what my heart and soul see's.
The little child is still within me.
Exploring the creative worlds of imagination.
Where they both collide in unpredictable artistic expression of love for all humanity.
