Vision is purpose in pictures. Your work is your source of your vision. When you find your purpose, and you see it in pictures you've discovered your purpose. Purpose is more important than plans.
You were born because of purpose, not to find it.
- Dr. Myles Monroe

"Whatever you end up doing, love it."

“Well, sometimes if something is really important to you, it gets stuck in your body… So even if your mind thinks that it’s gone, it’s still in there, kind of hiding inside of you, just waiting for you to remember. It never goes away.”

— Priscilla Glenn, Back to You

My Heart Is Always With You, Tracey Emin, 2014

“I was a romantic and sentimental creature, with a tendency towards solitude.”

“With every act of self care your authentic self gets stronger, and the critical, fearing mind gets weaker. Every act of self care is powerful declaration: I am on my side; each day I am more and more on my side.”

— Susan Weiss Berry

Andrew Brischler [USA] (b 1987) ~ “NAP No. 98”.

“Until the whole world is free to agree with you and disagree with you, until you have given the freedom to everyone to like you or to not like you, to love you or to hate you, to see things as you see them or to see things differently - until you have given the whole world its freedom - you’ll never have you freedom.”

— Adyashanti

"All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth" - Friedrich Nietzsche

"Ah…I gave up painting, I gave up art, I gave up believing, I gave up faith. I had what I called my emotional suicide, I gave up a lot of friendships with people, I just gave up believing in life really and it’s taken me years to actually start loving and believing again. I realized that there was a greater idea of creativity. Greater than anything I could make just with my mind or with my hands, I realized there was something…the essence of creativity, that moment of conception, the whole importance, the whole being of everything and I realized that if I was going to make art it couldn’t be about…it couldn’t be about a fuckin’ picture. It couldn’t be about something visual. It had to be about where it was really coming from."

- Tracey Emin
