You Have the Dream; DO IT!

It never goes away you know; that aching in your heart that there is something you were meant to do. When you slow life down enough to listen, you hear it. You can't deny it and you can't make it go away. You can only make life louder in an effort to drown out the heartbeat, but, in the end, you can't win. Because even if you manage to make life loud, the day will come when everything is silent. Maybe it will be bad news from the doctor, or old age, or a tragic life event, but sooner or later life will grow quiet again, and it that quietness you will hear it;
pum pum, pum pum, pum pum.
The unmistakeable sound of your hearts dream.

Don't fight it!

Don't try to silence it!

Feed it!

Exercise it!

And watch it grow!

It's yours, and nobody else can live it. Take your pulse and
GO FOR IT!

Keeping It Going

As an artist, you are obligated to do the one thing that only YOU can do. Get the art OUT! Deep in your creative vault is a piece of art waiting to be born and only YOU can get it out. Once it's out, there is a small army of people who can help you develop it, but only YOU can get it out of your vault and into the world! What is it that you've always wanted to do? Start the process now. Flirt with your imagination, court your creativity and plant the seed that will grow into your incredible DREAM.
