To Make the Pen Move
I always pray to continuously walk in creative flow. Sometimes, I’m caught up in rapture of storytelling. Other times, there’s a silence that pierces my soul. I’m not sure what all the elements are to create the perfect storm that makes my pen move or my cursor to glide. Gratitude seems to be at least one piece of the puzzle.
The Thing About Life
“Feeling inadequate isn’t all that uncommon. Just because you’re born into a certain special circumstance, or your life is put on a specific path doesn’t mean that your way is any more illuminated than others. You’re right, though when you lack inner faith, it’s almost as if you have an invisible target on your back. Instead of receiving mercy or kindness, you might just be gutted like a defenseless deer.”
