i have come to under­stand that each year i take a break…i don’t mean to nor do i sched­ule, i just seem to shut down creatively…each year i try to see where it stems from and in truth i have never come to a com­plete answer.….as a usu­ally happy and pro­duc­tive cre­ative i am in per­pet­ual motion, think­ing, doing, cre­at­ing — moving…what i believe i have learned this time around is this is my time of much needed still.…in the still­ness we can recharge, reflect and regroup. it is an impor­tant ritual.

what also comes with this, usu­ally are tears…sometimes i am not sure from where they flow, but i always feel cleansed after they are done…so much of a day is con­sumed with oblig­a­tion and appear­ance, what we lack are express­ing our rights, like the right to cry…not as a sign of weak­ness or bro­ke­ness, but when we need to cleanse the inner cob webs that can jam up the cre­ative machine…today is one such day of right & rit­ual and i have uncorked the dam and embrace the still that will follow.
