what am I doing here?
Every day I wake up and have to look at all the ways we’ve screwed up the world. And are continuing to screw it up!
I feel powerless.
I can make my little things, and talk about them. I can hope that other people enjoy reading, and making their own art. In whatever form it takes for you, art is good for your soul.
“Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven's sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.”
—Kurt Vonnegut
