For those of us who have become artistically anorectic - yearning to be creative and refusing to feed that hunger in ourselves so that we become more and more focused on our deprivation - a little authentic luxury can go a long way.
Art requires us to empower ourselves with choice. At the most basic level, this means choosing to do self-care.
Because artistic losses are seldom openly acknowledged or mourned, they become artistic scar tissue that blocks artistic growth...The unmourned disappointment becomes the barrier that separates us from future dreams.
"Surround yourself with people who respect and treat you well." Claudia Black
"Man can learn nothing except by going from the known to the unknown." Claude Bernard
Just as a player who ignores a sore muscle may tear it further, an artist who buries his pain over losses will ultimately cripple himself into silence.
