One of the many important quotes I love from Martin Luther King Jr.! |
The inspiration and reason I wake up every day! |
Highly nutritious for 3$ at ALDI-not organic but close! |
In the spirit of MLK day, I’d like to pause and dig deep in what matters most
This blog is absolutely not political in any shape or form. But this is a new year. A new beginning. And sometimes moments in our creative lives require reflection in order to keep our creative juices aware to function and why I do what I do and the freedoms that I have in America to be able to think and do what I do.
My top 3 things I do to keep myself sane, healthy and on track with my daily life.
1 diet, exercise and health in order to ‘stay safe’-this is what I drink every day: cold pressed juices including whole foods, minimal processed and fast food-(do not deprive yourself-you’ll go insane).
Dog walking, yoga and working in a warehouse environment keeps me fit and never sedentary!
2 open mindedness understanding and compassion-freedom to respect other peoples opinion. MLK looked at the world with compassion and understanding! Respecting other peoples opinions even if you disagree is how we are a democracy! Without it we are doomed. Government overreach has grown and taken us down a dangerous and dark path-being aware of this and always on your toes for multiple sources of information is crucial-independent media is the path of the future.
3 creating art is my therapy and the freedom to share and create whatever I chose -no censorship. Always learning new ways to create and new artist ideas and inspiration is what motivates me-the pets I live with bring my stress levels down and are also my inspiration-I could never function without a dog by my side.
I’m going to die one day and if I don’t hold to my convictions while I’m here on this beautiful blue earth-I serve no purpose.
This is my daily life. Only here for a short time-making the best of it-dig deep about those who are gone and no longer with us. It will gut you and force you to believe in yourself.
