Musing…
“We are going to dance regardless, war or no war.”
Valentina Belyaeva, member of Kyiv’s tango community
Charise’s Turn:
April is national poetry month. I think about whether my
poetry is getting enough care and maintenance. In Kate’s last post she
confessed that it’s been a long time since she engaged in her watercolor art.
Life has a way of getting 'lifey.' But this can become an appealing sort of
excuse, especially given a neologism like that. Art is imperative. It feeds us
on so many levels. Read the quote above one more time. The expression of
creativity is life-affirming, and we need that affirmation, especially now. This is my pep talk to both myself and you to give your creative yearnings the utmost
attention. You will feel uplifted, which will support all the requirements of daily
life, even in heartbreak and hardship.
Get Fired Up:
Make way for creative expression, regardless.
