Thank you for a very timely article. Your words resonated with me....I'm in a bit of a creative and life funk and this reminds me to get my spiritual life, thoughts, and creativity back in order. Thank you...thank you.

These may be some of your most significant words ever. Thank you for them. I am reminded of a quotation from the late Lalo Schifrin: “The key is not to imitate life, but to create it anew.” And the featured artwork of J. Cirro Thomas is a beautiful example of pictorial collage, too.

This article really spoke to me. And in that one sentence you stated: “What is being made through me, and am I willing to let it be born?” speaks volumes. I remember many years ago watching an interview with the singer k.d. lang as she was answering a question about her voice and she humbly said it was a gift from God. She didn't take credit for her beautiful voice and knew she was a conduit for it. Thanks for an excellent essay once again, Cecil.
