I saw this quote recently and it resonated with thoughts that had been nagging at me since the start of 2013. I have an increasing urge to do something significant - something that will create a positive footprint that will outlast me. Yet I think that one thing that keeps me from doing this one significant thing is that I'm not a "one thing" kind of person. I am so fascinated by life, by why things are and how things came to be; I am a specialist in a generalist sort of way, the voluntary eternal student. How then to focus on just one thing when everything seems so special?
Can anyone relate?
Having said that, there are a few things that I suspect will remain at the forefront of my personality throughout my days. One of these is my art. There have been so many lost doodlings created in snatches of time; so many pictures given to others without a second thought that I might want to see them again. And I think that in a way, my art summarizes much of what is going on personally at the time, whether it's an emotional high, or whether I've just discovered the history of pale ale. I hope to capture most of that here and hope that, for all the other eternal, expressive and creative students of life out there, that as you read this, you'll be inspired to keep savouring this world we live in.
