Here is what I have come to understand in the past several years, the culmination of two+ decades of inner work:
Doing my art(s) is how I change the world.
I do not need to be another Gandhi or Mother Theresa; I do not need to find the cure for cancer. I simply need to follow my heart’s desires, what is calling to me; I simply need to feed my hungers.
THAT is how I change the world. THAT is how I am a Creative World-Changer.
By doing what feeds me, I change my inner state, I become full, happy, joyful, resilient, and I bring THAT energy to everything I do any everyone I encounter.
THAT is changing the world.
Then, by sharing what I create, I touch people. Often in ways I never see or know.
THAT is changing the world.
And by all of the above, I model for others what is possible, and THAT is changing the world.
Go forth and create, Creative World-Changers!
