Keep the channel open












I try to remember this:

“There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep yourself open and aware to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. ... No artist is pleased. [There is] no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer divine dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others”
 - Martha Graham

Morning hits

"Milk belongs with cereal" -pleads my 3 year old son when confronted with dry cereal.  I know, dear, it's true.

The car is packed, one last thing, almost done..baby in the car seat, here we..uh..oh no..wait, don't cough, no, ok, no, wha...noooo!  Deflated and defeated...I'm late.  Clean the baby and a change of clothes...at least she's smiling.  Set baby aside and clean the car seat.  Vinegar will do.  Put a towel down, add baby.  Still smiling.  On our way.  "She may smell like a pickle, but she's fine."

Pro-"life" woman thinks I'm giving her a thumbs up.
