As I said in ma last post I was unmessing my room. Its goin on in phases. So yesterday it was the turn of this massive pile of cuttings, n write ups of sort.
It was this huge collection of stories, poems, articles, some originals, though most were a part of my collection.
I found this article in that pile... thought it was worth sharing.
ART of EVERYDAY LIVING
Most of us are obsessed with what we dont have, use it as a justification for abandoning our dreams and get anxious and highly strung up.
You can experience your everyday life as art by bringing to it the qualities of an artist-inspiration and absorption, creativity and resourcefulness, play and delight. Artists play with limitation.
There are only so many words in any language, but that doesnt keep the poet from writing.
There is only a certain range of colours the eye can see, but that doesnt keep the composer from composing.
The artist accepts the limitation of form as a starting point of creation.
If you have twelve crayons inyour box, use your creativity and resourcefulness to make the best picture you can with these.
Dont spend time worrying that someone else has forty eight or sixty four crayons.
Remember, as you are, you are adequate to life.
