"NOTHING IS ORIGINAL. STEAL FROM ANYWHERE THAT
RESONATES WITH INSPIRATION OR FUELS YOUR IMAGINATION.
DEVOUR OLD FILMS, NEW FILMS, MUSIC, BOOKS, PAINTINGS,
PHOTOGRAPHS, POEMS, DREAMS, RANDOM CONVERSATIONS,ARCHITECTURE, BRIDGES, STREET SIGNS, TREES, CLOUDS,BODIES OF WATER, LIGHT AND SHADOWS. SELECT ONLY THINGSTO STEAL FROM FROM THAT SPEAK DIRECTLY TO YOUR SOUL. IF YOU DO THIS,YOUR WORK (AND THEFT) WILL BE AUTHENTIC.AUTHENTICITY IS INVALUABLE; ORIGINALITY IS NON-EXISTENT.

LOVE THIS! You are the most talented! Hope you get everything accomplished! Are you selling on Sunday?
I had a mega-dose of goodness last night and this morning. Book project and dinner at home with my ten year old little delight. A drive to school this morning was topped off by her willingness to hug me goodbye in front of everyone at school. Bliss. I'm girded for anything now.
