Will Work For Fun

“You know you are on the road to success if you would do your job, and not be paid for it.” -Oprah

Don't do it for the money, do it for fun.
Do everything just for the love of it!

Please, Do Not Ask Me

How my trumpet sounds,
I can not describe it

What my art means
I can not define it.

Do not limit me with descriptions and definitions

I can not fit inside your box.

Lost

Somewhere between here and there, I lost touch with the real world
And with the real me
Anyone up for the challenge of helping me find either
Or both.

Perfect

Church is the perfect place for imperfect people
"God will gladly sacrifice your comfort to develop your character."
In nightmares, people from the past try to sneak in and join your future.
Or steal you future, I'm not sure which.

And its all good,
Until you wake up confused.

Be Fearless

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us, it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." – Marianne Williamson

Room for Improvement

"You've lived life long enough to know that nothing -- and no one -- is perfect. So why are you holding yourself to such an impossibly high standard? What you have right now, what you're doing right now and (most importantly) who you are right now is good enough! Cut yourself some slack. If you spend all of your time wishing you had more, the universe might take away what you have. Be grateful for the fact that you have room to improve."

Point of View

Does the image in your mirror intrigue you
Does your beauty ever entice you
Are you ever surprised by the look in your eyes
Do you see it the way that I do

"The value of an idea has nothing to do with the success of the man who expresses it"

-Oscar Wilde

The value of a work of art has nothing to do with the popularity of the artist who created it. -Me

Challenge

“I do not try to dance better than anyone else. I only try to to dance better than myself.”

Dream better than myself
Live better than myself
Be better than myself
