I should tell you about one of my favorite artistic practices: Lectio Divina. Originally a form of contemplative prayer. 1. Choose an image that speaks to you. 2. Spend a good deal of focused time meditating on why it speaks to you. 3. Create something in response, from that depth of feeling.

Late night meditation. I'd rather live well, love the people in my life well, than be successful. I'd rather profoundly impact a few in good and true ways than be famous and widely known. I will die content one day having lived such a life.

my personal advice to those seeking work: prioritize messaging people over applying to positions I don't think I have ever gotten a single job from an application. It's always been the result of meeting someone, having a conversation, discovering an opportunity
