Creativity & Mindfulness - Book Review

I highly recommend the new book, “Emergence: The Role of Mindfulness in Creativity” by Rosie Rosenzweig.

She presents creativity in a way we have not seen in ages. Or ever.

Goodbye, Best Friend

I lost my best friend on March 30 th , this past Tuesday. She was fourteen years old and literally saved my life on more than one occasion. Her friendship was invaluable. Her soul changed my life forever. I love her so much and already miss her. Today, I created art that represented who she was. Wise, non-harming, intelligent, loving, devoted, and so much more. Thank you, Lilly, for being an amazing friend and honoring me with your love and kindness.
