I’m so tired. I work at night, because cool nights are better than 107-degree days. And there is less psychic interruption. But what is really important?

But having a backwards sleep cycle wears you out, and I’m worn to the nubs. Esp with all the crap happening in the world that grabs your attention with nasty hooked claws, making you spend more energy thinking about stupid shit instead of joy, love, and peace.
Since it is said that all possibilities exist simultaneously, I’m thinking that I shall continue to do my best to imagine, focus on, and move towards a reality that has fun, love, and peace in it, instead of one where people continually and constantly and purposefully hurt each other.
Rather than reacting to crummy stuff I can’t do a damn thing about. Right? Like, making and sharing love art.
Art that makes you happy.
And today I’m going to show you something I never show anyone – this is one of my drawings in the early phase of creation. You can see the wobbly lines, the messy colors, the incomplete parts that need finishing.
Just for the heck of it. Because I think this would make such an awesome kid’s rug! Yes, I will finish it, but today, it’s here to be cheerful sloppy, and fun. And a reminder to focus on joy, love and peace, not fear, harm, or trying to impress anyone.
Remember that: joy, love and peace.
