There is an artist inside each of us. Revel in imperfection. Creative work is matriarchal; honor it. Our lives and everything inside them are a work in progress. Above all, nurture. The small things are really the big things. Share your art without disclaimers. Everything is better with a little snack. Be generous in spirit, honest in word, and kind in intention. Actively listen, then notice how it changes your life. Look for the humor. Acknowledge the darkness. If you’re creating, you’re contributing. Embrace grit. Try to be gentle. Take every opportunity to celebrate and raise a glass. Let your freak flag fly. Look for God in everyone, everywhere.
