Goodbye to should -- hello to happy!

Right now the world is a scary place. And unless you’re in a location
that’s being threatened, I think it’s defiant to be happy. We need to be
conscious of the misery being inflicted everywhere yes. We need to
send money if we can to support causes that deliver food, and we need
to demand that our governments say no to any and every war. But
if we have a place to live, food to eat, heat in winter, cooling in
summer, people who love us, and a community, we can be happy
 — one of the strongest forms of resistance. Making art is another
form of resistance.

Give in to colour, give in to your creative brain’s impulses, and ignore
 the noise. Oh and the shoulders —(should ers) those people who know
 what you “should” be doing and how, even if they’ve never done what
 you’re doing. Just say thank you. Great advice, and go back
to dreaming and creating! 

Yes HAPPY New Year! 

Have a loving your life day!
