The only way to truly and authentically build and serve something is in a way that allows for ALL parts of you to come through.

‘learn to loosely hold all that is not eternal’

The reason we don’t share, we don’t create is because we have a voice in our head going “that doesn’t look like what she/he would create”. We compare our creations to others just as we compare ourselves to others.

Go to the limits of your longing: Let everything happen to you: Beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.

- Rilke

be confident in the depth of your curiosity not in the depth of your expertise

YOU are NOT them. What you create SHOULD NOT and CANNOT look like what they would create. It should look like YOU.

The more you create from that mindset, the more you ALLOW yourself to play and experiment with every aspect of your being (which is all that creation is) the stronger (and dare I say, better) what you create will become. The more you will ACTUALLY enjoy it. The more YOURSELF you will become.

Becoming YOURSELF is inseparable from what you create and share out in the world, whether in small or big ways.
