note 8/4/2025

 i truly appreciate your support over these years. you have watched me go from someone who had no idea what i was doing to someone who still has no idea what i am doing but i do it with more confidence. i fail and learn with greater assurance, in large part, because of the love and confidence you have in me.

you've watched me be creative my entire life through different mediums. i finally get to share with you that being creative for its own sake is one thing, and doing it for health is another. and yet, doing it as a way to make life more decorative and engaging is a whole other thing. what am i really trying to say? that i have greater focus and vision now. i know now that i am not being creative to entertain or be interesting or even to espouse my faith as a virtue signal. what i have found is that my true creative calling is to use my creativity to inform and inspire. that's it. 

(i placed this note directly into the archive because i wanted it to be preserved as a reference. i am not using capitalization because it is easier to write that way for me. please forgive me if it bothers you upon reading).
