I’m not sure my art can change the world but I know it can change me.

I’ve long struggled with what, and how, I can do in order to best serve. I’ve tried various things but today it became a little clearer as I sat silent in meditation that the best thing I can do for the world is to be a better person.

Stop trying to change the world “for the better.” Simply change myself and the world will be better as a result.

I’ve said this before — let your work be an expression of Bodhichitta.

I’ve never felt this to be more true than I did today.
