10 Gifts of the Season: Day 4- Artistry
"For me the artist simply means one who can transform ordinary life into a beautiful creation, with his craft. But I did not mean creation strictly applied only to the arts. I meant creation in life, the creation of a child, a garden, a house, a dress. I was referring to creativity in all its aspects. Not only the actual products of art, but the faculty for healing, consoling, raising the level of life, transforming it by our own effort."

Happy Thankful Thursday beautiful hearts! Can you believe it's already the 4th day of the 10 Gifts of the Season? In the busyness of our lives, I believe it is ever so important to pause and remember what invokes our inner artist. Perhaps it's a beautiful day, a blank canvas, forgiveness, transition, opportunity, a new song...and the list could travel on and on my friends. When was the last time you allowed yourself to tap this divine resource?
This quote by Anis Nin so eloquently uncovers the essence of what it means to be an artist. "I meant creation in life..." I've overheard so many conversations in which an individual might not claim to have any 'artist talents' but we are artists according to this definition. How would your life change if you lived with this explanation of an artist? We are all the overseers of our talents- our talent to notice the simple and yet profound task of living.
Close your eyes for just a moment and bring your hand to your heart. Everything that this precious hand touches is an extension of your heart, an artistic imprint is embellished with every movement.
In this season of your life, may you claim your craft and create a great work everyday! Commit to the process of being an artist. As you allow inspiration to light your inner spark, you encourage the rest of the world to wake up in wonder.
May You Sweetly Seek:)
In Gratitude,
Sarah
