Tidbit: Thought of The Week

It's Natural to have a Strong Reaction to any "Product" of the Creative process which We aren't Familiar with, don't Understand, or we Assume we don't/won't like - Works of Art. . .
Food. . Music . .  . Fashion .. . Literature .  . . Furniture. . ..

But that Doesn't mean It's not Merely a Moment away from being Something which you will Endlessly adore. . . .

This past Weekend I visited my 94 year-old Mimo in KC for Mother's Day. She reminded me That sometimes we just haven't Grown to Appreciate the things that initially make us Squirm.

Eleanor Radford Walters is a wise woman.

Keep an Open Mind & good things Will Follow. Promise.
