Inspiration
For Artists
Quoted
from Martha Graham to Agnes DeMille:
"There is a vitality, a life
force, a quickening that is translated through you into action and because
there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. And if
you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and be lost.
The world will not have it.
It
is not your business to determine how good it is, nor how valuable it
is, nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to
keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not
even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and
aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open.
"No artist is pleased... there
is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer, divine
dissatisfaction; a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us
more alive than the others."
.........................................................................................................................................
We are each unique and bring to our roles as parents a point of view,
set of experiences, talents and interests that are our own and ours alone.
Some of our experiences may have been negative; some of our talents we
may value more than others. But it behooves us as parents to value the
best of what we have to offer our children and to encourage them to develop
into creative, vital and productive people -- to be fulfilled but continually
evolving.
