The very act of CREATING is an act of POWER, and act of HOPE. It''s a reminder that we are not powerless pawns. We are not cattle in a big cosmic slaughterhouse. By writing a song or drawing a vase with wilted delphiniums is a reminder that we CAN do SOMETHING, a reminder that we have the POWER to make SOMETHING from NOTHING. And as those Reminders add up, as hope begins to grow, we no longer feel overwhelmed by our troubles, by the troubles of the world. We remeber that we, as humans and co-creators, we have the immense power to change things

It is our responsibility to bear witness to the pulse and beauty of life. Our only job is to discover and sing our own song. You can answer the summons. Or you can die.. -Pam Grout
