Life offers ongoing opportunities to live a dream. To accept what comes, to live those moments completely, can prove existential ecstasy. The clock is always ticking. To waste precious time may prove the greatest of all crimes - where one is both criminal and victim.

“No man has the right to dictate what other men should perceive, create or produce, but all should be encouraged to reveal themselves, their perceptions and emotions, and to build confidence in the creative spirit.”
― Ansel Adams

"Art accesses some of the most advanced processes of human intuitive analysis and expressivity and a key form of aesthetic appreciation is through embodied cognition,"
– Christopher Tyler, director of the Smith-Kettlewell Brain Imaging Center
"#Art awakens the brain," #Youtopien
There are times when you have to let your mind go, allow it to wander, to engage is free associations and flights of fantasy.
These are building times, constructions of personal imaginationings.
These are healing times, when cares of daily life are washed away.

Musicians want to be called artists. Artists never make "cover" art, it is always original.
Actors want to be called artists. Artists don't make the same picture over and over again, like a stage performer does a character night after night.
Stay in your places. Artists make art.
“What I think of #bicycling, I think it has done more to emancipate #women than any one thing in the world.
"It gives her a feeling of self-reliance and independence the moment she takes her seat; and away she goes, the picture of untrammeled womanhood.”
— Susan B. Anthony, 1896
"Our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are, or where we are going in this ocean of chaos. It has been the authorities, the political, the religious, the educational authorities who attempted to comfort us by giving us order."
― T Leary
"Don’t spend the rest of your life contemplating the inner wonders. Begin immediately expressing your revelation in acts of beauty. That’s very much a part of our religion—the glorification, the acting out, the expression of what you have learned.”
― Timothy Leary

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.
He who is not satisfied with a little is satisfied with nothing.
Not what we have, but what we enjoy, constitutes our abundance.
— says Epicurus
