111 Day Artistic Spirit Pledge: Spiritual Growth Through Creative Expression
Day 30: What You Leave Behind
Journeying down a straightened path
Focused on each step
You could easily veer off course
If you lose sight of your goal
Racing towards the focal point
You breeze by options left and right
You must reach the finish line
And not let distractions sway your goal
Walking towards an unforeseen destination
You take your time, turning left and right
Absorbing all that surrounds you
Knowing that reaching the goal will be all the sweeter.
**I am an Artistic Spirit! For most of my life I’ve used the creative arts as a source of spiritual exploration and healing, even though I didn’t always do so consciously. Sometimes I was the instrument creating the art and other times I was on the receiving end. The connection between art and spirituality is so significant in my life that it’s infused into everything I do. I love music, theatre, television drama series (daytime and primetime), and creative writing and find fulfillment in artistic expression of various sorts: singing, acting, and jewelry design. Throughout the next 81 days, I’ll delve into how all of the above strengthens my spirit and has saved my life on more than one occasion.**
