Arise
Never fear challenges nor obstacles. Don't shy away from pain. Don't hide in the shadows.
Go to the places within that scare you and...arise!
In contemplating this alcohol Inks painting, I was reminded of a beautiful Rumi poem.
Wings of hope languish
from lack of use.
When wings dissipate and weaken,
Life begins to lose its value.
Every cell in your body is created
to rise to challenges.
Your life is meant to confront
everything that holds you captive.
Don't sit at the bottom of the well,
not caring about salvation.
Listen to the voice within calling to you.
Reach for eminence
beyond your own maturity!
