Be ceaselessly grateful.
The Attitude of Gratitude.

“Take full account of the excellencies which you possess, and in gratitude remember how you would hanker after them, if you had them not.”

— Marcus Aurelius

“You simply will not be the same person two months from now after consciously giving thanks each day for the abundance that exists in your life. And you will have set in motion an ancient spiritual law: the more you have and are grateful for, the more will be given you.”

— Sarah Ban Breathnach



make great money doing stuff I love (but not selling my ass)
Off to a lovely start!

Yesterday I was commissioned to design and paint two posters for a local play called “Duckhunter Shoots Angel.” Needless to say they were really fun to design and paint.
Yep, I finished them the same day I got the job because I am CRAZY.
But insanity aside, this week I got a fair amount of money to do what I love, and that makes this week awesome.
hooooooo-ray!
