"Dreams come true; without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them." - John Updike
“Every time you don’t follow your inner guidance, you feel a loss of energy, loss of power, a sense of spiritual deadness.” – Shakti Gawain
“Every production of an artist should be the expression of an adventure of his soul.” — William Somerset Maugham

MAP
"It tells the truth by lying,
like a poem with bold hyperbole of shape and line--
A masterpiece of false simplicity.
Its secret meanings must be mulled upon,
Yet all the world is open to a glance.
With colors to fire the mind, a song of names,
A painting that is not at home on walls
But crumpled on a stations wagon floor,
Worn through at folds, tape patched and chocolate smudged
(What other work of art can lead you home?)
--A map was made to use. " - Juliana Muehrcke
