Creativity Can't Be Used Up
Artist: Henryk T. Kaiser“You’ve heard the cliché, popularized in novels, movies, and bad TV shows: Artists [and writers] are vain, self-absorbed creatures, neurotically focused on their work, completely indifferent to the needs of others.
Like everything else worth doing in life, art [and writing] demands time, energy, and concentration – three tools in limited supply. Moments spent at the drawing board or behind the weaving loom [or computer screen] sometimes translate as moments not shared [with friends and family]…It’s a tough equation to balance.
But you know what? Maybe I’m lucky, but I’ve never met a selfish artist. Creativity is a funny, magical gift. Unlike most other gifts, it can’t really be used up. In fact, when it’s nurtured, disciplined, and expressed on a regular basis, it tends to grow – a phenomenon so satisfying it often results in an overwhelming urge to give to others.
Every artist I know can recall the exact moment in his or her childhood when that magical gift first manifested itself and a tray of paints, a scrap of fabric, or a squishy blob of clay [or a squishy blob of words] opened up an enchanted world of infinite possibilities.”

Sometimes life makes it very difficult for us to remember,
We all have access to that infinite world of creative possibility.
Inspiration and Creativity cause an amazing ripple effect.
Each inspired, creative act affects others around them,
Quietly touching one person,
Who in turn touches another,
Reaching out to ends
Further than any of us will ever know.

DOG LOVE INSPIRES
Mattie Faye: The Greta Garbo of French BulldogsStage Names: French Fry, Pee Wee, Miss Mattie May & Naughty-Head
Mattie Faye lives in Key West with:
Rudyard:
The lion-hearted golden retriever trapped in a German shepherd body,
Bentley:
The Coolest Cat in Town and
Ralph Ernest:
The James Dean of kittens, rescued from Hemingway House.
The MUSEologies Studio is always on the look-out for young talent that inspires. Yesterday, we received a wonderful poem, written by Gracie Sutcliffe, an aspiring writer at twelve (going on twenty-two!) In addition to their other amazing pursuits, Gracie and her Mom, Lucy, have dedicated themselves to helping frenchbulldogrescue.org. They rescue French Bulldogs, nurse them back to health and find ‘forever homes’ for these wondrous beings. Once you’ve met a Frenchie, you will never forget their exuberance, enthusiasm and spirit. They are among the Master Muses of the Dog World as they inspire us to laugh and live joy-fully! They are, quite literally, JOY ON LEGS!
THANKFUL FOR FRENCHIES
By Gracie Sutcliffe
Frenchies are cute,
Frenchies are small,
Frenchies look beautiful
In their sweaters this fall.
They make me smile,
They make me laugh,
They make me giggle,
When I am sad.
From their head to their toe,
Deep in their Soul,
They are filled with laughter and love,
With hearts made of gold.
On this wonderful day,
Let us bow our heads and pray,
That we are thankful for Frenchies,
Every night and all day.

Something To Think About...
Symbol of Reincarnation at the JokhangLhasa Tibet
Life,is not what you see,
but what you've projected.
It's not what you've felt,
but what you've decided.
It's not what you've experienced,
but how you've remembered it.
It's not what you've forged,
but what you've allowed.
And it's not who's appeared,
but who you've summoned.
And this should serve you well,
beloved,
until you find, what you already have.
Yeah,
The Universe

Artist: Annie Griffiths Belt
There is an endless net of threads throughout the universe.
The horizontal threads are in space.
The vertical threads are in time.
At every crossing of the threads,
There is an individual.
And every individual is a crystal bead.
And every crystal bead reflects
Not the light from every other crystal in the net,
But, also every other reflection throughout the entire universe.
