The most valuable real estate in the world is the graveyard. There lie millions of half-written books, ideas never launched, and talents never developed. Most people die with everything still inside of them.*
Derek Sivers
So often the affirmation we receive is merely a byproduct of what’s been true for a long time.**
Gabe Anderson
There’s an eBook to put together,
Collaging to play with, and a linocut kit to try out–
They’re not huge things, but who knows
what they will produce
or where they will lead?
Affirmation from others lies further down the line,
And will most likely be redundant
by the time it arrives,
Because we’re affirming ourselves this morning,
To begin what it is we have a heart and mind for.
