Deepak Chopra notices in The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, that giving and receiving is essential to the flow of life. As artists, everytime we create it can be a struggle to let our beauty flow out into the world. Humans and artists, for they are really one in the same, are naturally affluent and filled with abundance. (Chopra) Remember, always, that every life is meant to scatter joy, in all the diverse, interesting, ways that we are all diverse and interesting. Giving to the circle of kindness is what will bring kindness back. Giving to the circle of creativity will bring creativity back. If I can be candid, I have never met more selfless and giving souls as that of artists and parents. Artists have a innate knowing that the more joy they scatter by selling and giving away their works, the more joy they feel and the creativity intensifies. Given, in my look at life, I feel all humans create and are artists in some way, therefore, the more knowledge they know about themselves, the more they feel free to give with ease, joy, and compassion. The best way to get to know themselves better is to create a sacred space, a nest, in reality or inside themselves (preferably both). To do this, first intend that kindness is the ultimate goal. Without kindness, you will not treat yourselves with the compassion needed to feel welcomed into your own sacred space. If you have unexplored thoughts and emotions and try to create, there can be a block to the love you will spread with your art. Give yourself time. Take ten minutes and only allow kind, abundant, joyous, thoughts into your mind and your sacred space. It is transformative. You will be ready to create and therefore, scatter joy.
