Finding your signature in the world

The world today,
Doesn’t make sense.
So why,
Should I,
Think thoughts that do?

I’ve told you before; this is just not what I am looking for.
So what is it that you are looking for?
I can see that you’re getting better. I want to encourage you.
I can’t tell you exactly what I’m looking for, but it’s not this.
Then what? Tell me what to do, and I’ll do it. I’ll do anything.
I can’t tell you. Some people have it; some people don’t.
All that I can tell you that this is a little simplistic.

Ever feel like this scenario is playing out in your life?
Feel like you’re taking two steps forward and one step backwards?
Wonder what to do next?
Feel stuck?

It’s actually a great space to be.
From a space of not knowing what to do,
Could mean anything is possible.
From a space of nothingness,
Everything or
Anything
Could be born,
Designed, and
Created.

Every good artist leaves a piece of themselves on the canvas.
We have to find that one thing that is going to set us apart from the rest of the crowd.
And an unusual medium is not what I’m talking about.
It’s your unique ability, gift or talent—
Each of us must find it—
Find our signature in the world.
