The Errand

You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a fine spirit of hope of achievement. You are here to enrich the world and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.

-Woodrow Wilson

I am so glad that this resonated with someone other than myself. I have struggled with the idea lately of painting pretty pictures. Yet, I see it is the errand given to me.

Wonderful reminder of our goal in this lifetime. And there is nothing wrong with creating beauty in a world that often lacks it - so keep creating!
