“If we do not transform our pain, we will most assuredly transmit it” -Richard Rohr
Everything that happens, everything we experience, especially our suffering, can fuel our art.
And if we’re lucky, that art might someday alleviate suffering for others.
What a mighty gift and privilege we’re given as artists.
How we use it is up to us.
Richard Rohr sure knows what he’s talking about. Thanks for sharing this one Johnny

You’re welcome Kurt. Yes, he’s great. FALLING UPWARD is a terrific book as is THE ART OF LETTING GO. His Center For Action And Contemplation does great stuff too.
