It's all about perspective...





I thought about writing a more in depth version of the perspective I have been gaining my whole life but really just clicked more recently. It is very hard for me to wrap my brain around the awful devastation that has happened to Haiti. And it was very hard for me to sit with families today discussing the importance of the smallest most insignificant details that meant nothing and I felt like the families were too self-involved to care about anything outside of their house and that was difficult for me to take. How much patience do you expect me to have when you say you want help but you really don't? My perspective; I can only help those that truly want it, and even then sometimes I can't. Also, gratitude. gratitude. gratitude. I found myself asking, how can you not be grateful? Yes, we have all gone through some things, and some have been through far worse, but everyone is figuring it out on their own and I hope that we can continue to come together for support but also for perspective, and gratitude. Regardless, here is some art work I have done and feel like it's time for a little inspiration...
