refreshment

i've been hanging out for the last few days with old friends in the theatre community. it's always so wonderful to receive reminders that creating weird, innovative, off-the-wall collaborations can be not only rewarding, but viable. i think that, too often, when you are educated within a certain model (which may still teach you invaluable skills), it can be far too easy for people to bring you down or discourage you from forging your own path. luckily, i have a lot of friends around me who are forging multiple paths, and who i can take inspiration from as i start to map my own. because i will forge a new path, just being careful to be kind to the forest around me as i do so. spring is on its way, and as cliche as it may be, it offers new opportunities for inspiration and growth. namaste, chickadees.
