Creativity is always my outlet in times of despair. I hate to say it, but it was my best art or often, my best writing. When you are in that time or state - it is when you are most vulnerable and honest. It is when you need hope. Creativity brings hope. I am praying for your family.
An honest reflection, Geoff. Creativity is a thing that keeps us alive, even in dark times. It is not a luxury. It is a necessity for life. Very sad (and frightening) hearing about the recent events in Israel. Wishing you well.
Aw thanks for this beautiful post, Geoff. I also took a pause from substack after Oct 7th and only just found it.
A brave piece and a hopeful link to the power of creative force.
