I saw this on somebody's blog today.
I just can't remember who's words they are.
But trust me ...
I was so impressed and loved it so much
that I just had to share.
Aren't these words just perfect?
Not just for today, Thanksgiving Day,
but every day of the year if you are an artist.

in this world
that wakes up every morning,
goes to a job they hate,
just to come home and do it all over again.
