Answer 2

"I've never known anybody to acheive anything without overcoming adversity."

"Being perfect is about being able to look you team in the eye and know that you did not let them down, because you told them the truth. And the truth is that you did everything that you could. There wasn't one more thing that you could have done."

"All your life you are told the things you cannot do. All your life they will say you are no good enough, or strong enough, or talented enough, they will say you are the wrong height, or the wrong weight, or the wrong type to play this or be this or acheive this. They will tell you no. a thousand times no... until all the no's become meaningless. All your life they will tell you no, and you will firmly and quickly tell them YES!"

"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."

Dance Genesis 1:1 - 1:15

And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he sparated the light from the darkness. God called the light “spots” and the darkness he called “to-black.” And there was dinner, and there was sleep — the first day.

And God said, “Let there be an expanse between the wings to separate wing from wing.” So God made the expanse and separated the wing on the left from the wing on the right. And it was so. God called the expanse “stage.” And there was a dinner, and there was sleep — the second day.

And God said, “Let the surface of the stage be dry and forgiving, and let the soda stay gathered in bottles.” And it was so. God called the stage surface “marley” and the gathered soda he called “Coke.” And God saw that it was good.

And God said, “Let the people produce Art: music and dance on the stage to provoke thought, according to their various needs.” And God saw that it was good. And there was tech, and there was morning, and there was no sleep — the third day.

And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the house, and let them serve as signs to mark the beginning of the season, and let them draw the people in.” And it was so. God made the two great house lights dim and he set a lesser light on the stage. God saw that it was good and called it the “premier,” and it fell on the evening of the fourth day.

And God caused his chosen director to appear upon the stage, and the director was within the spot light that God set upon the stage. God’s director welcomed the people, and made an appeal to the masses for membership and tithing. God saw the donations and was much relieved.

And God caused his chosen director to leave the stage, and parted the mighty walls of velvet curtains so that the people might enjoy the stage. And God saw that the performance had begun, and it was good.

And God said to the reporters who gathered after the show, “We need a name for this show — let it be called Genesis. Who? Oh her! That dancer is Eve.”

Artist's Creed

I believe I am worth the time it takes to create
whatever I feel called to create.
I believe that my work is worthy of its own space,
which is worthy of the name Sacred.
I believe that, when I enter this space, I have the right
to work in silence, uninterrupted, for as long as I choose.
I believe that the moment I open myself to the gifts of the Muse,
I open myself to the Source of All Creation
and become One With the Mother of Life Itself.
I believe that my work is joyful, useful and constantly changing,
flowing through me like a river with no beginning and no end.
I believe that what it is I am called to do
will make itself known when I have made myself ready.
I believe that the time I spend creating my art
is as precious as the time I spend giving to others.
I believe that what truly matters in the making of art
is not what the final piece looks like or sounds like,
not what it is worth or not worth, but what
newness gets added to the universe in the process
of the piece itself becoming.
I believe that I am not alone in my attempts to create,
and that once I begin the work, settle into the strangeness,
the words will take shape, the form find life, and the spirit take flight.
I believe that as the Muse gives to me,
so does she deserve from me:
faith, mindfulness and enduring commitment.
