Matthew. I am speechless. This is so beautifully written and what an incredible journey you have been on. And yes, you have me thinking :-) about what brave creativity means for me. It's those moments, where everything can feel intimidating, overwhelming, even frightening. Where it feels completely beyond us, yet we still make the choice to create, taking a chance on ourselves. And with each step of creativity, it becomes a little less intimidating. Where we discover that everything we thought that was going to be hard was actually the most joy we've found in a really long time. And the most freeing.
Because brave creativity - for me - comes from doing the things I thought I couldn't.
Thank you Matthew for such a beautiful peace and for the reminder - to keep creating.
Have to admit I'm also a bit speechless in response to this! Thank you for such kind words. And I'm so glad you give me another perspective on what brave creativity can mean. I particularly love, "Where we discover that everything we thought that was going to be hard was actually the most joy we've found in a really long time." Indeed. Please keep creating!
🥰 i woke up at 5.30am filled by all sorts of anxiety that i know stems from what’s happening in Gaza right now. Not knowing what else to do i picked up my phone and saw this writing from you. You are a bright shining light in this darkness. Thank you 🙏🏾
Wow. What a compliment to receive on my very first story from Bright Side Writings. I’m so glad my words managed to ‘reach you’ in such a way. And in addition, thank you Pooja, for letting me know they did!
I love this Matt. So many memories. You are and always have been an inspiration. Love your work.
So kind of you Bina. Thank you many times over.
