Labor of Love

This morning... 9 hours after I sat down to write last night... I looked at my post-it notes, scratch papers, drawings, sketches, musings, and 3 empty energy drinks... and I saw myself.

A long time ago a friend of mine named Noah gave me a book by Khalil Gibran called "The Prophet"... I read the entire book in one night, and found myself totally transformed the next morning. There was a passage in the book where Gibran commented that "Always you have been told work is a curse and labour a misfortune. But I say to you that when you work you fulfill a part of earth's furthest dream, assigned to you when that dream was born, and in keeping yourself with labour you are in truth loving life..."

Love life. I write to right.

Sincerely,

Me
