Today we mourn a man who defined courage & integrity:

“As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn't leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I'd still be in prison.” Nelson Mandela

How can you make your purpose real? There are a million ways. The better question is how are you likely to get in your own way?

When was the last time you took yourself on an "Artist Date"?

An Artist Date is Julia Cameron's term for "a block of time, perhaps two hours weekly, especially set aside and committed to nurturing your creative consciousness, your inner artist."

It can (and should) be something *you* love to do. And it doesn't need to cost very much money (In fact, in some ways, it shouldn't...this is about spending quality time with yourself) What would make you smile? Glitter glue? A new journal? A barefoot walk on a beach? Go for it -- Plan an artist date with yourself tomorrow. What will you do?
