The Quiet Moments


Life is noise

noise coming and going

distractions, feelings, thoughts

art is the outlet 

art helps the breathing come more easily

what is art?

a picture is worth a thousand words

yet sometimes a thousand words is what it takes

to breathe

to survive

to exist

I think of this in the quiet moments
