Decided late last year to stop delaying gratification

[Fresh_Start]

didn't give things for gifts...gave experiences instead

just came home from a ballet performance (gift to mom).
The beauty just overwhelmed me....

a dozen artists (small local company) from north america, south america, caribbean, europe and asia....collaborating to produce an ephemeral thing of exiquisite beauty.

My soul needed nourishment, I feel better already.

1. The thing I find amazing about all forms of art

is their exquisiteness. The entire creative phenomenon is so under appreciated. Sometimes we experience it profoundly and that is always a good thing. Thanks!

2. Another one of my gifts was tickets to Hamilton for my son

and myself.

Just like today, I felt that everyone who left the theater after the performance was moved beyond their expectation.

I'm just in awe of the power of art.
