Dreaming is the heart of creativity. It is a way to visualise the thing that I want to bring into the world. I have found that if I do not take the time to dream and vision before I create, then I end up creating someone else’s vision. Whether I intend to or not.

These days - in addition to changing roles, the constant change of students, and changes in my body (another story for another day) I am reflecting on the reality that - change is hard. For something that is constant in life (and sometimes more constant than others) I feel like I should have a handle on it by now. And yet - every time I have to make huge changes, I am reminded of why people stay in situations they are uncomfortable in - instead of making changes.

And it’s me. I am people.
