Some how, some way this incredibly inspiring video landed in my hands. I wanted to post it here in the Fun 'N' Games section to encourage you all (and myself) to be creative with our alone time. To create our own definitions of what lonely, success or creativity looks like to us. I hope you enjoy this wonderful piece of art.

My judge speaks to me all the time. He tells me what I can and can't do. We spoke recently about my creative pursuit of writing and illustrating a comic book about my personal growth experience. Here's how our conversation went…

Sometimes, I am drawn to drawing, welcomed to writing. It's as if I can't help it — I am being called to get that stuff out that's in me, or coming through me.
This feels like inspiration.

Other times, I'm facing creative expression like it's a must. It's my duty. I HAVE to do it because I made a pact with myself. Or else!
This feels like discipline.

Before I became a mother, people were always trying to warn me about how much my life was going to change. In particular, they loved to tell me how they (and, by extension, I) would never again have enough time. “Whether I’m at home or at work, I feel like I never have enough time for anyone,” they’d say. “Never mind finding the time to clean the bathroom.” And time for themselves? “Forget it. I haven’t had time to read a novel since my oldest was born. Ten years ago.”
