Build A Creative House

Colombian artist Miler Lagos’s Contemporary art installation titled “HOME.” This installation is a self-supporting book igloo using nothing more than carefully aligned books, no glue. This art was on display at Magnan Metz Gallery in New York City 2011. The book house is a symbol of possibilities and dreams made real.

Everything is possible. Build your house with plans, constant work and passion.

You have a unique purpose on this earth. People will tell you to give up and take classes in something practical, I say you need to have a job that sustains the heat and food but spend your forty hours a week on your craft.

What are you working on?

Sunflowers in my yard keep the bees working all day. Don't let setbacks take over.

The message sounded positive the first time I read it on a subject of an unknown person's mail. How many of these emails are you receiving? My email flow daily is about 200- 300 in one of my accounts and this particular pitch has increased to about 30+ per day. If there a way to block incoming messages by the subject?

Am I just being over sensitive in the digital world? My days seem to race past in a blur. I manage and treasure my time for writing, job and family.
