in the basement

twenty years 

makes

“Perfection is a twenty ton shield that we carry around thinking it will protect us when, in fact, it’s the thing that is preventing us from taking flight.”  Brene Brown

"The creative process is a process of surrender, not control.”

*Ah, the freedom, in letting go.
