Born Today?

Your Year of Showing Up Alight. This is the year you learn that your presence is the creative act, that the room changes temperature when you walk in fully and stay there. A question you have been turning over for a long while finally lands somewhere real this spring, because you stopped trying to solve it and started living next to it. By midsummer, something you make without straining to make it good turns out to be the best thing you have done. People keep telling you that you brought a project to life, and what they mean is that you were simply there, all the way there. It might be worth setting down the urge to measure yourself by what you produce. The year wants the warmth you carry, not the output you grind for. Walk in alight and let the work follow your attention. It always does.
