Conversation with a dream , by G.R.

I.H.: Thank you for the TLC.

Me: Thank you for the inspire.

I.H.: Before you move forward with me, there really are some things you should understand.

Me: I’m listening.

I.H.: I know you see me, I know you know that core of who I am. But, to truly experience me, and see me to fruition, it’s going to take years, literally years, to accomplish. Surely you realize this. View the sides of my road and they’re meeting at the horizon. You are fully aware of this. Even so, are you still willing to know me?

Me: Yes

I.H.: Imagine the total amount of energy you predict it will take to see me through. Imagine that to the best of your ability. Now, multiply that by ten and maybe, just maybe you’d be near the range of what that will actually be. Am I still in your heart?

Me: Yes

I.H.: I’m as large and strong as a mountain, and yet, at the same time, I’m as fragile as fine glass. Are you prepared to embrace the woven duality that is me?

Me: Yes

I.H.: Welcome to me. Let’s do it.

Me: Likewise, let’s go.

“Unspecial” by G.R.

When you feel unspecial

know that it’s friction

between what you want and what may be,

a very temporary condition.

 

When you feel unspecial

whether or not it made you cry

whether they told you or you told you,

know that it’s a lie.

 

When you feel unspecial

of who you are it’s not even a fraction.

Learn from the tension.

It’s a call for action.

 

When you feel unspecial

know that it’s an illusion

clouding your potential.

Don’t let it cause confusion.

 

When you feel unspecial

your heart knows it’s not true.

Open the mind and listen.

Give some love back to you.

“Because” by G.R.

I create because

dreams deserve to breath.

 

I create because

optimism refuses to leave

 

I create because

the heart desires to share

 

I create because

even those I’ve never met show they care

 

I create because

ideas provide the path’s light

 

I create because

goals are always in sight

 

I create because

my desire has clarity and precision

 

I create because

effort makes tangible the vision

 

I create because

my soul has a voice

 

I create because

every moment presents a choice

 

I create because

I see possibility’s gift

 

I create because

my heart savors the lift

 

I create because

my dreams will never be lonely

 

I create because

I refuse to say “If only”

“Anything” by G.R.

Like the furthest feather

on the tip of an eagle’s wing.

 

I feel I can do anything today.

I feel like I can do anything.

 

Like the highest note

a voice can sing.

 

I feel I can do anything today.

I feel like I can do anything.

 

Like the precious joy

a kind word can bring.

 

I feel I can do anything today.

I feel like I can do anything.

 

Our dreams are not elusive.

I wear them like a ring.

 

I feel I can do anything today.

I feel like I can do anything.

“Create” by G.R.

What is now I may be.

What is now is temporary.

What I do reaches for what I imagine.

What I imagine is greater than what I see.

If I didn’t, I wouldn’t be me.

Drawing #65 Revisited: Before & After

If you’ve followed my development art postings for a while then you already know I’m a huge fan of “before & after” postings of art & the creative process- not just my own but others as well. I love seeing the “before & after” postings of my fellow creatives on Twitter.

Here’s another “before & after” from me: Drawing #65 Revisited

Drawing #65 is a panel from one of the comic book pages of  “Internal Hero Presents” the webcomic. 

The webcomic “Internal Hero Presents” has begun with the adventures on the hero Moonwill!
