Opportunities, Experiences, Awakenings

What is success?
What is failure?

More importantly, is there such thing as either?

I used to believe them both as black and white - you either succeeded at something or you didn't; Failure brought shame and success made you king/queen of the world. This way of thinking wasn't serving me any good and was a terrible way of looking at things. Why I made it so hard for myself, I don't know but if the past few years have taught me anything, it's that success isn't necessarily sweet and failure is never a bad thing therefore neither really exist. They are simply opportunities, experiences, awakenings...anything BUT success or failure.

My most recent awakening has had me contemplating the fate of my Creating Good Karma project. With my creative energies being drawn elsewhere and having learned so much since I started the project two years ago, it feels like an appropriate time to step away to re-evaluate, gain some perspective, and take the time to apply that new-found knowledge and skill. The site will be up and running until I figure out my next move so feel free to stop by. I'm not sure what will come of it in the following months and how it will evolve but I do know that I will find opportunity and continue to artistically express my passion for design and the creation of the greater good.

In the meantime, I encourage my followers, fans, and friends to step forward with any ideas, suggestions, contributions, or requests to help fan the flames of creativity. Until then, I look forward to this new chapter full of lots more great opportunities, experiences, and awakenings.
