In a world where the courage to do what’s right is often met with silence, misunderstanding, or indifference, the true challenge isn’t just starting well it’s staying faithful when the applause never comes. In my latest piece, “Why You Can’t Grow Weary Now,” I explore why perseverance in goodness matters, how quiet acts of courage shape change, and why staying committed, even in the face of resistance, is one of the most radical forms of leadership today. Read on to discover how steadfastness, faith, and purpose can transform the way you lead and serve.
This site is a holistic media endeavor. Soon, it will be opened up to even more minds and opinions. That is not only how community meets the moment, but art. Art and media are two conjoined halves in my opinion. They function best when they’re interdependent. In our politically charged society we have the opportunity to mine the fields for problems and see where art can tell a different story and advance a better future.
In our politically charged society, we have the opportunity to mine the landscape for problems and explore where art can tell new stories. I taught a workshop on technology and art for the Women’s Caucus for Art a couple of years ago. I am an advocate for digital tools, artificial intelligence, and digital art and sales. I believe there are not only creative, but fiscal, opportunities available within this genre.
Traditional Art Practices
While in-person engagement with art is increasing and traditional forms remain a mainstay of the status quo, the digital world is still evolving. There is as much possibility there as the mind can imagine, and I champion it. Throughout history, art has always faced attack. Artists are close to the Creator —they bring forth the unseen. That is a great deal of power.
So will art survive the moment with integrity and dignity? Of course they will. They are the moment.
It’s also comforting to know that artists still retain control over what they make and how they choose to say it. Artists are needed. Art is the baseline of all innovation, while words shape the language around it. Together, they form the rhetorical world-building pillars of society.
If I had a question, it would be this: how will art rise to the occasion? How will it shape new narratives? Through UNESCO we can study cultural globally and how to preserve it, yet what arw futurists envisioning now? We have spent a fair amount of time uncovering problems and successfully answering some of them. How do we take it a step further while building our own magical society? That is the power of art. I will always be a believer in the small steps. The small details. The small wins.
I believe in each brick that carefullt builds out our daily dreams and lives.
If you have been on the fence. If you were unsure about how to make the change or if you should make that change–now is the time.
I have a knack for seeing what is coming down the road and it is a mixed bag that will require a strong mental fortitude. It will be a season of faith for many people going forward.
We are still rebuilding and we all have a role to play in this moment. The biggest one is to be sober minded, community oriented, and family focused.
In the midst of challenges, trials, and uncertainty people of great faith will witness unbelievable things.
We are gearing up our stories here at CAM and working on preserving and educating people on some rich cultural heritage.
You and your family may not make it around the world but that does not mean you can’t be global citizens.
The people that love you teach you how to fish and encourage you all the way to the finish line. While life may be imperfect there is always friend, a family, an organization, or a tribe willing to help. After you get help, it’s your turn to encourage another across that finish line.
