Sing Quotes

“We are never anywhere but where we are
even when much of that "where" is
moving in some direction or other
towards somewhere else.
We cannot
--right now--
know more than we know,
have prepared or studied or rehearsed
more than we actually did,
be more beautiful or wiser or wittier
or wealthier or healthier
or stronger or better rested than we actually are.

So go out and sing.
Express your love laid bare and open.
Be the fully imperfect glorious creature that you are.
Dance in the rain.”
― Shellen Lubin

While practicing art, you create something and someone. You create yourself...”
