Creative autonomy.

Creative autonomy.

"If you want to work on your art,
work on your life."
-Anton Chekhov

Settling into the natural state,
rest in the nature of mind:
calm, peaceful, clear,
simply resting in open, alert presence.

Notice the stillness.
Notice the movement within stillness.
Notice the stillness within movement.

Nothing to do,
simply rest in the still center of becoming.

This is the ground of your creative autonomy,
the space from which you discover natural freedom:
the freedom to be, to choose, to act, to respond.

The world around you is a canvas,
the day ahead is a blank page.
What will you create?
