My Tube...You Tube

 

I've played around with YouTube once before a few years ago. My experience is quite limited, but I'm looking to change that ASAP!

 

I posted a video with a drawing from an art show that I had about 2 years ago and that was it. I used the video recorder on my Canon snapshot camera. The quality wasn't horrible, but it was by no means great. So this time around I would like to do things a bit differently.

 

I want to get started like yesterday, and although in admit I should learn a few things first, I believe this process is part of what in want to share with you all.

 

I am an artist! I am an artist who is on this amazing journey to help myself and others. I am an artist who is looking for my artistic community, my artistic niche...one I belong in! And that is exactly what my channel will be about. A wild ride of lots of ups and some downs and ultimately victory because I am doing exactly what I was built and created to do!

 

I hope you will come along...share the enjoyment, laughter, and perhaps the occasional cry. The ride is sure to be epic just as life is if we look at it through the proper lenses!

Your Thoughts:
Do you have a YouTube channel? What was your reason for starting your channel? What tips do you have for those that are just getting started?

Until next time...

 

Being Aware...

 

It's funny...I had in mind all weekend to tell you good people all about something that I am going to be embarking on and all that happened since the last time I posted last. However, events from this morning changed all of that.

 

A dear sister-friend lost her father yesterday. My heart aches for her as I remember all too well the dreadful day when I lost my own. She will inevitably go through an assortment of feelings. I pray that she and her family receive an abundance of love and support, but the feeling that I pray remains present most is the overwhelming peace that only God could supply!

 

It made me increasingly aware of the need to pursue my purpose with an undeniable passion. It made me know that every moment is a moment to do something great, and that great can be large or small!  It reminded me to be my authentic self regardless of the cost. It reminded me to love fiercely, forgive regularly and live without regret!

 

So I encourage you my friends to live without fear from here on out! Have the courage to do great things, mess up, get up, and start all over again if need be. Complete your process (whatever that process may be), and enjoy the ride (although sometimes bumpy) while doing it! Success is not always about completing a project, but the lessons you learn, people you meet, and the contributions you make to this beautiful Earth while on the journey!

More than enough for the day

Pearls of Wisdom:
"Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself - and especially to feel. Or not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is."
~Jim Morrison

Your Thoughts:
What is the thing that helps you remember to live each moment with purpose and without regret?

Until next time...
