Make Good

What will you do with the cards you’ve been dealt?

The set-backs, the hard knocks, the trauma, the abuse?

What will you make of them?

How will they inform your perspective on life?

Maybe your past didn’t afford you any favours.

Maybe your present feels like blow after blow and you can’t catch a break.

I’m here to tell you: Don’t give up. Don’t let up. Don’t hole up.

The world needs you and everything you bring to the table.

So turn your pain into action. Turn your frustration into action. Turn your anger into action.

Whatever you do, don’t hold it in. Make art. Make music. Create beauty.

Work hard. Launch projects. Make good.

Metabolize that stuff out of your system in positive, meaningful, and life-affirming ways.

Again, I ask: What will you do with the cards you’ve been dealt?

Love and light and healing to you, beloveds.
