What's In A Name?

Ok, so, since the last post, I Googled "Create For Life", cre84life, etc. and there's a whole heap of other people using this phrase.  Not that I thought I was being original or anything.  Rather, it captured the essence of what we try to do.

Firstly, we create, we bring our thoughts and visions to life through art.  Why? to bring that which is vital, alive, motivating, life giving, to the world.  That's what our Creator did.  It's our inherent drive.  I don't have time to find out what's behind the same phrase used countless times over.  But it's what we should be doing.  It's a banner, a vision through the heat of battle when we loose focus because of the mundane.  It's a call to arms - it should stir us to action.

I've seen first hand the discouraged artist inflamed again, where courage takes a grip - you can see it in their eyes, then in the work they do.  And our Creator delights.  It's for Him, after all...
