Today is Tuesday,
February 4th,
2025.
It's 11.
52am.
I'm about to say something that Steph,
You are not going to believe later.
That you probably won't believe.
That you're going to have doubts about.
But I really need you to listen to me this time.
This is the very first time that you've ever spoken to yourself about this and in this way.
In fact,
It's the very first time that you've really spoken to yourself like this about anything.
You are an artist.
Steph,
You are an artist and you make beautiful things.
I know.
I know what you're thinking.
Well,
Nobody has seen it yet.
It hasn't really been shared yet.
I know you're thinking if people really looked at this stuff,
Nobody would really like it.
It's not worth anything to anyone.
From this moment on,
It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks about your art,
Steph.
You make beautiful things.
You are putting beautiful things out into the world.
Your paintings are beautiful.
And beauty has value.
Beauty has a value that cannot be monetized.
It is beyond that.
It transcends it.
The world is dark.
And this beauty that you're putting out into the world is not.
You are an artist.
And you make beautiful things.
Say,
I am an artist.
And I make beautiful things.
I am an artist.
And I make beautiful things.
I really am an artist.
And I make beautiful things.
Don't stop making beautiful things.
It does not matter.
It does not matter who sees them.
Or when people see them.
Or how.
Or why.
You make beautiful things.
And the beauty that you are seeing is inspiring you.
I make beautiful things.
And they inspire me.
I make beautiful things.
And they inspire me.
I am an artist.
And I make beautiful things.
Beautiful things.
