Julia Cameron quotes about
anger meant-to-be
Anger is meant to be acted upon. It is not meant to be acted out.
spiritual commitment emotional
Enthusiasm is not an emotional state. It is a spiritual commitment, a loving surrender to our creative process. Enthusiasm - from the Greek, filled with God - is an ongoing energy supply tapped into the flow of life itself.
retirement art careers
Art is one of the few careers without a mandatory retirement age.
creativity creative pages
Creativity is always a leap of faith. You're faced with a blank page, blank easel, or an empty stage.
quality treadmills
There is a treadmill quality to workaholism.
spiritual special different
Far from making me feel different and special, my [spiritual] experiences made me feel the same, ordinary, and interconnected. If I felt more spiritual, everyone else felt more spiritual as well. (276)
spiritual pain writing
While there is no quick fix for instant, pain-free creativity, creative recovery (or discovery) is a teachable, trackable spiritual process. Each of us is complex and highly individual, yet there are common recognizable denominators to the creative recovery process.
life love-is oxygen
Love is not love if it compelled by reason and driven by logic - love exists in spite of those things, not because of them. It is a emotion which needs no fuel to fire it or oxygen to feed it; if you have to look for the why, then stop looking; it was never there at all.
parenting loss answers
We go into parenting, and we discover that we don't have the answers. We are at a loss.
work block addiction
Workaholism is an addiction, and like all addictions, it blocks creative energy.
water levels
Water seeks its own level and water rises collectively
dream courage admitting
Each of us has an inner dream that we can unfold if we will just have the courage to admit what it is, and the faith to trust our own admission. The admitting is often very difficult.
beautiful fashion loss
I ask to be made beautiful like the trees are beautiful, each growing according to a unique plan. Lop off a limb and and the tree will accommodate it's loss, still growing and still beautiful. It is my hope to be able to flourish in a similar fashion, taking on the shape and dimensions that is intended for me.
creativity sculpture composition
In dance, in composition, in sculpture, the experience is the same: we are more the conduit than the creator of what we express.
