• My Book Review on: The Mastery of Love by Don Miguel Ruiz

    A Toltec is an artist of Love,
    an artist of the Spirit,
    Someone who is creating every moment,
    every second, the most beautiful art –

    then we can create our life with Love
    and our dream becomes
    a masterpiece of art.

    In a way, it’s like falling in love: We pour every bit of ourselves behind our art and creative business, so it’s inevitable… to wonder “What if it all fails?”. Especially since our art comes from such a personal place inside ourselves, we become so terribly afraid. And we end up getting lost – in our own creative fears.
