“Dismantle the masks, mental games, grips, and all other illusionary ways you might gather like wool to safely cushion your skin. Step into your world with all the truth, love, and courage you can. Freedom comes after constriction. Sanctuaries crave the open hearted. Amazing loves the vulnerable.” ~Victoria Erickson

Art by Christian Schloe

Dandelions, Few words are enough to disclose you, You lose your shield, now you are naked, Your mind is free but you are not afraid. Teach me.

Art and words by Aquasixio

“This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There is no time for despair, no place for self-pity, no need for silence, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. That is how civilizations heal.” ~Toni Morrison

Art by Rovina Cai

“There is a woman at the beginning of all great things.” ~Alphonse de Lamartine

Art by Miles Toland

“The world without spirit is a wasteland. People have the notion of saving the world by shifting things around, changing the rules, and who’s on top, and so forth. No, no! Any world is a valid world if it’s alive. The thing to do is to bring life to it, and the only way to do that is to find in your own case where the life is and become alive yourself.” ~Joseph Campbell

Berlin Street Art

“I am seeking, I am striving, I am in it with all my heart.” ~Vincent Van Gogh
