Look out the window now and again, you never know what you'll see :-)
Maybe its time to start painting skies again.
I'm still reading Japanese poetry and it will form the basis of some sort of work this year. Matsuo Basho was the most famous writer of haikus ever and specialised in finding the beauty and the wisdom that exists in tiny observations. One of his poems translates as follows, give or take:
Clouds now and again
give a soul some respite from
moon-gazing— behold
This was one of the times when he was just plain wrong. Clouds won't give any respite if you're a dreamer, they give you just as much to gaze at and daydream about as the moon ever will.
