Sue Monk Kidd

Another incredibly inspiring discussion on SS. "What we give our attention to becomes our God". Sue Monk Kidd discusses the how giving our full attention to something (like nature) is a form of meditation. She talks about the importance of the choices we make for these present moments, what we let into our worlds, what we surround ourselves with. "We become what we pay attention to". Some how this take a complex idea and boils it down to such a simply stated belief.

"Nobody ever sees me"...Amanda Palmer sees you.

I heard this on a podcast while driving...it was so profound. I loved it so much that I had to watch it today. Please, if you wonder why your making your art...please watch this. Making art is about connecting to others really...that's the long and short of it. Everything is about feeling deep, real connections.
