Be stubborn and persist, and trust yourself on what you love. You have to trust what you love.

I'm used to working with neglect and misunderstanding, so this has been really challenging. It's a different psychic realm. The Lion did not land easily here.

I assume the senses crave sources of maximum information, that the eye benefits by exercise, stretch, and expansion towards materials of complexity and substance, . . . conditions which alert the total sensibility - cast it almost in stress - extend insight and response, the basic responsive range of empathetic-kinesthetic vitality.

I don't even like the word 'relax'! If I have a partner and we make love a lot, then I'm in a very pure state of being.

Drawing and masturbation were the first sacred experiences I remember.
