Here it is - today's #MomentOfEncouragement
"Remember: It costs nothing to encourage an artist, and the potential benefits are staggering. A pat on the back to an artist now could one day result in your favorite film, or the cartoon you love to get stoned watching, or the song that saves your life. Discourage an artist, you get absolutely nothing in return, ever."

I've been so inspired by this quote from Bill Watterson, the creator of Calvin and Hobbes, and the comic visualization of it by Gavin Aung (aka) #ZenPencils

I get a lot of inspiration from this #ZenPencils comic

Today I joined a Zen introduction session. And I'm a bit tired in some strange way.
Today I wore sweatpants for the first time (I can remember) in possibly more than 25 years. I'm a jeans kind of guy. (It's in my jeans) Sorry.
For no reason other than that my mind brought it up, please read through https://zenpencils.com, for example:
