i was editing sculpture photos earlier, and i was wondering why. why i was bothering. the world is burning, people and animals and trees are dying, we're all trying not to drown in despair. why am i making sculptures and bothering to make sure their photos are accurate and why do i care?

and then i realised that it's the caring that makes us human. it's the creating and the trying to make the world better and more beautiful that will save what's left, if anything will. and they're what will save us too.

so to all of you, i just want to say please keep doing what you're doing. please keep making things and trying and putting whatever it is that makes you you into the world. we all need it. and we all need you.
