World Art Day.

We often think of artists as the most prominent musicians, painters, and sculptors. We think of artists as the gifted ones, the chosen ones, who were born with this "je ne sais quoi" that makes them different and unique.

I firmly believe that we are all born with exceptional talents; we are all gifted and unique. The difference between artists and the rest of the world is that artists listen to their inner voices. They develop the ability to shut the outside world's noise and look inside them to find and share their art with us. Artists do not care to be loved and valued; they care about creating and being authentic to their true selves.

So, for those who think you do not have it in you to be an artist, listen to your inner voice and create, forget what the world might think of you. We are born to paint this world with the colors of our hearts. In this creation process, we fill our souls with passion and bliss. And by doing so, we confirm that the World will be a better place when we all realize that we each have something special to give, something that will make this life a little brighter.
