Have you ever read The Gift? It’s a modern classic on art and creativity recommended to me by one of my tribal elders, Janet Riehl.
This is yet another tome that I would have highlighted to death (had it not been a library book). But it got me thinking about the intersection of art and commerce—in which I live. It got me thinking about the difference between gifts and purchases and the exchange of energy and goods. Not to get all intellectual-spiritual on you but where I landed was this…
In all of human history, there has always been a distinction between people in our tribe/community versus those just passing through. There are benefits for tribe members because we have a connection—a sense that what benefits one, benefits all.
It’s in this spirit that I’m starting Share Sunday, where I’ll be sharing the gift of art to our tribe. Everyone that opts in (sign up below), will get a new printable quote on the first Sunday of every month. And in this way, we’ll be connected. I’ll share occasional updates and gifts for members and invite you to share what’s up for you.
Welcome to the tribe!
