THE LEARNING HUB: Life happens.

Life happens.

And it happens fast.

Life happens over years and at times it happens within a split second.

Life hits harder than anyone can.

It hits so hard that your lungs cry out for air, making you realize how precious Life is.

Yet Life is so tender.

It leaves you speechless.

It has you yearning for more. More tenderness. More love. More of the good.

Our moments that make up Life colour us.

It colours us with joy. Happiness.

Some moments in life leave you breathless..

Some moments change you.

Moments are like windows we look through.

Some frozen, some clear, some half open.

There are many things in my life that I wish I could take back.

Many moments I would recast.

But I know it will then change my life forever. The direction. The purpose. The now.

Life is all about moments. Not days. Not weeks. Not years. Don’t wait for them, create them.

We have moments of truth when we are tested, decisions that have to be made, or even a crisis that has to be faced.

Some moments shine like precious diamonds.

And then there are those moments when the world moves so slowly you can feel your bones shifting, your mind tumbling..

And you catch yourself savoring the moments. In the end, they are the only things we'll have.

We never can just stop time. Or Life. Or take moments back.

But that’s the trouble with moments—they end.

And that’s the trouble with Life – it ends.

In the midst of turmoil, I found my unshakeable anchor in God

In the midst of turmoil, I found my unshakeable anchor in God. He was my rock, my fortress, and my savior all at once. Whenever I felt overwhelmed, I would run to Him for refuge, knowing that He would protect me from harm. His presence was my shield, deflecting the arrows of adversity, and His power was the horn of my salvation, announcing victory over my struggles. In my darkest moments, I would cry out to the Lord, who is worthy of all praise and honor. And every time, He would deliver me from the clutches of my enemies - whether they were physical, emotional, or spiritual. He was my stronghold, my place of safety, and my guiding light in the darkness. Through every trial and tribulation, I learned to trust in God's unwavering love and protection. He was my rock, my foundation, and my salvation - and I knew that with Him by my side, I could face anything that came my way. ~ 𝓙𝓸𝓾𝓻𝓷𝓮𝔂 𝓸𝓯 𝓛𝓲𝓯𝓮 The Learning Hub 2024

THE LEARNING HUB: When you wake up in the morning...

When you wake up in the morning, tell yourself: the people I deal with today will be meddling, ungrateful, arrogant, dishonest, jealous and surly. They are like this because they can't tell good from evil. But I have seen the beauty of good, and the ugliness of evil, and have recognized that the wrongdoer has a nature related to my own - not of the same blood and birth, but the same mind, and possessing a share of the divine. And so none of them can hurt me. No one can implicate me in ugliness. Nor can I feel angry at my relative, or hate him. We were born to work together like feet, hands and eyes, like the two rows of teeth, upper and lower. To obstruct each other is unnatural. To feel anger at someone, to turn your back on him: these are unnatural. ~Marcus Aurelius Book: Meditations https://amzn.to/3qjadxq (Art: Painting by Maximilien Luce)

THE LEARNING HUB: All Art Is A Work In Progress

All art is a work in progress. It’s helpful to see the piece we’re working on as an experiment. One in which we can’t predict the outcome. Whatever the result, we will receive useful information that will benefit the next experiment. If you start from the position that there is no right or wrong, no good or bad, and creativity is just free play with no rules, it’s easier to submerge yourself joyfully in the process of making things. We’re not playing to win, we’re playing to play. And ultimately, playing is fun. Perfectionism gets in the way of fun. A more skillful goal might be to find comfort in the process. To make and put out successive works with ease. ~Rick Rubin (Book: The Creative Act: A Way of Being https://amzn.to/44E84Mw) (Art: Photograph of painter René Magritte at work in his living room, 1964)
