You have nothing to prove, and everything to offer to other concerned citizens of this planet. There will always be the naysayers who will use the "religion/ ethical" card to silence a voice which someone else really needs to hear. As artists we must create moments of beauty in a world besieged by tragedy. We must be thankful for life as it comes to us, and be engaged within the community where we live. We constantly sift through data to find value and meaning that affects us all. We are the interpreters of the past, the speakers for the present, and the visionaries of the future.
