Week 37: Do
Week 37: Do
Hand-drawn illustration based upon an original short story, newly concocted for each week of the year 2022. Comes framed exactly as the pictured example with the story in its entirety inscribed upon the back of the frame.
Time is fleeting
Life is short
Days crawl
Years sprint
Put your energy
Where you want
Spend it in the sun
Toil away indoors
Build things
Help others
Laugh, cry
Work, relax
Breathe, love
Chase desires
And curiosities
Release that which
No longer serves you
Change and grow
For there is much to learn
Much to do
Much to see
Stay not in one place
Physically
Mentally
Emotionally
Invite in the unknown
Listen, reflect
Ask, dare
But most of all
Do
Stop stopping
Let your mind
Roam free
Untethered
The answers you seek
Are waiting
Locked up
Held captive
Inside of you
Anticipating the day
You’ll allow them
To shed their cocoon
To burst free
Gloriously born anew
A new you
Bright, radiant, aloft
In a state
Of which you knew not
Yourself capable
