If I could chime in on what I’m over and done with as an artist, I’m through with the term “starving artist” and am ready to replace that with “well-fed artist.” A couple of days ago I spoke with a prospective client of mine who was a painter, and within 30 seconds I had heard all the stereotypes of the starving artist.

What do chess and cooking have in common? Admittedly, not much. However, at the height of a hard-fought game of chess, one good move can often tip the balance. Such moves have an effect over the whole of the chessboard and enable all the player’s pieces to function in perfect harmony, whereas the opponent’s pieces are, all of a sudden, in disarray. In cooking it is also often one ingredient that brings harmony to all the flavors. It is the power of the single move, the single ingredient and the single right choice bringing harmony to the whole, which chess, cooking and life have in common.

Have you ever wondered why there is struggle and pain in this human existence? Further, have you ever wondered why we choose at different times in our lives to box with a powerful and awesome Spirit that one could ever encounter in life’s journey? What are you expecting to win? Without a genuine spiritual and true connection to God, one is destined to live in a word of perpetual fog and a void that is so vast in struggle until the manifestation of “stored pain” overwhelms your life. So, you have elected to box with God, go ahead, with your gloves on—”swing!”
