Winding Down (or some approximation thereof)

Maybe this is the beauty of existing in a creative field. The winding down of one thing is the birth and generation of another. It’s something I’ve learned during pregnancy: to create something new requires constant attention and energy. I might not always be conscious of it, but my body is directing all of its resources to developing this new human being. I think as artists, we must do the same. Because to cease is counter to the processes of life.
