There is no such thing as a rival. If they do threaten or challenge me, it's because they possess or exhibit qualities I'd wish for myself. So, they are an exemplar - a mentor, a path! They are a guide who shows how it can be done. Or, at least that it can be done. They are an ally. There is no such thing as a rival.

Airplane Bathroom Cubist Self Portrait, 2019. Off to @jeanielovetri's Somatic Voicework workshop for what will be an inspiring and challenging nine days. My brain will probably feel like this picture at times.

My own ancestral martial art?!!! I have had the most HILARIOUS morning being introduced to Bartitsu, a martial art invented in the late 19th century by a possible English relative! Maybe I picked the wrong martial art in Aikido... 🥋😂🤣

You'll almost never find an artist who worked in a vacuum. Even Van Gogh turned out to have a strong network of confidants. I'm trying hard to stay connected and remember that art is a social act!

Voice teacher @jeanielovetri advises the urgency of following your intuition, and learning to disengage from patterns (physical and mental) that can impose upon what you do and subvert your intentions. This reminds me of learnings from the psychological practice of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. We have to learn to be mindful of the stories we tell ourselves. We have to try to hear how we feel. We have to trust our own intuition, which in this case could be described as the ability to observe our own actions in a nonjudgmental and honest way. And to trust in our ability to find a better way. Her advice works for any situation that involves the mind and body, really - and surprise surprise, that's everything! (My handwriting translation in the comments!)
