Discover Yourself

"Happy is the man who has found his vocation." So goes the saying. Life is dreadfully boring when you do the same thing over and over again. But when you do something new, bring into the world something that never existed before, when you are creative, you feel a satisfaction that can never turn sour, never fade or go stale. That something is YOU expressed in a way that only you can do, something original and refreshingly new. No method, no formula, no design that you can follow or imitate. Just do that something that best describes you. YOU express YOUR-SELF. That is what this is all about - discovering yourself.
