• To all the secret writers, late-night painters, would-be singers, lapsed and scared artists of every stripe, dig out your paintbrush, or your flute, or your dancing shoes. Pull out your camera or your computer or your pottery wheel. Today, tonight, after the kids are in bed or when your homework is done, or instead of one more video game or magazine, create something, anything.
  Pick up a needle and thread, and stitch together something particular and honest and beautiful, because we need it. I need it.
  Thank you, and keep going.
