I found this on the Journal of #pyraqua78 and I would like to share it too!

There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is
translated through you into action, and because there is only one of
you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it
will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The
world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good
it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It
is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the
channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your
work. You have to keep yourself open and aware to the urges that
motivate you. Keep the channel open. ... No artist is pleased. [There
is] no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer divine
dissatisfaction, a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us
more alive than the others.
