Paint ON!!

Life can bring you sorrow.
Paint on!

Life can dish out so much joy and cheerfulness that you revel in it and forget yourself.
Paint on!
It has so much in store for you everyday.
It will make you breathless one moment
and suck the wind out of you the next.
As you walk through it all
do not forget the most important message
and
Paint on!

Easy to forget to do it.
Easy to get caught up in the ramblings and the wanderings of a day.
Easy to have a to do list choke you
or send you in circles
of errands and running between commitments.
Paint on!

We have all forgotten ourselves.
We have erased a list after each task or even better
put lines through individual achievements.
That list is crippling.
Somethings like
Get a Degree
or 
Educate your children
Take years.
Read the Classics.
Another one that is endless.

I prefer to head my list each day with 
Paint on!
And then that task is the overwhelming one.
It is the one that pushes me forward
and never ends.
That is the one that want to consume me
and direct me.
That is the one that is the driver and the force.

Do not let everything else get on your list first.
Paint on!
