Completed: #5. Participate in an art residency / retreat

"Trust is the spiritual by-product of innocence. My people say that more than lack of knowledge and experience, it's learning to look at the world with wonder. when we do that, we look in a learning way.

Trust, the ability to open yourself to teachings is the gateway for each of us to becoming who we were created to be. 

All things bear teachings. Teachings are hidden in every leaf and rock. But only when we look at the world with wonder do the teachings reveal themselves, and trust is also the ability to put those teachings to work in our lives. 

Trust is, in fact, our first act of faith and our first step towards the principle of courage that will guide us."

-Richard Wagamese, One Story, One Song
