Sometimes, I find myself amazed by the power of connection. All the invisible lines drawn between us, other people, places, and things that we may not see initially but later feel through the course of time. For me, they can look a bit faded or sketched in at times. So in my life, for better or worse, I have constantly tried to fill in the lines when I see a potential pathway for connection.

Whether a close friend, a kreative I meet on Substack, or a muse I’ve reconnected with, one way I plan to use this platform is to spotlight those who make space for kreativity in their lives.
