Keep rising, Ryan. Sun, stars, moon, clouds… they all have their place and so do you. If this was just writing and not your voice of now, I hope you’re smiling. 🙂

Ryan, you’ve managed to capture that keen sense of “the struggle”. I don’t know if it’s the same for everyone, but quite profound for the artist. Your writing is excellent as always. Please enjoy the rest of your weekend. ~ Mia

I’m so happy to see the “extremity” in you as well. Love it! Sonedays I’m overflowing, other days not even a trickle. Something like that! 🙂

Isn’t it wonderful that our “challenge” does not always “roar”? Gosh, I don’t know where I would be if I had to preform 24/7-365(6) … (times a bunch more numbers unknown to me yet) 😀
Great one my friend!
