Love it. Of course u were the first and probably only person planning one of your amusing essays while doing yoga. I rarely miss reading your entertaining thought provoking posts. Thanks for sharing them!
Thanks so much for this Danny. I've felt this way for a long time but it's so rare that you get it reflected back. Self acceptance can really be tough.❤️
Great essay, Danny, Thank You. So if say we're alike in many ways, what I mean is we have a few similarities but we're totally different. I had to look up what namaste meant and what lululemons was about. We English aren't familiar with those words, although namaste rang a bell but I still didn't know what it meant. So your Essay this week was educational in literary terms as well as in an artistic update (how many artists copy others or do the same thing!) As the Bible says, and to quote the whole verse, “What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun”, Ecclesiastes 1:9.
Cheers Danny, keep up the great essays and the YouTube channel.
Thank you, Danny!!!!! I’m 71. This really resonates with me…. I’ve been trying to find “my voice, my style” for so long, but recently just decided to just observe my surroundings! There’s so much there I didn’t see!!
Amazing what you can learn, even as an old fart!!! 😁
Thank you for helping me see art + life differently. You've inspired me and made me laugh out loud for many years. How lucky I've been to collide with you ! Will you be sharing your art from Paris?
Thank you for writing , Danny; I love it. You are so entertaining and encouraging. When I retired I decided to dedicate time to creating (anything). Right now, I am learning to trust the connection between what I see and what I produce, and believing it is “good enough” to exist. Reading your posts helps.
Thank you Danny for sharing your thoughts and your journey. Now that I am middle age (or an official senior citizen according to TJMaxx), I can feel out of place trying to make simple art in a world of super talented people, like I should be better by my age. But it brings me so much joy. My goal isn’t necessarily to make art that is good (hopefully it’s not awful) but to seek the good that art does for me. You continue to inspire. Never stop sharing.
Love reading excerpts of your writing. Danny…

Exactly!
So well said. I feel like I know you, when I don't. But your sketches and your writing bring back to center. Thanks!
Danny, I love this so much. You speak to my soul!!!

An engaging perspective on aging; thank you for this delightful essay.
I wholeheartedly agree, catching a glimpse of myself in the gym mirror during Zumba has been far more motivating than any scale I’ve stepped on!

Namaste means Thank you and is the usual sign off for yoga classes. Lululemons are fancy yoga pants.

Brilliant writing. “Nobody else has that recipe” truly resonates.
So true, I could've benefitted from this sooner, but at 84 it is still welcome! Thanks, Danny.
Thank you!!!!! I’ve been struggling with this. You have helped tremendously.

Cheerio!

Needed exactly this! Much thanks!

Art is art. It is only 'awful' to the uninitiated folks who can't be bothered to give it a try themselves.
