A remarkable individual, ahead of his time with his skating style, a true artist. Love that saying about running away just to find you are arriving, very interesting indeed.

Who DOESN'T know what that feels like?? the struggle is worth it, just as michael says, and i guess sometimes we do need that bit of pressure to get us on a roll again. crunch time…. fun time… maybe.

I usually have a general plan, but I'm more creative when I'm in the throes of the moment. In the words of one of my favorite people artist/figure skater Toller Cranston (Order Of Canada and Canada Walk Of Fame recipient): "Sometimes I physically ache with the desire to outdo myself. My head feels as if it would burst and I am consumed by a torrent of energy. A need to create. At other times I am gripped by a supreme inertia, an ultimate lethargy, when I feel nothing, nothing, nothing." "I have a burning compulsion to achieve. To do everything, everywhere. Never to stop moving forward, even for one moment. There is so much to be done, and time is always my enemy." "Sometimes you think you are running away, only to find that you are just arriving" "Wings are not only for birds; they are also for minds" "Artists are the tools of God. They are driven mercilessly towards goals they are powerless to alter. They are the instruments of destiny. Their lives are not their own" "If you cannot understand my silences, how can you begin to understand my words?" :These are some of my favorite Toller inspirational quotes :there are many more that are humorous and biting and ingenious....but you'll have to dig to find them. When I went to his studio to pick up one of his famous original paintings that I had purchased, I got to speak with him about life and art and human foibles. This is a man that literally gave me the shirt off his back when I remarked how much I liked it. He said, "Well, then I am going to give it to you." He took the shirt off, turned, walked out of the room with his arms over his head like he had just given a performance. My husband and I thought .."Is that it? Is he going to return?" He came out a few minutes later with another shirt on, but I will never forget that experience." I still have his purple blouse in my closet! His paintings are hanging on the wall:-)I look at them everyday for inspiration. Keep pressing on David...your creative juices will explode with many colors when the time is right. -Yvette Kirchgesner I work better under pressure when I’m creating..especially in the time crunch.

Not that we look for struggling or problems or the like but I think part of living on this planet involves this, the tough with easy, usually never just easy unfortunately.
