					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m glad I could experience at least part of your journey. Your artwork and messages have always inspired me. I too have experienced achieving life goals and afterward feeling a little sadness or emptyness. The search for what comes next can be a bit troubeling, but I&#039;ve recently realized that staying open and following my heart is the key. We don&#039;t need to see the path clearly, we just need to rely on that inner guidance system, as you have already done on your journey to recognise yourself as an artist. Thanks for sharing all you are with us!]]></description>
