What Trauma ‘Holds’: Opportunities Through Loss

I am obsessed with Lady Gaga’s Marry the Night video…

…& not just for its representation of completely relatable & personal (to me) life barriers (that are ultimately transformed into inspiration): psychosis, trauma, psychology, creativity, pointe, dance, art, relationships, failure…but for the message that success develops only out of the determination to NEVER GIVE UP…something all of us can relate to!

To embrace and then re-CREATE traumatic events in one’s life, to re-form the impossible not simply into the possible, but into achievement…is a belief that instructs and inspires my every thought.

It’s nice when art pushes limits & asks us to not simply attend, but to reflect on its application to our lives.

Happy Monday, C.
