The Way
"As you start to walk on the way, the way appears."
When we start a creative project - a painting, a song, a story - we might only have a spark of inspiration, not a fully-formed vision. But as we take the first steps, adding color, words, or notes, the way becomes clearer. As many wise people have said, the most important thing is to start! Trust that the rest will come, unfolding in its own time. For Queer people, this process often mirrors the journey of self-discovery and expression. Being a Joyful Queer means embracing this uncertainty and finding joy in the process of creation rather than just the outcome.
