July is making her way with the usual summer antics, heat, humidity, and the occasional well-received thunderstorm. I am forever reminded that there is wisdom underneath it all. Nature has wisdom, and so does each human being. It’s amazing to see a person take control of their life and make monumental meaning of it. Underneath it all everyday has a quality that cannot be measured.

Art prescription: Recount the quality of the day… write or paint about it.
