The Silver Foxes of the garden pools (Patreon)

Good afternoon my dears! I hope you are all doing well today! I myself was on my way to work when my stomach fell quite ill to the ravages of a 50 cent mini pie. Between you and me however it was worth it....kind of...it was delicious though! Needless to say, in between my tethering to the bathroom this day, I decided to work on an image of silver foxes which in part was inspired by my sketches the other day, and of non non biyori. Which can be found here

It burdens some folks...that they have the potential for a lot of things. Some look at knowledge as this infinite thing beyond their grasps, therefor unobtainable. That skill is something only given rightly, not earned. So they tell themselves that they are just not good enough for any of it...

Don't sell yourself cheap. You've been quiet for a while, haven't you..? If you think we cannot hear your voice, then you are wrong. There are those that talk much and listen little, and there are those that talk little, and are little heard. You can choose, you can speak..so choose to speak in the way only you know how, and listen to this world around you.  Beyond the garden is the lake, and beyond the lake are the pools of the silver foxes. They circle the waters and play sad songs quietly of regrets to an empty audience..and when I hear them, I see some of you.

I like it when you speak. When you motion your hands to write something, to draw something, to say something...to do something, because the song changes all because of you. The waves on the water still again and the foxes lower their flutes. I'm not expecting anything from any of you..but I am hoping you will see more than mistakes or failure as punishment. That you will acknowledge how great you are, and how much further on you still have to go. Prove me right just this once won't you..? That you're as wonderful as I know you are....please...
