The beauty of the path we walk is that no action is ever wasted—through all the twists and turns, you’re never truly lost no matter how far you’ve wandered. This is the nature of the creative process: It all matters.

All art is a form of poetry. It’s always changing, never fixed. We may think we know what a piece we made means, yet over time that interpretation may change. The creator stops being the creator once they finish the work.
