Canvas, blank yet speaking to me in my exile. Dare I fill it with the colors missing, always missing from the pattern I've sewn like a cocoon around me? No! I am afraid to fill that blank canvas

this is profound as it addresses the cocoon of fear in which we encase ourselves, afraid to fill the blank canvas, the empty pages, etc. For me, it's self imposed exile. Well said, Cheeta. Have a splendid evening, Sara
