[to:] you [from:] a friend

Earlier this morning, I was searching DA for some art prints to cover my newly bare walls, and I came across the da.rtist {jeffrey}. After looking through a few of his gallery photos and prints available for sale, I am now officially in love with his work.

I have a few favorites amongst the work I've viewed so far, but this one definitely stood out to me because I have a few friends who seem to be dealing with life issues, and are generally feeling stuck or frustrated about not being able to progress as quickly as they'd like.

(yeah, i know the feeling...)



Patience by ~jeffrey on deviantART


Sometimes, I wish I had the right magic words to tell them that would instantly soothe their fears, and let them know that, "Yes. Everything will be alright. Just continue being the awesome person you are, and I'm almost certain that life will reward you for it." But sometimes, it's not enough. Sometimes I feel like I almost fail them in that aspect. And yeah, it's a sucky feeling, because the people I've surrounded myself with lately are such PHENOMENAL people. I wish nothing but the best for them, and it always makes me a little sad to see them stumble even a little over the various roadblocks in life.


Am I being too sensitive?


Perhaps.





But this is why I love jeffrey's artwork so much. A lot of it reflects what I feel inside, and how I feel the world at large should look at life and approach it.



So... I'm definitely proud to share this newfound "love" of mine, in hope that maybe his words will inspire you too. :)
