Today I opened my RSS client of choice,as I do every morning, and came across this blog post by Austin Kleon where he quoted Jerry Saltz, in “How To Be An Artist”

As artist Laurel Nakadate has observed, being a parent is already very much like being an artist. It means always lugging things around, living in chaos, doing things that are mysterious or impossible or scary. As with art, children can drive you crazy all day, make you wish all this could go away. Then in a single second, at any point, you are redeemed with a moment of intense, transformative love.

Loved it!
