I loved gesso. I loved its thick whiteness and how it was so forgiving. I loved brushing it on heavily over my marred canvas. It made the canvas look new and clean, without a single blemish. I wish they made gesso for the soul, because if they did, I would slather it on thick. I would create a new me. I, too, would be new and clean, without a single blemish.

Someone once told me that life wasn't fair...and they were right. But I don't think that life was ever meant to be fair or perfect. It's not the tragedy, it's how we deal with it. It's whether we come out stronger because of it. It's not about blocking out the pain or hiding from it, it's about letting the pain shape you into someone better than you were before.
