Passing the Energy Through

As I get the push to promote my art and products more, and I part with my belongings one by one, the feeling of conflict surface more. Of how can I justify saying 'please buy my stuff'?

I can see in my mind, how once upon a time it took energy to make things, the inspiration to come up with it, the materials to create it, the energy of humans and chemicals and industrial machinery to manifest it. It gets passed on to be loved, and then loved somewhere else via donations or garage sale, and eventually disintegrate as rubbish or upcycled DIY or accidental breakage. And return to earth.

When my customer purchases as a gift to a friend, and that friend passes it along to the next person, this last person isn't going to care about my personal inspiration for manifesting the item.

So if in the end all becomes meaningless...

Why not love the moment.

Why not enjoy the moment.

Why not live in my own truth.

Why not feel into more YES's and less NO's.

I love this response I received from sharing my moment of existential crisis:
Deb Lahoud4:05 The meaning of things transform over time. once you sell it, you release it to the new owner and they get to decide its fate from that point on. It is never irrelevant in any way. Good grief. That line of thinking is exhausting! Create the art from your heart, gift it through sale and let it go. if you dont, it is like having an invisible string attached to everything you create. Dont you think that could get you tangled up? LOL
So yes to creating, speaking, moving, as the heart desires. And connect by being just that.

In the nothing-matters, is the oneness of everything-matters.
