Welcome to 2014!
"Happy New Year" everyone, and let's make this year a memorable one!
I wanted to share with you a story that I heard about a gentleman called Willard Wigan (some of you may have heard of him). He is a world-famous sculptor, who sculptures miniature pieces of amazing artworks in the eye of a needle, or on the head of a pin. To truly appreciate the beauty of his works, they need to be viewed through a microscope.
You may ask yourself, why has he chosen to create such beauty that cannot be viewed by the naked eye? Well, that is a good question, and it goes back to his childhood when he was subjected to public humiliation as a five year old, by one particular teacher. Luckily for him, his mother recognised his special talent as a young, budding artist, and encouraged him by saying that the smaller his pieces of artwork became, the more impact they would have on the world.
Willard now spreads the word that sometimes things can be right in front of you, and you don't always see them; so look with fresh eyes, and expect the unexpected.
Enjoy everything that 2014 has to offer you!
