If you are seeking creative ideas, go out walking. 

  Angels whisper to a man when he goes for a walk. 

We all seek creative ideas from time to time -- perhaps when we have a problem resting heavily on our minds, or when we are simply in a bad mood.

We need to refresh ourselves at those times.

Refreshment doesn't solve a problem, but it can revitalize our thinking.

Sometimes when we are feeling hopeless, we neglect to care for ourselves, forgetting a better environment will give us a stronger attitude, even toward the most difficult problems.

We must learn our own best methods for being refreshed --  ways that allow angels to whisper to us. 

They should be simple, inexpensive, and accessible daily.

Going for a walk is a very good example.

Daily reading and study is another possibility.

Observing nature, doing handicrafts or hobbies are refreshing for some.

These activities allow us to temporarily set aside our tasks and concerns and open us to creative ideas.

She says she wants others to know about her art so it may give hope to those who have also "suffered from feelings." 

Many of us have suffered from feelings. We must remember that we can each turn to our creativity -- at any age -- as a source for our well-being. 

All we need to do is have faith in the potential goodness within ourselves and those we love.
