I am overwhelmed by the beauty in this letter Leandra. I had to read it more than once. I will savor the layers of it all for a while. I am a visual artist and have always felt the connection between the “eternal Creative” ( i love your choice there) and art. I feel that feeling when I work. It is a peace that is hard to describe but, oh so real. And you are correct! Sharing a piece of your soul through creative mediums is “laying bare the most vulnerable part of themselves...”. In that line, you describe exactly how I feel as a creative person and the beauty of your words bring me to tears. Thank you for sharing the vulnerable parts of you. Your words are a light. Also, I LOVE the fits! Xo

Thank you for your thoughtful perspective. As the CFO of the Israeli dance company Ate9, we are seeking balance, standing strong in support of Israel's right to defend itself, while remaining fluid, praying that the Palestinians will find the strength to elect peaceful leadership for their cause and accept Israel. It feels kind of like letting go of hate and opting for love. P.S. Special request, I just love your wardrobe and it would be amazing to see a photo of your closet someday!

Thanks. I am currently reading Eat Pray Love. I love the book, but I like your approach to food better than Gilbert's. You display food that looks delicious, but not fattening. I love fashion slightly more than food. But you are reminding me that both can be enjoyed.

Leandra, this is the most beautiful article I’ve ever read from you! I suppose God is also that light we try to bring into the darkest corners of our home? Thank you for your heartfelt words, and let’s continue celebrating creativity even more in these times. ❤️
