Why is hope the most important thing in the world?

It's not easy being a creative person.
Actually, it's probably one of the hardest paths to follow in life. To become a doctor or a lawyer or a carpenter or a priest is probably a more straightforward path because you know the path to follow to reach the destination.
I doubt that people like Van Gogh or Michaelangelo knew what the future held when they started creating their greats works of art. All they could do was work their butts off and -.
Well, there was one other ingredient.
Hope.
It might sound sort of corny, but isn't that why we all go on living? Because we hope for a better future? Because we hope there's going to be a tomorrow? A quick glance at the daily headlines will pretty well dampen your spirits for the day. It's a wonder we don't all just throw outselves into the sea.
That's why it's important to support things in life that are full of hope. That's why we need to support friends and strangers who create art and in doing so make the world a better place to live in.
And why is art important? Because we only create art after the issue of self preservation has been settled. Then we begin to look outwards and try to get a larger sense of the world and try to represent it in our own ways.
Is this blog about me? Absolutely not. It's about The Lucky Wonders.
Who are The Lucky Wonders, I hear you ask? They're an up 'n coming band from Byron Bay. They released their first album to wide ranging acclaim and now they're working on their second album.
Have you ever wanted to be part of a creative process? To help someone achieve their creative dreams? That's what The Lucky Wonders are doing. They're working towards their dreams and putting a little love and a lot of hope out there into the world.
