Making and Manifesto

     When I began my project of making, my Manifesto was to make for someone else. It was to use my making skills for the greater good. This was because, in doing so, I would have a greater purpose in making and therefore every struggle, every time I wanted to give up, and every tedious hour spent on creating my make, it could remind myself of the purpose of it all. Therefore I decided to make a baby mobile for my boss.
     When I was creating my mobile, I can remember so many times during the process when I wanted to give up. After my horrible proto-type, after burning myself about forty times while making my sheep, and most defiantly when I had to try to make my clouds hold together after the third time gluing them together, but in each instance I would go back to my Manifesto.
     "Your doing this for the greater good of those around you. Your doing this for Cindy." I would tell this to myself over and over and over again, get myself back together, and go about making all over again.
In the end I was left with a beautiful piece of art work and was extremely joyed when I saw the look on Cindy's face when she received my gift. That's what made this project worth all the pain. The look on Cindy's face.
I end this blog with one of my favorite quotes:
