Ahhh! is what I said when I received notification that I’ve been nominated for a grant earlier this year. This week, I received notification that I wasn’t one of the eight fortunate artists that were selected to receive the grant…Ohhh 
Although I didn’t get the grant, I’m very grateful to the person who thought of my work and nominated me for such a wonderful opportunity. Thank you, thank you!
As we all probably know, life is bigger than egos or envy. For me, in order to be part of a healthy community, it’s important to recognize the value of others’ accomplishments. So congratulations to the grant award winners! Cheers!
