Maybe you would rather take a sketch pad or a guitar. My son Channing picked up his camera and shot a picture of bald cancer survivor Jennifer Nichols holding her baby as she gazes at an array of wigs. That image stays with me and expresses anguish and hope beyond words. Use a camera, a paintbrush, a saxophone, your own body. A wide range of artistic expression awaits you.
When you finish pouring out your heart, consider sharing your creative effort with someone else. Not everyone can dance, paint, sculpt, or compose. Your non-verbal creation can be a way to share what no one can say.
