Kiki's delivery service - Ghibli fan art

What Kiki's delivery service taught me about passion?

All artists have moments where our art seems to drift away from us and our magic seems to disappear. We’re unsure of where we’re going, and if we should be doing this at all. We lose our inspiration and our confidence in ourselves. We feel like we ought to just give up. But Kiki’s Delivery Service shows us the rebirth of an artist who never gave up.

Kiki teaches us that failure is an inevitable part of the creative process, and—most importantly—is always temporary. She shows us that if we stop having fun, the magic will slip away. And when we feel like we’ve lost our magic, we have to trust in ourselves, recharge, and find our own inspiration.

Don’t give up, and you’ll be flying again in no time.
