i'm not as much a part of things now days as i'd like to be. you know? i mean i feel like there's so much i wanna' be into...but if i don't hold on to the priorities then life just takes on its own way of doing things.
for instance...if i don't make it a point to be creative...then it will never happen. even though creativity is what makes me feel more alive than anything in this world. writing music, lyrics, poems or thoughts. or how about the ones that i abandoned as an adolescent...drawing, painting even coloring.
i guess what i'm trying to say is...why in adulthood must i abandon the most basic life-giving behaviors that make me who i am...and exchange them for exhausting tasks that dictate who i am to become?
i believe when we, as creative beings, delve into the creative process, we are at our purest form. no distractions, no agendas and no deadlines. just open hearts and minds...empty notebooks and blank canvases. nothing to lose and everything to lose.
it is within us to bring life...creativity here i come.
to be continued...
