Saw VI just made me cry. Not because it was sick and twisted scared me (those things made me smile), but because I wanted to make that so much. I can't explain it and the fact that I had such a positive and inspiring reaction to a film of this nature kind of makes me wonder if I'm not slightly ill, but it also makes me wonder if maybe it just means ( Read more... )

And now I'm crying because I imagine you or my mother saying, "What would Mia Michaels do? What would Adam Lambert do? These people that you idolize for their creativity, their brilliance, their balls, what would they do?" They'd fucking do it. They wouldn't have even taken the time to make this entry. I don't know why I'm afraid and they're not. What's missing.

Honestly, I'm not convinced it#s that easy for them either. A lot of the artists I personally know and a lot of those I admire for their talent and creativity are people who constantly struggle with all kinds of different issues, with depression, with anxiety, with financial worries or self-doubt. People who "just fucking do it" don't have to be the better artists.Hugh Laurie is one of the most brilliant actors I know, but so full of self-doubt. Please don't get me wrong, I love Mia, I just don't think that people like you who actually are indecisive and think about everything several times before they even dare to do something, are any less talented, they just struggle more and maybe that struggle gives them something unique that they will work into their art and it turns into something beautiful.

That movie I was talking about a few weeks ago... the writer was severely depressed when he wrote it and it took him a long time to even start writing the script and he finally did when he was at one of his lowest points and the movie turned out to be breathtakingly beautiful. It feels more authentic than anything I've seen for a while. I hope this makes sense somehow?
