Has Life Ever Gotten IN The Way?
Posted On 06/07/2008 20:41:59 by Lynnp6260
Hey..
Its been a while..
I have been so busy.. that I hardly have time to log in.. let alone write anything..
but today.. as we speak.. I am doing a few loads of laundry.. and thinking.. I NEED TO PAINT SOMETHING!!!!
SO of course.. I thought..
How many of you actually feel this way?
Did anyone ever get so busy with life that you neglected your creative side?
 
I know.. it's hard to imagine.. but lately things have gone a bit wacky in my life.. My Dad is ill.. and My Mon wants to be with him.. and she doesn't drive..
So the last 6 weeks have been driving to the hospital.. visiting.. then going to work.. and then going back to the hospital.. visiting.. driving Mom home.. and getting home after 11:00 only to poop out and fall asleep.
Right now its more of the same.. its rehab.. and its a whole different vibe.. its depressing.. and hard to see loved ones suffer.. so I think about it almost non stop.. well . until I think.. I NEED TO PAINT!!!
 
I never realized how much I look forward to starting a painting.. a drawing.. anything..
I think about it for a while.. then I make sure I have all the supplies I need.. and then I start.. of course.. I start.. throw away my first try.. and start again.. Its a process that I LOVE..I miss it.. but of course I am so exhausted when I get home.. that I cant start anything..
 
It made me think..
how many of you have had life get in the way?
Has life's happenings ever gotten so intense that you could not create?
As anyone else felt like you would explode if you could not create?
 
Of course.. as I am writing this.. I am thinking..
WHY are you writing and not drawing?
bet you are too!!!
 
I would love to answer that.. BUT..
I am too exhausted!!!!
 
 
I have promised myself.. that tomorrow.. I will paint something.. ANYTHING..
I need to do this for me.. and perhaps..
I will feel better about everything..
