I’m going to buy one or two huge notebooks, two huge drawing notebooks, about two dozen pens or pencils, a cheap art kit, the cheapest yet nicest camera I can find will be mine and I am going to be creative this year. I promise myself I will draw, paint, snap pics and write again! I will have faith in myself and my abilities again! By the end of 2012 I want to have enough written down or typed that I have can it all turned into a published book. I now have something positive to shoot for!!!
I haven’t tried to be creative like this in a long long while, I let my fears and insecurities stop m from the thing I enjoy. NO MORE,fuckwhat my family thinks. That nagging voice in my head that’ s been keeping me from life is going to FINALLY go away!
Fae- good for you. I applaud you for taking the time to embrace your creative side. Sometimes drawing or writing it down can help us survive all the crap life throws us.
try to create something each day even if you only have 5 minutes. It will make a difference. Please let us know how it goes. elizabeth
Fae, I’d like to encourage you to join the “Creative Intentions” group on HWT, if you haven’t already. Keddy Outlaw facilitates that group, and I KNOW they’d love to see your snapshots, drawings, ideas, etc., during the year. You are exactly what that group is all about. Please join and post your intentions and your work! http://community.herewomentalk.com/group/creativeintentions
Way to go, Fae. I feel your drive and determination. You can do it. You owe it to yourself. Ignore the naysayers. You can be and do whatever you want. And if you’d like a little nudge, check out this video. It gets me fired up every time. http://herewomentalk.com/you-can-do-it-this-will-inspire-you
