you have inspired me.

sorry if that sounds weird, but it’s true. i think for the past long while (maybe 3 years? 4?) i have been unimaginative- uninspired. there have been so many things i’ve wanted to do, but honestly? i really just haven’t felt like it.

yeah i could write. or make a little website. or paint a picture or take a photo. but… eh? why? everything has already been written. no one will see it. no one will care.


the energy was sucked out of me.


i think i have some pretty good excuses. i won’t bore you will all that. but that doesn’t excuse the fact that i think you need to have balance in your soul. i’ve always thought this. that you can’t have reason without creativity. without doing something because you want to. which i suppose is a reason, because everything has a reason (i believe this btw) but i digress.

my mom was an artist. music. my house was always very lively. we played games and yelled across rooms and blared various noises on the television. sometimes someone would even play music.
i tried learning how to play piano when i was little. i only got to hot cross buns. i would still like to learn some day.
what is the point i’m making?
oh yeah.

thank you for sharing so much with me. it sounds silly, i guess, because of course an artist wants to share. so maybe i shouldn’t be thanking you, necessarily. and maybe i’m giving you too much credit. but i feel certain that you’ve helped accelerate me out of a creative rut that i’ve been seeping in for years. years!

so yeah.
thank you.
really.


best,
