Just Do It
March 24, 2005As you may have read in my previous entry, my internet connection has been decidedly TWITCHY this week. I never know if an email I’ve just written will actually get sent or if updates to my website will actually get uploaded because my connection craps out at random moments throughout each day – and usually at the most inconvenient times. Yesterday I actually had a long streak of things working smoothly, and I was able to upload a new series of collages on my site called "The SHE Series". It is a work in progress, and I decided it was better to put up what I have and continue to add to it rather than wait until I have some magic number of images. There is more work to do on my website – more illustrations to add, a new section I want to create highlighting some of my favorite LA places and a few other things. Sometimes I wonder why I enjoy working on this site so much. I mean, it’s not like I’m getting PAID for it or anything! I suppose it is simply the act of expressing all that I am experiencing in my life – wanting to share as much as I can and inspire anyone who happens to stumble upon this site, just as I am inspired by so many other artistst and writers and wanderers who open up to the world through their websites.
Whatever creative idea you might have swirling around in your head today – GO DO IT. Or take just one small step towards it if it is too big of an idea to do all at once. There are no rules, requirements or judges for most creative endeavors. There is only the act of creating, and you have absolutely nothing to lose by diving in and doing it. Forget about what anyone else might think of it or what it might look like in the end – just let go and enjoy the process. IT IS WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS MOST.
