A flash of creativity

| Work and play | 2 Comments

Don't feel like writing down much today. Started out okay, got rolling really well, things picked up speed nicely and it was looking real good, really good, fantastically good. You know, I know that what I am doing is the right thing. But... boom, crash, bang and all the rest. I thought that what I was doing was a great idea, a flash of creativity, the winning goal at the last second, we won! Too bad, got reprimanded in the end by folks who know these things better than I. They just cannot get it, as if I am communicating on a completely other wavelength, spitting words and effort into nothingness. Just another bump in the road towards success, wherever that is. Success? Who needs it anyway. Shit. A flash of creativity goes down the drain, but it is weekend.

I am very  confused... ...

I understand completely. When I think something poignant, I have to write it on the spot, no matter how long it is. The more I wait, the more faded it is when I write it... and then it's watery and weak once it's on paper. A pity the mind works that way but also a blessing, if it's a feeling we'd like to escape.

Actually Kat, this had not so much to do with my writing a blog entry as it was originally intended to describe my dissappointing day at work. Interesting though that this can also be mapped so seamlessly to blogging.
