RE: I'm Howling but Everyone Took My Anguish for Art

in Freewriters8 days ago

I've talked a bit with friends about the topic. Generally, people who have the means aren't creative or aren't motivated. We have to use the disadvantages available to us to create. To externalize what eats away at us. Our art, then, is a reflection of what we've learned and what we know or interpret from the world around us. Stay creative; it's always a pleasure to read what you write.

I'm very grateful to be able to write as a therapy. My doctors encouraged that.

Thank you for your support!

You have so much talent. May writing free you and allow you to overcome all your fears. Not all people or situations are bad. There are still so many wonderful people in the world. I have great friends on this platform, with whom I share daily, and the contributions and learnings are valuable. In fact, without the motivation of this kitty @wakeupkitty, I don't think I would be writing, much less starting to paint. You need motivation and friends to create. Keep creating; the world is what we choose to be a part of.

Thank you for your kind words and encouragement @almaguer . I would have left this platform if not for our beloved kitty @wakeupkitty. This reminded me when I first started to post my so called poetry. I was unsure but this friend kept encouraging me.

Encouraging words, reaching out and showing empathy is worth a vote!
It's good to have you on Steemit.

You're part of the light that shines in the immense darkness surrounding Steemit. I hope you continue to add friends and collaborators in support of true art. I'm trying to paint new things I've been thinking about.
