Now just to get my rump in the chair and more words on the page! <BR/><BR/>Margaretmcrowley41https://www.blogger.com/profile/07828250885700208237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20654551.post-9922177627787252342008-07-15T13:23:00.000-07:002008-07-15T13:23:00.000-07:00Very well said, Beth.

I would find it Horrible to Burn out and Fade away. I enjoy writing. It gives me a release. Without that release, I would find no joy in what I am doing. <BR/><BR/>Thank you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03345861819996815686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20654551.post-25430530465621107092008-07-15T11:48:00.000-07:002008-07-15T11:48:00.000-07:00"When the joy of creative expression disappears, s..."When the joy of creative expression disappears, so too does the impetus to create."<BR/><BR/>Well said, Beth! I love that you coach to to inside, to be introspective. That's something I find as necessary to my work as I do breathing.

Balance is so hard to come by and does require time and attention, but without it...well, you get the idea!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09886513385242344282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20654551.post-14358628989278539392008-07-15T10:57:00.000-07:002008-07-15T10:57:00.000-07:00This is extremely appropriate to my situation.

Then that looks like fear, which does play a part in causing it I suppose, or lack of willpower or desire, but no. Balance is something that has been adequately discussed regarding many others -- from mothers to businessmen -- but artists I feel kind of abhor the subject, even when I've seen them practice it! Hypocrites! We're supposed to live for passion, better to burn out than to fade away. Pffw.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12499507695341951541noreply@blogger.com
