A "multi" creative

I made a mistake by searching "what to do when you have many different interests". It is a mistake to consider what internet analytics can show me while pondering an important theme as this. Analytics can only show what's been deemed "popular" and that from my own experience is only a summary of all that is easy to replicate. That's not what I was searching for when I was initially asking. The core of what I was needing is a toolbox that can carefully outline all that I find interesting. Words get in the way too often when "creating" so I paint or produce film or cook! And I love showing this. Featuring myself as main character in my day to day narrative is a task. It can daunting especially if mental and emotional imbalances kick in. An upsetting event can turn a beautiful passion project into an unfinished cluster-foil. I just now came up with that word: "cluster-foil". There it is again, creativity!

And I am proud to have coping and management when the upset occurs, but what about the creativity? Why am I feeling doomed to repeat an endless loop of organically generating an idea, pursuing to form it as tangible then meeting a derailing moment in time all while I'm happily in create mode? I do my best to make notes on my phone that will prod my creative wheel spin again to see the project into completion. Defiant to what can enact derailment next. *sigh*

Trio of haiku

sometimes you’re tired

other times you want to fight

not today, satan 

fridays were fun days

now it’s all about my bed

things change at thirty

opted to wear heels 

walked too far in the city

not looking pretty

Going through old pictures while #juno does its thing. Memory: I've always been a morning person and so as I slipped quietly out of the room where we were staying, I immediately knew I had made the right choice in taking an early morning walk. The clouds were navigating so gently around the rugged edges of the gorge and it was was so quiet. A clash of two gigantic forces producing nothing but a calming silence. My 17 year old self stood there, a kid from Boston with roots in El Salvador with his Red Sox fitted turned backwards, stood there a figure on the edge of the road surrounded by the clouds. #chasinginspiration #chasingawe #travel #wonderandwander #backpacking #backpackers #hostels #china #asia #explore #blackandwhite #earth #igers #instagood #travelphotography (at Tiger Leaping Gorge, Yunnan)
