Talent and Production

I think that I lack both. I wish I could sew. Or draw. Or throw a pot with some sense of precision. I try, though.

Maybe singing is my calling, yet the call to create something, the terrible, horrible feeling of not being able to produce anything often overwhelms me. And I am once again left with the sucky feeling of dissatisfaction and futility. Not utility.

Lauran Alane, my favorite felter/designer has the most amazing needle felted birds:
Now that's talent!

Those birds are darling!

Don't give up on your creative desires. We all get better. (Sometimes just really slowly!)
