I draw, I paint, I do metal work, I write, I cook, I dance on the tides of life.

Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

Re: Your creative side,how do you cope?
Willow - I was looking at your site, about the crow divination... In Norse mythology they are a sign of death, probably cause they are carnivorous and show up to eat the corpses of battle.
They hang out around here all the time, I call them "Stops" cause one sounds just like the word. They are very smart, caught one attacking a garbage bag outside the front door once and they never have messed with the bags again, after the neighbor in their negligence taught them there are good munchies in them, scared it big time. They hang out to pick pebbles on the side of the road for their gizzards and I often wonder how they manage through the 20 below winters. People have pointed out that they are never seen dead even by the road where they always hang out to eat the road kill and the rocks. It's strange one would think they would be caught off guard once in a while and hit by a car, but I've never seen one dead either. Oh, and they (probably Ravens) are huge around here, saw one on the side of the road once and its head was close to softball size and it just looked up as I drove by, most fly away. As a kid, a relative had one as a pet, seemed well behaved.Comment

Re: Your creative side,how do you cope?
I do it anyway.

Re: Your creative side,how do you cope?
I am one of those that doesn't do things if I can't do them well. It frustrates me to no end, so drawing, jewelry making, and crafts just make me angry. I sing to myself cause I have a song stuck in my head or I'm in the car but its not something I am passionate about."If you want to know what a man is like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals." -- Sirius Black

Re: Your creative side,how do you cope?
Very very true! It could also be I'm just not as passionate about those things as I am about my food. When something clicks in my head and soul and feels right I become obsessive. When I was younger this was basketball for me. Now its food."If you want to know what a man is like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals." -- Sirius Black

I've been thinking about getting into photography again, though part of me would rather just stick with binoculars and enjoy the moment. I'm trying to learn bass guitar but I don't practice regularly enough!Originally posted by anunitu View PostOnce a man, like the sea I raged;
