RE: Reflection: Does Anything Ever REALLY Get Better?
Don't get me wrong: I'm generally a fairly optimistic person, and I actively practice gratitude for the good things that do happen. But I invariably end back at feeling sad and sickened... because... people behaving badly.
Story of my life, that is!
As of late, I have been trying to kick some life into my general social media accounts, primarily with the intent of getting more active about publicizing my artwork. After all, I can't very well sit around and complain that "I never sell anything" if I'm not being active and proactive in letting people know that I have artwork for sale...
You and I are on the same mission - though, probably for different facets of said "art". Nonetheless, you are quite right. Aint gonna catch no fish if you don't throw out any lines! Though I really DO FEEL you on this.
I can have the very best intentions of consistency... and alas, I do it for a handful and then crawl back to my cave, alone - accompanied only by my general loathing for people at large and my grossly oversized insecurity lol.
Have you forgotten that most of "them" were "us," at some point?
Humans can seriously SUCK!
Indeed, humans can seriously suck! Not sure if I have just grown more selective over time... but sometimes it feels like finding anyone I see eye-to- eye with becomes less and less likely as time meanders by.
Our self-doubt demons do have a way of barging in and stomping all over our well meant plans, don't they? I often lambast myself for my inability/reluctance to just "deal with" the shenanigans and bad behavior of the "norms" of the world...
Well, FWIW I think you're brave and awesome!
About one hands worth of fingers, selective - haha!
Well - rightbackatya! :D
Hope you are having a brilliant Monday!
