Daily posting

It occurs to me that I’m not doing too well on this whole post-one-blog-entry-every-day.
I think what happened, is what seems to happen with every committed project that I start.
I did 365 days of self-portraits. And after about 50 pictures, I lost my drive.
I did the daily blogging. And after less than a week, I lost my drive.
Ugh.
I wonder, sometimes, if the reason for my art-exploration failures, is because I am not surrounded by creativity. As a matter of fact, I’m surrounded by anti-creativity every day. Computers, predefined things, pigeonholed-ness, and lots else.
You can’t further one part of your being without immersing yourself in things that help enforce whatever you’re trying to grow.
Ach. Such a simple solution, and yet not-so-simple after all. I am comfortable in my job as a techie-robot-junkie.
Maybe I really should take a leap of faith - change to doing something different… doing something that interests me, instead of doing something that I’m good at.
I think this has been a realization-in-the-making for a long time. Now to pray that I’ll have the courage to jump when I see the opportunity.
I’ll keep you posted, folks.
