Why the topic change? Why open myself up to the critics and old feelings of not being good at art?
Because I love creating. Okay, I used to love creating before I ended up feeling. No talent. Funny how having my daughter starting high school brings up old memories. Sadly some of those are of teachers who had no time or whatever to help encourage the shy kid of limited talent. Not all, not even many, just enough to stick with me. Whose voices I keep hearing.
Now here in my fifties I’m taking the risk and trying again. Taking back my love of creating. Opening myself up to those decade-old voices. Opening myself up to strangers on the net.
I’m worth it.
