i might need to turn off the internet for a while.
i’m feeling overwhelmed by the amount of creative talent which abounds in the world and am increasingly aware of my lack of accomplishment in any one endeavour.
i’m not jealous of all the amazing people making amazing things. i’m honestly amazed at their abundant talent and creativity. i’m sad that i’ve wasted 41.583 years not finding that thing at which i was meant to excel at.
okay, i might be a little envious of those people who are equally skilled in multiple disciplines. that’s not entirely fair. what if they’ve stolen my intended skill somehow?
maybe i’m just meant to be overwhelmingly average in all my undertakings? that’s not so bad, i guess. there’s a place for normal people in the world. it’s just that the pinterests and the tumblrs and the facebooks all seem to show me that everyone but me is out there being glorious and pooping magical rainbows without a hint of struggle or self-doubt.
in the mean time, yeah. i think i need to pull back from online consumption for a while.
