Recently I wrote a poem encompassing the fear of creating for the consequences entitled: ‘Why I Don’t Want To Make YouTube Videos’. Which did indeed end up on YouTube… here.
Working through the creative process was more than a little ironic, picking through the reasons why, specifically internet-creating, often feels like it has more cons than pros. The poem works through why I believe, I and others, should ‘do something rather than nothing’ and I hinge on two great quotes that I wanted to give a little more air time to:
Bruce Lee thought that,
‘mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them’
and Teddy Roosevelt said,
‘It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed’
I wish as a society we had the bravery to live by these quotes more often.
