| I want to create. I want to spill onto the page my thoughts and
feelings, build with words and explore the depth and breadth of the
human condition through prose. Wanting is not doing, however, and
intent without action is immaterial. And yet I find myself unable to
follow through with these desires; I sit, I stare at a blank page (or
these days, more often than not, a blank Word document) and nothing
comes. It is frustrating beyond my ability to convey, though in this I
am not alone. Another close friend is having the same problem, and
we've explored the possible reasons for it.
My theory, which is also supported in general principle by my friend,
is that the state of the world as we are given to believe is currently
so depraved and malicious, so inimicably teetering at the brink of
complete collapse, that we cannot find the joy we need to write. Unlike
many writers, I do not do my best work amidst chaos and despair, but
rather find inspiration in the uplifting, the goodly works of humanity.
Of this, we are presented with next to nothing by today's media, and
yet everywhere I look are stories of death and destruction: thousands
dead in Iraq, mothers killing their own children, countries testing
nuclear weapons...the list goes on and on.
This is not to say that I, personally, am unhappy. I have the love of a
beautiful and intelligent woman, a good job, and I want for next to
nothing in my day-to-day life. I do not complain at all about my
current situation. I just wish that I could see more of the
selflessness and compassion that I know the human race is capable of
being put on display. | | |
