So, I got to thinking, because I had a crap time trying to sleep and that’s all I could do: Why can’t we see our piece of creativity the same way others see them?

Well, first of all: We’ve seen that certain thing so much that we got desensitized to the idea and what we did with it. The idea is old to us, but it’s completely new to others and it fills them with excitement, much as it may have done when we first came up with the idea.

Second: It may have to do with us putting a little piece of ourselves into that piece of creativity; that’s how I see creativity. For me, especially when it comes to writing a new character, that little piece of me is being shown through different ways. That piece of me can be hurt or praised, depending on how the audience reacts to it.

And third: It may just have to do with some sort of anxiety we face. I feel like any person that is creative in any sort of way deals with a form of anxiety, that being different from anybody else’s (e.g., my anxiety shows through fast-paced thoughts, almost hyperventilating, but it may be different for Connie). Anyways, that anxiety can hold us back to becoming who we want to be or what we want our pieces of creativity to be.

In conclusion: I need sleep and to stop thinking about these things late at night/early in the morning.
