There are mountains of homework and studying threatening to topple poor Skruffy right now. I think I'm going to be a lot less active on SG until at least the end of the week, just so's you all knows.
"To write is in some way to cut the seemingly automatic pattern of violence, destructiveness, and death wish. To write is to put the seeming insignificance of human existance into a different perspective. It is the need, the wish, and please God, the ability, to reorder our physical faith."
-Alfred Kazin (American writer)
Question:
1.) If not writing, what do you do creatively that makes you feel the same way as Kazin is describing? What do you do that helps you put your existance into a different perspective? Or if you do write, does it have the same effect on you as what Kazin describes?

1. i don't have anything that makes me feel the way kazin is describing; nothing that helps me put my existance into a different perspective. raising my daughter, perhaps, but that isn't considered 'creativity.' i've always considered my personal creative outlet- my art- to be dj'ing. a lot of people think that it's just playing a bunch of records, but its not at all...at least not for me.
