Let's Get Creative!
I highly encourage you to find a creative outlet. I've always admired people who can paint or draw, but I'm intimidated by blank paper and by not being able to make something look like I want. When I took my first quilting class, something clicked. It didn't make me feel stressed or discouraged. It was fun and fulfilling and I could make something useful and pretty!
My super-artistic daughter told me: "I think you always were creative. I think you just had to learn how to express it. Blank paper scares you, yes; but you do the same thing I do when I look at paper. When you look at fabric, you see its potential." Wow, such amazing and true words!
So keep trying different ways to express yourself, and when you find something that appeals to you, whether it's writing, or cooking, or knitting; gardening, or doodling or dancing, stick with it - persevere. You will definitely get better and you'll feel better about yourself too. Now go be Creative!
