Motivation: An artist's need.

"I have a strong need to paint: if I don't paint I cry and get bad headaches."  (Judy Levy)

Sometimes when I struggle, feel lost, or want to cry for no good reason, I realize I am not writing. I need to write. I feel better when I do.

So next time you feel out-of-sorts, take an inventory of your activities, or perhaps the lack thereof. Do you need to write, paint, compose, design, dance? Hop to it!
