You put yourself forward to help hold a stall at an event, there will be another 4-5 people there throughout the day. You thought it will be important to share the words about a project you have been working on. There are a number of projects you are working on. Too many actually. It is ok though, you can manage. You developed all the leaflets, posters for the event, you even posted one tweet or two. Here it is, a day before the event, you are hit by an horrible cold, what do you do: a) still go to hold the stall the following day - just stuck it up. b) let your colleague know that you are feeling poorly, yet promise to drop the leaflets and posters. You choose a), you are feeling horrid all day, yet meet a lot of people and your colleagues are happy to see you although you complain all day that you are feeling crap.

You can fell that you are bursting with creativity. You feel pressurized. You cannot find enough time and space to ler it all out. The day to day demand, the endless tasks of things to do for things you do not really care about weigh on you. You want to send it all to another universe. So you can bleed your heart out in things that you truly love. You feel some frustration as you are looking for ways to make this creativity to pay you in some ways. Some wages would be good. Just be patient it will all come eventually. Keep working your craft, discipline yourself, try to find in what bores you a thread of wisdom, find the details that will let your creatity express itself. It will all eventually settle itself. Patience is the way to go...

Do what makes you happy....
