Tess, I'm so pleased...Thanks for the thoughts!<br /><br />Tess, I'm so pleased you responded. As a millenial you have a unique perspective. I love your curiosity approach. <br /><br />Sandra, we are all addicts. Your point rings so true and so tragic! <br /><br />Joan, it is funny how insight in the first step, and then practice, practice, practice!

Addictive and the reverse of creative -- where we create because we have to, not for the reward.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10975460605600663854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4996989778564327429.post-71610337674797300712015-02-19T12:23:57.123-08:002015-02-19T12:23:57.123-08:00I think this has a lot to do with expectations.

When I post anything I am eager to see who might "like" my post as opposed to how many. Can I accurately anticipate who might "like" a post based on the content? Sometimes I can, sometimes I can't. Sometimes I'm surprised at who chooses to "like" a certain post. As long as I'm not posting something with the expectation that someone specific should "like" it, I can approach the process with a curiosity and interest that won't lead me down a self-destructive path.Tesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08353658473784656623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4996989778564327429.post-46270087891829564112015-02-19T00:02:50.420-08:002015-02-19T00:02:50.420-08:00Insightful point, Beth!
