"In the beginning, there was nothing but the Great Self, Brahman. That is to say, nothing but Brahman existed." This is one of the kick ass pillar God's. One of the Gods that is the substance which the other gods are made of. A Yahweh, sorta speaking. Well, Brahman got so lonely that he also became fearful. These emotions caused him to create the Creator- a Creator that's not important to this post , but had to be mentioned.
Anyway, I got to thinking about how Brahman could be important to myth makers and storytellers like myself. Truth be told, when we are on the verge of coming into the public and start hocking our wares, we are so nervous that we become afraid. There is nothing which will produce fear and statis greater than thinking that something that you've put your heart and soul into will be publicly rejected or worst, deemed valueless. Lack of support from community, family, and friends will put such fear in your heart and can lead to the development of a mental illness or breakdown. During this time of the year, being lonely enough to create a being to share time and space with can happen to anyone- especially us fellow creative types. So what's a writer to do, besides write? Communicate, express yourself, get that creative energy moving, that's what. Now is not the time for things to get stuck without having some sort of support system for your voice in place. Now, with the public service announcement shared, let's look at what a healthy writer can look forward to when they are lonely and fearful. Creativity. Creative energy like never before. Energy which we can and should ride. That is unless you've bypassed such energetic motivational need. In that case, let the fear go and learn to create out of joy. They joy of creating will block the loneliness and fearful thoughts. When we're first coming out there is so much nervousness and it comes from a lack of confidence. We're moving like rabbits with their fearful zigs and zags defensive movements. But after a while the fear of the unknown has to be let go of. That's what it all comes down to, because the mind is a beautiful servant to a focused master. Select to be in joy and do your joy thing so well that it attract others, both in and supportive of the field of creativity that you're in. Even Brahman did it- let go of the loneliness enough to create everything we see on this earth. Which is why I have belief that we can and will do it also. Until later fellow myth makers, storytellers, and lovers of all things story. Thanks for listening! Sabrina Louise Andielle
