I’ve been thinking about my contribution. (Apprently, I am not the only one<\/a> ). How relevant is what I am doing, right now? I was thinking it as I walked back to my truck after my day shift at work. I was going over in my head some of the things my boss has accomplished, like starting as a piano player in a club and owning it in less than two years. Like the fact that he has done so now for twelve years, and this seems to be his “life’s work”. Like the fact that I am putting a lot of time in lately helping him with his life’s work, and wondering about how dedicated to my own I have been lately. That’s when something important hit me. It hurt. (just kidding)<\/p>\n

What hit me was the way I was using the term in my own mental conversation. I was, in fact, talking to myself. I do that regularly, often out loud and in public. It’s the sign of a creative and inteligent mind being too closed up and struggling to get out. That, or a lack of proper medication.

I was using the term “Life’s work”. Everyone<\/a> has been talking<\/a> about their job<\/a> lately, or their lack thereof<\/a>. Mine is slowly but surely consuming more of my time, and this site, as well as my other creative endeavors, have been on hold for about a week. Well, NO LONGER! I am posting everyday, from now on, in at least one section of this site. I will start seeing films again! I will write reviews! I will put my own art into the world, one way or the other. Remember, people, its not about what you do for spending cabbage, it’s how you leave your stamp on others and the collective that counts.<\/p>\n

It’s about the contribution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
