My desperate need for balance. We aren’t meant to find balance! Next post...

Anna Alexander: Heroically lost, heroically found. February 23, 2014. A video featuring the wise words of Ira Glass has been floating around my Facebook feed where is giving a commentary as only Ira can about the creative process and how we all suck at the beginning of any creative endeavor and just have to plow through until we get good.
