A Need To Be Creative

I realized today, after much subterfuge I witnessed, that there are some people whose aspirations ignore decency or courtesy. It has stuck with me too long a time today and I was trying to determine why that might be. That's when I started to account for my habits. Looking at the habits of an artist whom I admire, I realized that an idle mind makes room for idle thoughts. Though from time to time it's good to meditate on ourselves and find our centers of patience and creativity, my time today was mostly wasted on anger.

It became apparent that there exists a need within me that I mistook for boredom. A need to be creative daily. From this moment on, I will make sure to listen to that part of me and find ways every day to remain in a creative state so as not to waste time and energy on idle things that I largely cannot control. What I can control, is what I do. Are my habits in line with those accomplished artists who I admire? Are my behaviors conducive to that of someone striving to be an artist or am I merely wasting time complaining about others and not progressing in my work? I know now what to do.
