December 25, 2003 Product Versus Process steam of consciousness or fix the things you hate as you go. I'm writing a letter in my head, and two paragraphs down, I realize that I start to lose my focus. I regain by saying,"but this was not supposed to be about me." Problem: should I go back and rewrite it-leaving out these important elements just to keep my focus, or do I let it be and reveal my thought process? Then again, the product should be the process. A brilliant boy said that once and I disagreed...but that was art. Then again he was philosophy and writing too...so maybe he was wrong, probably not. I like people who are smarter than I am....but we never stay great friends. I'm just never good enough. Forgive me if I have trouble believing that I am. Again the problem...to rewrite this entry...or show myself. Vulnerability is a beautiful thing, and I intend on being the most beautiful you've ever met. |
