I thought that everything I wanted to do needed a purpose. It had to be great, and useful, and important to people. Or funny, entertaining, full of joy.

That led me to mostly do nothing. In between a fear of failing, and a fear of succeeding. Eventually, it suppressed my feelings of "want" altogether.

What if I surrender to these fears, and allow myself to create without judgement. I would create many things, maybe a few good ones. I would re-learn what I want.

And ultimately, I wouldn't be afraid anymore.
