The Editor is Often the Enemy of the Creator

I’m beginning to learn that when I’m in a creative mode, the Editor is often the enemy of the Creator; we can’t entertain them both at the same time. The Editor doesn’t play fair, so only when the Creator is ensconced in a protected place should we allow the Editor to come out to play. –Scrap Lady Sharon Barnes

At the level of daily life, there certainly is loss. If we spiritualize it away, we cannot use it to grow. . . . This usually means allowing ourselves to be touched by life, to participate in it. we learn by experience. The unexperienced life does not teach anybody anything. There are no spiritual shortcuts.
