Guilt?
I was reading a blog and the author of the blog was talking about how she felt guilty (http://debsheadstick.blogspot.com/) because she was not being very productive in her artistic trade. It brought the question to my mind - Why do we feel guilt when we are not painting, drawing, writing etc?
For me, I do feel guilt if I do not paint or draw. I have even gone as far as avoiding my friends who do because I felt so low when I saw all the things they were doing as I sat and did nothing. There is nothing wrong with taking a break so why do we feel guilt? Is it because we know we could be growing but instead we are sitting on our hands? I like to think taking a break is a part of the growth process. But that could be my guilt talking trying to give me reasons for not doing anything..;) What do you think?

@Kristen.. Oh you are too kind! Really.. you are! haha.. But thank you. I have a lot of artsy friends online. Not here close to me though. I think I would be more productive if I did.
