Possible, I guess, that the cartoon's lamenting our ability to unhappily accept situations we ought to change. More fun, though, I think, to see it as celebrating our ability to make the important changes, no matter how painful the processes might be.
Just read a blog post about Evil Plans. Now I'm wondering...
If something is an adventure, isn't it by nature worth sharing?
And aren't we all involved in little adventures every day?
So shouldn't we be telling more stories?

This is harsh. And probably too harsh. But it is, in its way, encouraging our great creative minds to live. And that's a good thing.

The creative life is uneven. You have a few short bursts of genius now
and then, the rest of the time you're trying SOMEHOW to get the magic
back again, mostly without success. It's exhausting. I am exhausted,
often.
Hugh MacLeod wrote that the other day. On his blog, which is awesome. And in a post that's pretty heavily religious, which I didn't expect but kind of dig. Because I didn't expect it. If that makes sense.
Anyway, I like the observation. Makes me wonder how many of us not quite artists can be said to be living the creative life.
