Hey man, don't be sad. feeling this way sometimes is completely normal, espescially considering your current situation. Responsibilities and creativity, they hate eachother. What I, as an art-teacher, recommend you is; Try to go for a completely free creative outburst. Just start with nothing, no idea's, do something abstract and random, and than take the action-reaction method. Simply create, without caring about result. It can really set you free or make you miserable, either way is good in the end. You're in a place where creativity can be a refuge and a therapy. Don't put responsibillities on that too, you've got enough on your mind.
You're a nice guy, and nice guys allways win. Chin up soldier!

I don't know what to say. I feel for you that you are there ... especially during the Holidays and with your child on the way. Yet, I am so thankful for you and all the other soldiers who risk everything to protect us as we sit home cosily.

God Bless you WYSIWYG. I sincerely hope that you can find some warmth and joy in knowing that many here appreciate you there. My prayers are with you.

Sincerely,

Michelle

Hey take solace in knowing that I'm laughing at your picture. I like how the tree makes your hair look punked out. Seriously though, I look forward to seeing what you can do when you return.
