How? How am I supposed to be creative? How am I supposed to write or draw when I don't get seven uninterrupted minutes to myself?
I ask for help, for the opportunity to work and practice, and it's promised but never delivered.
I try to power through the distractions anyway and get berated for being immersed, like that wasn't my goal in the first place.
I'm starting to think I'm just not meant to create art. It takes focus, it takes patience, it takes time, it takes energy.
All four of those things belong to a multitude of people who aren't me.
How am I supposed to create?
