how can I possibly write papers when all I want to do is create?
but isn’t writing creating?
can you create with someone else’s thoughts?
if I’m reading and taking notes and writing them out, is it creating or just repeating?
is repeating creating?
isn’t imitation the highest form of flattery?
is imitation creation?
isn’t imitation a form of inspiration?
isn’t creation based on inspiration?
if I am reading and writing and imitating from inspiration, isn’t that creation?
so then, the real question is, am I willing to accept that just doing homework is creation?
and that right now, working through this textbook,
I am a designer?
I wish poetry would stop calling to me.
I’m not supposed to be a philosopher but I don’t seem to have a choice.
