In my dreams
I am an eloquent wordsmith,
effortlessly fashioning unformed thoughts into written wisdom
In my dreams
I am a talented artist,
paint flowing elegantly from brush to canvas into swirls of beauty
In my dreams
I am an inspired designer,
taking nothing and making a magnificent, breathtaking something
And then I wake up,
and daily
struggle to create

I see no signs of struggle from where I sit.
Keep dreaming though– I believe they do come true

It doesn’t seem like your struggle too much!

Less and less the more I practice, but it’s definitely easier in my dreams.

Oh, how true this is, Dawn. I can’t even say how many times I’ve dreamed that I was writing, and the writing came so easily and was good! It’s so frustrating to wake up from that–I always wish I could remember what I wrote!

It’s frustrating, isn’t it?! I often dream I’m writing fiction (which I don’t/can’t do in my waking life), and when I wake up I’m so disappointed that it wasn’t real!

The struggle is an irreplacable part of the art, I think. If it came easily, would we value it as much?

Very wise and true words! I believe you’re correct.
