thank you, alvaro. i relate to your message. i know very well the feeling of uncertainty when creating. i know about ideas that never seem to see the light of day. but then, as you have written, sometimes all the self-doubt and what i thought was wasted time on musical ideas comes to life. the doubt diminishes. then there is excitement, but the fear of being lost in the work is there, too. but we go on. thanks again your lovely letters. ur fan, j.
I agree. It happens to us because the act of creating something original involves walking on unknown ground. And no one can be sure when walking in the unknown. That's why originality causes doubts, it's something inevitable, even the greatest artists doubted their work, it's something that doesn't go away with time, you learn to live with it.
