How it feels to reject attempts to express yourself
Still angry at the way creativity is treated in our society. Are you creative or not? Doesn't matter. You have to make "art" (because art is what makes life fulfilling, you can't be non-creative) and your efforts will only be compensated if consumers approve the result (even if you are creative it doesn't matter what you really feel you need to create, you have to feed the crowd). There's no place to freedom to anyone. There's no place for freedom in art. There's no romance. People are just instruments to satisfy masses.
Propaganda I'm not falling for:
Creativity is a skill
Everyone is creative
Everyone needs a creative outlet
Art is what makes life worth living
No matter how much I explain mom that I am non-creative, she keeps telling everyone that I stopped writing poems because of losing in a consent.
BTW non-creative lives are beautiful, fulfilling, real and important. Don't believe anyone who says otherwise.
Human mind can't just make up something totally new without using something old as a reference. So we can't rationally separate "new" and "unique" ideas from "copies of something else".
So what truly separates creatives from non-creatives is the way they perceive the world emotionally. Creatives feel strong connection with certain ideas and the need for self-expression, and they should be allowed to satisfy it through art independing if it does or doesn't bring them money or popularity. Non-creatives have nothing inside them to express, we just live our lives.
"Creative" is an identity.
"Artist" is an identity.
"Author" is an identity.
"Non-creative" is an identity and should be respected as well.
Reading "The Seagull". That's amazing how much non-creative coded both Trigorin and Treplev are. Treplev should be in club, Trigorin should fishing on the lake, but instead they're destroying themselves while everyone only notice their money and popularity. Why didn't they teach it in school?
I also heard they're both self-insert. What if Chekhov was non-creative too?
