Especially YOU!

I am writing to you, personally and directly.   Yes, YOU!

What?  You think this blog goes out to the masses and there’s no way I can anticipate and cater to the attention and interests of one isolated blog reader?  Not so!

Alas, I haven’t the time needed to delve into the whole superpowers backstory.  Suffice to say, several years back, I fell into a giant industrial vat of some mega-syllable caustic chemical compound and emerged with the power to anticipate individual bloggers’ interests and thoughts.

There, now that we’ve established trust….

Again, I’m talking to you.  What are you doing not creating?  Ha!!  I’ve called you out on it.  I know.  You rationalize that you ARE creative in some ways, and that your life really doesn’t offer enough creative outlets, and that if you did try to be more creative, you’d simply be out-shined by others.  Well, that’s just kitchen swill for pigs! (aka, hogwash)

This is YOUR time to be creative.  Why?  Because you’re desperately needed.  Have you looked around lately?  Wait, I’ve just been handed a list by our Aggregators of Calamitous Events and Ruinous Maladies (CERM) here at Mindclay Central.  Posting the abridged version:

.

As with all lists, even our own Aggregators will admit this one is imperfect and subject to the variances of personal priorities and differing views.  You are welcome to make your own.

The point is – there’s a lot of work to do and, really, most of it boils down to creativity. These are, inarguably, momentous times.  Momentous times require greatness on all fronts, but especially in the areas of inspiration and creativity.  We’ve never been in more dire need of creative solutions.  At the same time, there’s never been such a woeful dearth of them.   The great thing is creativity, when unleashed, is pretty much self-perpetuating and takes all forms, from technical innovation, to inspired leadership, to new ways of communicating and sharing ideas.

Now, as we’ve established earlier, I’m imbued with a special type of blog clairvoyance.  I can sense that you have what it takes. You’re capable of tons more than just sitting on the sidelines and tossing snark bombs. You’ve got the ability to truly contribute and make a dent in at least one of the problems on your own personal CERM list.   So, that’s it. Life is all about creation.  You are a creative being.   Therefore, it’s your responsibility to outweigh destruction with creation – to counterbalance decay with improvement – at every possible moment.

Hey, what do you mean you’re pointing the finger back at me!?   You’re asking if I’ve made any dents on my own CERM list?  Fine! Not that I have anything to prove, but rest assured that, from this point forward,  I’ll work on creative solutions to Endless Transformers Movies and Couscous.   I think I’ll start by writing to my congressional representatives  (I might mention the debt ceiling impasse while I’m at it).
