I tried & tried to CRY.
As promised ;)
Nothing came.
Got me thinkn!
It wasn't that I was sad, angry, or MAD.
I was frustrated.
And that felt the same inside as just wanting to CRY so bad.
I sat in it.
What I came to was that my frustration was justified.
Nice.
My feelings were justified.
I was frustrated bc...
I did a stand up set that got ZERO laughs.
It was brand new material.
It was vulnerable.
It was exposing.
My frustration was a result of my not being able to convert my funny ideas to the audience.
I had these incredibly funny concepts. That I was trying to translate.
My ideas were HILARIOUS.
But the way I translated them came out as:
Zhou bsy bsk wuoa qjla mbdj...
I could see...they didn't GET it.
It's not their fault.
It's mine :)
I have to figure out how to ARTiculate my funny ideas!
Here's how it goes...
I have a funny idea.
I write it out.
& hone it to make it as clear as possible.
I perform it.
They GET it.
Or
They Don't GET it.
I feel satisfied when I am able to translate a funny idea in my brain.
I feel frustrated when I am NOT able to translate a funny idea in my brain.
That's OKAY...
I need to embrace the frustration.
Work Through It.
Keep honing the idea until finally it's able to be translated.
Today, when was the last time you felt like you spoke a different language then all those around you?!?! FRUSTRATING...riiight?!?
Did this experience help you learn a new language ;)
The beauty is when...
art becomes ARTiculated;)
