Heady stuff guys. Had to put on the old thinking cap, and yes I did have to go to the dictionary once or twice.

I find having to reread lines in this post and most others simply part of the package, no judgment made.

While I hardly consider myself an intellectual I certainly can pick out reading that is a waste of time versus that which feeds.

Perhaps i should feel some shame admitting that some of the ‘quality’ writing I read might very well be about watching a sunset. Thin stuff?

I suppose it depends on if the sunset story is written well, with sincerity.

Thanks for your challenging post! At least for me, perhaps what it most suggested to me is: just write your best, attempt to maintain and perhaps even add to the art.

Pay some mind to the critics but not to the degree that my desire and love to write are debilitated.
