I can SO relate!! I battle my need to be perfect every single day...and the depression/despondency/bad mood that threatens to rise every time I am "imperfect"! It's a struggle ... but it's one I am becoming so much better at "winning". I even sometimes purposely TRY to be imperfect, which helps me to get in more of the habit of releasing control. You're right, it really is "only a small stupid drawing of a fox" and has absolutely no connection to your true value as a human, or even your "talent" or worth as an artist. Love what Katherine said too. Without our "failures" we would never learn how NOT to do stuff and thereby allow ourselves to grow :)Lissa Rachellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18218759399509635408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-832226541163693428.post-19933426235602129142014-10-06T13:23:59.931-07:002014-10-06T13:23:59.931-07:00Good for you Kathryn, it takes courage to take ris...Good for you Kathryn, it takes courage to take risks.
