1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,720
Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction, unplugged because we will always say

2
00:00:03,799 --> 00:00:07,040
yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes.

3
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,240
So turn it into a tool. This is arrow unplugged.

4
00:00:10,359 --> 00:00:13,119
Here in Carolina, there's a scene that we live by.

5
00:00:13,519 --> 00:00:15,759
Stick around for five minutes. The weather, trust me, is

6
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:20,000
going to change. Yesterday it was blistering. It was a

7
00:00:20,039 --> 00:00:24,399
nor'easter that felt like a flood with dipped, very cold temperatures.

8
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:28,440
A beautiful sunrise today and much warmer tempts. That's what

9
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,559
greeted us in the forest today. It always reminds me

10
00:00:31,879 --> 00:00:34,119
of what it's like to wake up after having a

11
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,399
very painful headache the night before, that feeling of being

12
00:00:37,799 --> 00:00:41,280
set free. Putting focus on the moment is learning how

13
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:45,840
to recognize what is your now? Ask anyone around you,

14
00:00:46,119 --> 00:00:49,079
and it becomes a challenge because it's not an easy

15
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:53,439
task to look beyond a materialistic series of walls and paths.

16
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:59,280
What is in your now? Do you physically feel the

17
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:04,120
presence of unhuman energy? The rays of light, the scent

18
00:01:04,239 --> 00:01:07,799
of a late fall, the touch of the dampness, the

19
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,680
call of the distant crow. They're present. Why aren't you

20
00:01:12,519 --> 00:01:15,760
in your now? Hey? Taro. This is the Daily Mess,

21
00:01:15,799 --> 00:01:18,480
A chronological walk through in everyday world. I am a

22
00:01:18,599 --> 00:01:22,239
daily writer. I am a silent wolf. I sit beneath

23
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,719
the brush of a tree and I just watch life.

24
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,480
You watch and learn from other animals, learn from the

25
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,280
curve of the wind. You learn from the rising of

26
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,079
the sun. There's so much to learn, but too often

27
00:01:35,439 --> 00:01:38,079
we just keep on walking. Yeah, I'll deal with it

28
00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:41,239
later when I have more time. This is the daily mess?

29
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,200
How easy is it for you to be you? Constantly

30
00:01:45,239 --> 00:01:48,079
we think nobody can do what I do. I often

31
00:01:48,159 --> 00:01:51,120
wonder if that's a horrible way to walk. Are we

32
00:01:51,239 --> 00:01:54,599
trying to make it difficult for other people to be us?

33
00:01:55,239 --> 00:01:57,480
It would be nice to share a conversation with someone

34
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,560
who's doing exactly what we're doing at the level doing it.

35
00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:04,760
When you say nobody can do it like me, it's

36
00:02:04,799 --> 00:02:08,360
almost like telling your circle of friends, I'm being selfish

37
00:02:08,439 --> 00:02:11,080
right now. All of this belongs to me. Go away,

38
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,879
teach your path, learn to embrace others like you. But

39
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,439
most of us don't, out of a fear of losing

40
00:02:19,479 --> 00:02:23,520
what we have. Is it really losing or is it graduating?

41
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,599
I write every day mainly because this page is part

42
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,919
of everything that I do. Documenting the path in writing

43
00:02:31,199 --> 00:02:34,919
serves as an invitation. I want to be like you

44
00:02:35,719 --> 00:02:38,599
show me the way, and I'll show you my way

45
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:43,800
so that we can have that conversation. How easy is

46
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,400
it for you to be you? And we've all said it,

47
00:02:47,439 --> 00:02:50,879
Like I said, nobody can do it like me. Okay,

48
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:55,199
that's great. I love that. That's positive. That's courage, that's confidence,

49
00:02:55,439 --> 00:02:57,639
that's taking that energy that you bring to the world

50
00:02:57,719 --> 00:03:00,520
and saying, look here I am and this is what

51
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,919
I bring to the picture. I love that. I love that.

52
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,520
But to be you? Are you teaching you? Because like

53
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,039
I said, it's a very lonely place in a creative

54
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,479
world when you don't get the opportunity to sit down

55
00:03:13,479 --> 00:03:16,439
with other creative people and the only thing that you've

56
00:03:16,439 --> 00:03:20,120
got in your hands is what you've created, but you

57
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,000
didn't invite anybody else in. That's the beauty of life.

58
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:28,039
That's the walk that is sitting there inside that storm

59
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,439
that we had here that nor Easter, and learning from

60
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,639
that storm that there's always a story. Now share it.

61
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,120
I'm MARYL. And that's the daily mess
