Starting and Finishing

It's easy to start something new; a relationship, a romance, a life, a story, a painting. It's not so easy to finish. My computer is filled with half finished stories. My closet shelves are overflowing with supplies and half finished projects that died from lack of desire or the will to complete them.

Trying to succeed in the middle of real life living is not easy. The hard work of doing -- of sticking with something to the bitter end is difficult when the motivation and passion get sucked right out of you by stress or lack of money. Beginning is always easy. Starting over is hard. Finishing is even harder, but there's nothing like it.

Finishing a project, a painting or a story brings with it a great sense of accomplilshment, pride and satisfaction. sort of like the delicious feeling of finishing a dream in the quiet realm of half sleep before waking up, when the power to change the ending is still in your hands.
