I was flying home down the 10W, doing a carefully calculated 84 miles per hour, when I saw the familiar red glow of brakelights materialize in the distance. People were slowing down up ahead, but fortunately, there was still plenty of room between the cars. Without decelerating, I simply wove in and out of traffic, like a fish swimming through razor blades, until only open road remained in front of me again.

Whenever I work on a project, no matter the scale, there are always barriers of some kind. At some point in the project, I will be stopped by external forces or circumstance, waiting on something from someone else, or simply lacking creativity. When these events inevitably occur, I do not let them slow me down. I work on some other projects for a while, or another aspect of the project, and leave the blocked issues to my subconscious.

And so, when I broke two cameras last week, I took the opportunity to focus on a few other projects as I waited for repairs and my new camera in the mail. It is unfortunate that I fell behind a few days, but I continued writing, and I grew in other directions while I waited.

However, seeing as this is supposed to be a daily project, I forced myself today to go back through my archives of unused pictures, pick a few to edit, and throw them up. I do want to keep up the pace, even though I am blocked in this particular area, because it’s important to me to stay consistent as much as possible.
