- Tell your story. After all, it belongs strictly to YOU. No one else can relate it in exactly the same fashion as its creator. Which is the RIGHT fashion, inasmuch as you gave life to the thing, so it answers to you and you alone. Don’t let others sidetrack you with serial criticisms and snide comments. There will always be naysayers in life—these negativity merchants are every bit as ubiquitous as mosquitoes on a muggy summer evening—but they don’t matter one scintilla in the big scheme of things. They are no more relevant or consequential than ants at a picnic. Irritating as hell, yes, but grossly irrelevant. Tell your story in the exact manner it pops into your head, and then sleep easily at night. This story is YOUR creation, YOUR baby, YOUR indentured servant…..and anyone who claims otherwise is a shameless usurper. Forget about those obnoxious people! They are nothing more than a pack of bumptious miscreants. Nothing more than immaterial assholes. Be true to yourself and your unique inspirations, and you’ll habitually do right by yourself and slumber well in the evenings. Tell your story to its rightful conclusion, and pursuantly climax the thing with the requisite appropriate punctuation mark. You are now done; the job is complete; the finish line has been reached. You have honored your God-given abilities and done well. Sleep trouble-free tonight, my friend, for you have definitely earned the right…..
