Urgency

Daina Oniunas-Pusić says this of her latest film: “It was a story that presented itself before I necessarily knew where it was coming from or why, and it felt very urgent for me to develop.”

Consider the feeling she’s describing.

I don’t yet know where this is coming from. I don’t know where this is going. And yet, it is calling for my participation. It beckons me.

Creative prompts present themselves in many ways. Sometimes the vision and path are clear. Other times, we navigate through a compelling mist.

How we travel (or hide) tells a lot about who we are and what we seek.

Where do you feel creative urgency? Where do you sense urgency in life?

What is your reply?
