This sign is on one of my favorite motorcycle rides. It seems so much more than a road sign. For me, it was an invitation to do some creative work. Dangerous? Well, I could make mistakes, I could not like the finished piece. (It’s just a piece of paper.) It also might be an interesting ride, if I can get over the fear. A little danger can be fun.
A lot of creative work is dangerous, but passable. the ride takes some skill, but that’s the fun.
Journal prompt: In your creative work, what seems dangerous to you?
