found this quote over at barbara's site and wonder what you think?
No writer writes out of his having found the answer to the problem; he writes rather out of his having the problem and wanting a solution. The solution consists not of a resolution. It consists of a deeper and wider dimension of consciousness to which the writer is carried by virtue of his wrestling with the problem. We create out of a problem; the writer and the artist are not presenting answers but creating as an experience of something in themselves trying to work - "to seek, to find, and not to yield."
Rollo May
...being created from the love of God and continually being loved by God are not enough for us. We want and also absolutely depend on the explicit confirmation by others of the life given us by God. We need God's love for us to be met, confirmed, and extended by the love and affirmation of others. That is why when people feel unloved by others, it is little consolation to tell them that they are loved by God.' Paul Waddel

Yup, like it. Especially this part,
"We create out of a problem; the writer and the artist are not presenting answers but creating as an experience of something in themselves trying to work - "to seek, to find, and not to yield." "
