SPINNING PLATES
Editorial By Lisa Edson


I read an article posted by an editor of Cracked Magazine today who talks about how many of the countless comedians that he has worked with over the years were very tortured souls, desperate from a very young age to be accepted and not shunned socially in spite of their physical or social shortcomings.This really is a statement that I think we all can relate to to some degree. After all don't most of us start early in life creating the person that everyone else accepts and likes. And for artists of all kinds this is such an extraordinary challenge because it often goes against what we really feel like we are inside. The artist that is successful because he or she is able to give the world what they want is rarely the artist that he or she wants to be inside themselves. This dates back to the earliest documented lives of artists like DeVinci or Michealangelo. As an artist myself, I have pretty much resolved myself to never finding success as an artist and it isn't that I'm not good at my artistic endeavours. I am good. I've even made a little money. There are  lot of reasons why I don't make money in my artistic talents (that includes cooking, by the way). Economy, geographic location, timing, whatever. You could say, "Well, Lisa, you aren't depressed and you haven't tried to take your own life." Right. I don't because I don't have this terrible illness. Having both Chronic Depression and a need for approval is a deadly cocktail. But I think all of my artist/musician friends would agree that it is a terrible lifelong struggle for a continuous stream of ever increasing approval from others that we are all find ourselves strapped with. I
spent my first 30 years trying to get my parents to acknowledge me as an artist, then 12 years in a marriage, now I am simply baffled that for all of my talent at so many artistic things I still can't make even a meager living. I will probably never give up trying to prove to the world that I am an artist. The best thing we can do for the artists in our lives (family, friends, community) is let them be the artists they want to be. Tell them that they are great at what they do even if you don't get their art. Tell them that they are loved even on days when their art is not appealing to you but most of all, let them be whatever kind of artist they want to be and don't make their worth directly related to their body of work. Why, if Robin Williams was able to measure his self worth to be directly related to his body of work that was considered to be successful by us, he would have seen himself as King of the Freakin Universe. Instead, he was a scared, pained guy who always thought his failure as a man lay directly on the other side of his next ill received stand up bit.

Here is the total body of Robin Williams’ work according to IMDB. And yet he still felt as if he wasn’t spinning the plates fast enough

Won 1 Oscar. Another 54 wins & 67 nominations. See more awards »
