Bright Beginnings...Predictable Endings

Over the years...many people have flown by me...scenarios involving my work as an artist...from "let's do a video involving
your singing"...to..."we want to use some of your music in a film we're doing" etc. etc. The first contacts from these people...are always complimentary...the projects intended spoken about in glowing terms. One out of many of these approaches...actually bears fruit. The rest of the time...the bright beginnings vanish...with the passage of time. What this does...is it causes you...over the years...to react with a certain reserve...to these scenarios offered...knowing you've been down this road before...rather than start doing cart wheels...the moment you are approached. Maybe this is just about the way things work in this world...with people with their own agendas...sending up trial baloons...left...right...and centre...with the hope that one out of many will come to something. I listen politely to these offers...and continue generating my own projects...not based on anyone else's creations...knowing who I can depend on...when the bright project baloons floated by me...have all drifted...out of sight.................................Quester.
