我为“遗失袜子创意工坊”(LostSock Creations)构思的最新作品……
一只狮子和一只羔羊!……
但我的羔羊做出来一点儿也不像羔羊。
我装上眼睛后,它看起来像只猫头鹰……于是我加上耳朵,它又变成了猫的模样。
我顿时感到创作受挫!……就在我伸手去拿拆线器时,忽然灵光一闪:嗯……
我是这只“遗失袜子”的创造者。而我的创造者,并未因我不合既定模板,就给我一把拆线器。
也许,这对我而言正是一次“幸运的意外”(Happy Accident)。也许,我干脆顺势而为——就让它当一只小猫吧!
因此,我没有拆掉部件、硬把它改造成原计划中的样子,而是继续添加细节,使它整体更自洽、更统一。最终,我得到了一只名叫Pickles的猫咪袜偶!我超爱他!如果当初按原计划做成羔羊,我就永远也不会拥有Pickles了。
我们有时真该放手一试。别再一味遵循“事情本该如此”的思维定式,不妨另辟蹊径、偏离既定轨道。说不定,结果会比我们想象中更精彩。我的Pickles,确实酷极了!

My latest idea for the LostSock Creations...
A Lion and a Lamb!...
but my lamb didn't turn out so sheepish.
I added the eyes and it looked like an owl... so i added the ears and it looked like a cat.
I felt creatively defeated!... just as I was grabbing for the seam ripper I thought... hmmmm.
I am the Creator of this LostSock. My Creator didn't put a seam ripper to me if I didn't fit the mold.
Maybe this could be a happy accident for me. Maybe I could just go with it! Keep it a kitty.
SO, instead of elimination parts to make it look like my plan, I added more to make it go with itself. So, in the end I had a Kitty SockDoll named Pickles! I LOVE HIM! If i would have made him a lamb like I planned, I would have never had the pleasure of Pickles.
WE need to let go sometimes. Just quit following the was we think things should be and go down a road off the course. Maybe it will be better than we imagined. My Pickles sure is cool.
