Description I watched this video [link] and the ones that followed and it struck a chord with me... or I projected my own feelings onto it... either way it brought out this image and thought

A lot of us here know that same frustration that comes from doing something creative for an audience and feeling like your not reaching them. Just wanting to share what you have to share in the most effective way possible. And the pick me up that comes from that interaction when you put yourself out there and the audience comes in and gives you some of the commentary love, there are few things more energizing than the "audience hug"

It started sad but as you watch the videos and see that he is getting feed back from the audience you can see him get re energized So poor Milbee that lead to a happy ending

It is one of the hardest things to try and connect and put stuff out there and feel like your missing the mark. But good on you for beiing one of the people who took the time to give him feedback and take part in the "audiesnce hug"

I think a lot of people can understand that feeling of disconnectedness so I am glad we both took the time to make an effort to show the connection we felt

YEAAAH HUGZ PLZ!! o.O Yeah, I totally know where he/you coming from... I keep trying and trying but often just feel like I'm not reaching my full potential or when I do nobody really seems to notice....but I think that's possibly the nature of what we do... we're always improving so we're never "good enough" cos as soon as we move forward we're already reaching for the next level. Same with comments/feedback.. we very quickly get used to the level of feedback we receive so it never seems like as much as we'd like. PLus I think DA has become a bit of a desert for comments since rolling out the group platforms. These days everyone just favs and runs.
I think all we can do is do what we love and keep on hoping that others will love it too. `:] ..oh .. and of course.. hug the sheep!

Indeed, i think there is also the element that developing a relationship with an audience is something that takes time and a large breadth of work to accomplish. So it is def something you have to keep slugging away at and hug as many sheep as you can of course
