"Every Creation Should be A Masterpiece"
The first question that strikes my mind after reading this status update of a friend is "Does a creator think the same while starting something? Or is this just an another piece of effort he is putting up?"
Even after the successful creation, would it lead to the glory of a Masterpiece or will it just be a fiasco ??
Should our dreams/ ambitions end up in something unique/something which is not done before?
Homer Hickman(high school student,Virginia), a character from the movie OCTOBER SKY dreams of creating a rocket after seeing the launch of SPUTNIK by USSR.For the residents of a small town where the coal mining was the only source of earning bread, the kids were also compelled to follow the trail. Homer too was discouraged by his father, for the idea of creating rocket and to present it in a Science Exhibition. Despite of his serious efforts(with three other friends) to work out the Rocket model , he failed at several occasions. At the worst he had to give up everything and work in the coal mine to help his family after his father's accident.
But a school teacher, who had a firm belief in the children motivated them to follow their dream. Finally their efforts resulted in working model and helped them in winning the scholarship for further studies.
And their model was really a MASTERPIECE.
Were Homer and his friends sure about their success right from the beginning ??

The answer is NO, moreover they never thought or had any feeling whether they'll fail or succeed. They just put as much efforts they could and finally it showed.
The creator cannot judge by himself whether his creation is some Masterpiece or something ordinary.It is the satisfaction and the happiness that speaks for the creator, rest all depends on the so-called experts/judges to grade it.
