Dedication, Like Art, Is Creative
I was thinking about art today and found that most of the art that I enjoy is very earthy in look and feel. I really enjoy looking at plant life and even modern day constructs and just getting some kind of energy from them.
Have any of you ever done something similar? One can even look at their ceiling and get a new perspective about them. I have, many times, looked at my ceiling -- a ceiling that I have viewed countless times during my every day travels -- and noticed something new. I have felt like I could walk on the ceiling without any special means. I could just move about without any problems and think it was completely natural.
But, how does the relate to art and dedication? Art is something like the creative process the brain goes through when it views something like a ceiling. One is able to provcess that information and see it in a different way. Sometimes, I think that we all fail to view problems from different mental angles or we can't seem to determine what is right or wrong for ourselves.
Lewis Carroll put it like this in Through The Looking Glass:
CAT: Which way are you going?
ALICE: I don't know which way I am going?
CAT: Then is doesn't matter which way you go, does it?
So, if anyone is even remotely following my train of thought, if we do not remain dedicated to the creative process in everything we do -- what is the point of going ahead with life. Don't ever get caught in that rut in life. Don't ever not be creative and lose everything that makes us real. Do those silly things that liven up the day. I have read too many of those tiny books with all those "suggestions". Cutesy things. Anyway, enough ranting...
Anyway, there is some message in there but what it is I can't explain it very well. I also see you guys thinking that I should be sharing whatever it is that I am on.
Just think, you can't share being high on life, or even being sad on life. It is an uphill battle for all and we have lost the ability to share in the fight.
What? Well, uh, there you have it.
