You have to start somewhere. Pick your spot and make your move. Know that the road will not be easy and you will be spending a lot of time alone. Once you get over the fact of being alone in your quest, you will feel more a part of things than you have ever felt before.

Life is a poem, a movie, a story as individual as one can imagine. Within the framework of life there exists ways to make your dreams come true. As long as your dreams are realistic, anything is actually possible. But dreams have to be deeper than money or fame or prestige-these things work just fine in the movies. They have to fit into your primary life, not the life that exists inside your mind (relating to media images and sounds). The dreams inside your mind, how you relate to movies and television programming; how you place yourself inside the story, are part of what is called The Secondary Life. It is fiction. It is where unrealistic dreams are manufactured and processed. The primary life is the day to day drag of having to do things you may not like doing for the sake of paying bills. It is difficult, but life is a poem in a movie... part of one great story.

Some people feel everything. They feel everything to the point where it hurts. They empathize with other people and feel their pain. This brings about anxiety which is caused from not paying enough attention to the self. But how? How do people just turn themselves off to the plight of other people? How can they learn to pay more attention to the things that have an effect on their own personal lives.... not in a selfish, uncaring way, but in a good way? Practice, practice makes perfect.

There is no pride in living a life for the shine in the eyes of another. If you want to be a good example for kids, for example, show them what it is like to follow your instincts and act with presence of mind. Teach them how to be respectful, thoughtful and kind. Teach them to follow their minds eyes and allow the symbolic gestures of the natural world to show them the way; the way to silence where the archives live and breathe stacked tall enough for more than the eternal glance. In those pages lie more than words. Inside the archives lies the love of many people who are no longer with us. Few of them lived the life of another.

even if you feel everything in your heart you are one of the lucky ones... as confusing and difficult as it may be at times. the spirit world has a way of coming into our lives so that we may catch a glimpse of what real color looks like and what real bliss feels like.

There is a difference between loving what you do and being in-love with what you do and how you do it. Loving what you do means that the process or activity itself is what is the most fun. Being in love with what you do means that everything about the activity brings satisfaction. It is the activity plus all the people the activity affects that brings the most joy. An artist is someone who is in love with what he/she does.

originality isn't something that can be manufactured. Originality is ugly and full of mistakes. It is sometimes difficult and always interesting. I love the original people. They remind me of classic films.
