Feels like forever since I logged and blogged. =]
Just moment of thought..
If grass is greener on the other side... it must also mean that grass is browner on some other other side..

I can't stand mopers, sulkers, and small minders. They put trash out in the world which which makes us even grimier. We already can't see through our own dirt, let alone have some other people crap in our faces to worry about.. Sigh.

thinking what Art means

Whatever happened to writting mail and putting it on mail slots? I have to conform if I want to survive in this techy world.. =]
I'm blogging because.. What else is there to do in this world Finky?

Art is .... (what do you think?)

To me...
Art is anything and everything.
It's beauty that is created or natural.
It's aesthetic that is man made that becomes natural.
It is defined only by the subject and the object is as only as priceless as its beholder.
Art is words twisted into pretzels and seen as the most magnificent simplicity.
Then in silence, it holds peace.
Art is crazy and at the same time, defined.
It is refined and absolutely abstract.
Art is you. Art is me.
Art is a monster that Roars in your belly.
Roar.
