In essence, the theme of expressing my feelings, attitudes and understanding of specific aspects of the world around me are direct reflections and interpretations of personal experience. The struggle is never about the actual expression of feelings, but rather understanding the motives behind these emotions.
Complex, who isn’t? Romantic, possibly.
Individualism is difficult to fathom only when one is grounded into a ridged set of structured beliefs.
I don’t like.
That is a sentence I seldom approach.
My job as a writer and a film maker is to use my life to explore other people’s lives. I discover things, people, experiences and events. A colossus myriad of different emotions neatly tucked away. In doing this I become a better person. I certainly don’t know everything, and have recently created an aversion to any form of denial.
If I was self-centered and shallow minded; in even the smallest sense, my work would suffer and my creativity brutally slaughtered. It’s hard to write about yourself with out sounding repugnant, pompous or cocky. But in the same breath you don’t want to come off as shallow, egotistical or anti-social. At what point do you say its time to not fear the audience. You can’t please everybody. I’ve found that accepting your gut reaction to your own written words is seldom the best gauge of success. I can bounce back and forth between multiple readers with multiple interoperations and never falter. Why? Because I know that deep down the dark Goth girl still loves white bunnies.
The most interesting people I have ever come into contact with are the quite ones. The ones that have nothing to say when surrounded by society’s perpetual spring break mentality. Everyone has to be alone sometime, and it’s at that moment that you are the most attractive.
Is that cool, I have no idea.
What I like.
Is a sentence that denotes a lifestyle, a sentence I do frequently approach.
And I think I like it all. If you have done it. It must be interesting.
Finding interesting experiences is as simple as introducing yourself to the next person in line. Because it is more then likely that they can lead you to one.
It is entirely possible to be so flexible enough to absorb the countless combinations of unique attributes that constitute a single person.
