God the beauty of words. Of art. Of expression. There are films, scenes and songs that I will watch and listen to over and over again. Not for the sake of memory or repetition, but to be moved. To know that there is more than this day to day drudgery. To escape the mediocrity of existence when it becomes too difficult to examine insecurity and fear.
There's a part of me that just wants to create something beautiful, something thought-provoking, something so ugly in it's honesty.
Something to expose.
The flaws of humanity, the inevitable nature of death and the unpredictability of love.
The unstable and rocky terrain we build all our fragile little dreams on, in the hope that somehow, something will let it all hold together.
The reality is life will break you. It will happen suddenly, but it will be ongoing too. Life is not meant to be easy but everything that is flawed possesses something worthy of examination.
Just as the earth brings, hurricane, storm and unrest, it reveals clarity, brightness and colour.
Is that balance? Life and death, happiness and sadness, love and everything that is not love. Once you remove all the intensity and the passion and violent anger.
Once you remove even your fickle dreams and misgivings and old fears
In the end all we want is to
be satisfied.
