Writ on this Date, a Monday, the Seventh of February, in the Year of Our Lord, Two Thousand and Eleven:
My concentration in the arts and writing is really just a consequence to my higher aspirations. Essentially, I long for more than my heart can express, to re-fortify into the human spirit beauty, dialogue and creativity as cornerstones of life. As fundamentals into our very existing. I feel this virtues above all else can help strengthen ties that may have been strained, assuage wrongs felt by all demographics, and heal deep and longheld wounds that have affected us all negatively as a species. The reason for this, I feel, is that these virtues are encrypted into our very souls, and are the best way at achieving a common human spirituality without offending or insulting any ideological or political group.
I wish to affirm these sentiments as succinctly, broadly, and expediently as possible. Therefore, the art, the poetry, the essays, the stories and the galleries and exhibitions I have created or desire to are all ancillary to that aim.
By the very act of creating alone, one can ignite a spark in a worlwide paradigm shift for the better. The basis of which I hope to attain (and afterward, maintain), is that temporal, spatial, and causal matters are not the only things meant for or requiring human concern, nor do they alone satisfy the potential that lay within the capabilities of the mind. There is much more out there for us to realize. Those three things may be necessary, but they are not the complete picture, nor can there ever be a complete picture, but it is firing in our veins the very need of a fuller picture.
In that sense, however, they become obstructions for many of us. If we can only see the spatial, temporal and causal as means and not the ends, then what have we?
Freedom?
A relinguishment of boundaries, limitations, and ceilings we feel have been set but do not know were never really there?
The problem is not that people are not ambitious enough for their societies or there cultures. The problem is that societies and cultures are not ambitious enough for people.
Now since it is people who make up society, I intend to alter this longheld misconception. And I intend to do it, one person at a time.
In the meantime, buy my books, and read my blog!!!! I COMMAND YOU!!!
Just kidding…slightly.
Respectfully submitted,
