Can you be more specific?
So, I at least have two readers left! Hi Beth and Chad. How goes it? Don't work too hard and stay cool forever. xoxo - alicia
In continuation of yesterday's blog, I would beg the question, "should" we wait per say? What "should" we do?...alas, stated with a bit of sarcasm. How does one display sarcasm on blogs anyway?...(insert sarcasm here)...?
Part of my resistance to being happy has to do with my disappointment in the failure of my fellow human to be any different than we are. We are Americans. We are shopping for apples in March, we are disposable clothing, we are leisure time and luxury, we are jealous and driven by money, not love, not spirit, but money. SO when the money is compromised, when we can't get what we want when we want it, we wait for someone to come and fix it. We call the toilet man and the toilet man comes and fixes our toilet. It's not in our nature to be self sufficient in a real way. It's not why people move to America! We are culture-less and therefor our capabilities are limited. The reason people are so tense and on edge is because we know we can't handle it. We know ourselves, the depth only goes so deep, we don't have the strength and we are going to eat each other, and ourselves!, alive....(insert sarcasm here)
Happy Friday.
love,
alicia

i am thinking of quitting as an artist- even art seems culture-less and vapid these days-
possible alternatives to being an artist include running for city council, or developing software that will have limited capabilities and run on old slow computers, so that people won't have to keep buying new ones. and it will be designed so that old people can use it.
any thoughts?
Doesn't mean it will happen this time, but is something I'm holding onto, it would be sad to let the panicky money-dependent americans ruin this for us artists out there by stomping our spirit- don't give up, because that means that they won! nooooo...
but yeah this country's seriously in the crapper.
gotta try to be one of the few people smiling. why not? it's the only thing I can afford to do. ;)
i read your blog, when i remember i know how to read. which is approximately once a week.
and that's only because i don't understand "subscribing" on a computer.
also, art is necessary. it just is.
