Okay? Okay.


I need to know that I will be okay in the end.

Going through life with this constant fear 
of what happens on the other end
 isn't a good way to live.

That even though I'm going to loose people.

I'm going to be okay.



Right now I'm not okay with that.

Loosing these people I trust and can talk to about anything,
frightens me.

It's not even the fact that I know I won't lose them for good.

It's just the basic fact that these relationships won't be the same.



"You can still be friends with them!"

"You'll still go to each others weddings!"

"You can even see them once or twice a year sometimes!"



So you can try telling me we'll still be friends in the end.

And that very well may be.

But the fact is.

That friendship won't mean the same things that it used too.

The Message Conveyed An Interesting Way.


Art has two functions.

To teach and to please.

To convey a message in a way that's interesting.

That's what every good story does, no matter what medium it's told through.

Paintings.
Sculptures.
Literature.
Music.
Movies.

It's all storytelling.

Conveying a message in an interesting way is something I strive for.

I go out of my way to be creative.
I go to extremes. I chase ideas that may work or may not.

I'll admit. Not everything works.
Most of it doesn't.

But I don't want to be boring.

I don't want to go the normal route.

I want to be interesting.
