Somethings are only scary because they make me feel serene


SO TODAY 

I had a quiet revelation while attending Fine Arts Center, it has to do with the journal post of a dancing clown.

I think I realized that:

1. There is an acute differance between being awkward and embarressed, between acting in a way deliberately, and acting because in a way because we were made that way.
2. we are made the way we are and we cannot fight that we can only embellish.
3. We are all made from the things inside tadpoles. 


So I might be changing sites soon, I am unsure, I might be updating in two places, we'll see.


here is a rant:

I am telling my enviornmental class about fallingwhistles which is a project very similar to Invisable Children, but much more immediate? I think its something you need to look up for youreself (CLICK THE LINK) and view, either way its fascinating, and heart breaking, and I'm telling my class about it.

When this person in my class who drives a huge gas eating car and owns a lake house, talks about how Falling Whistles sounds like a waste of time, how those people are hurting the world more than helping it, how he hopes they die.

Look. I know that people can say whatever they want under our constitution, and that thats an amaizng thing but the thing is that sometimes people say these things and it makes me wonder about the capacity of human greed.

I also understand that in the end I am just as greedy as the person who is saying all these things, I am not a saint, I am not the dali llama, I am buying a dress from ebay. I am just as materialistic and awful and I am doing just as little to help the world.

The point of this well crafted rant: Go to falling whistles and read the blog, read the story, understand what its all about.
