To the gifted ones...

to get angry at the injustices.. possibly nessisary.. but what are we doing to ourselves with this anger? Don't let them push your buttons.. you are much more than that.. much more than a knee jerk reaction.. look not to others for comparisions... for where you are suppose to sit on the map.. you sit on your own map, everyone has via perceptions their own maps.. the maps are maps, or prisons.. but then some of us prefer maps without bounderies, what are those bounderies? Belief systems, dogmas, religions... that ideas of "what will other people think?".. and naturally "why don't I fit in?"

draw your own map.. remember that you make your own rules.. remember if you program your belief system and hold tight to the idea of you being anything more than a prepetually flexible and percpetive being..the intelligent animal who has the greatest capacity because of its ablity to love.. and believe in love... let us all understand the lessons we find ourselves living within.. so that we may escape the class room of life and get on with the living..

and remember that the illusion of money is simply a belief system we must universally dispell.. after all.. in certain disaster.. heat, water, electricty.. food and transport what are they all really???? will they all simply disappear when larger percentatges of people have no money to pay for them??

Will everyone be kicked out of their homes because no one will be able to pay?? certainly someone has to gain from this if they really wanted to.. but then.. what is it all really.. just because you live in a city or out in the land.. doesn't mean that you are safe from this or that.. what one must worry about is the fact that people are willing to do most anything to keep that illusion.. and for me personally.. all I have seen in the validation of that sick illusion of money has been nothing more than sadness for the lack, greed and death for and from those who are so hot to aquire just a little more of it....

And what is it? it is a bit of value someone else has assigned.. you can agree or disagree with it.. but the end remains as such.. just as with the art world its all subjective.. with a basic outline such as minimal wage.. ect.. (but not when it applies to art you understand.. not when creative people give their soul to a project day and night)

And labour is something to admire.. to work harder.. not to create or imagine.. simply daydreams for the idle..in this society... as a whole.. artists are both the worst and best of people..in this world of "real work".. we are admired for imagining for the whole of the consiousness.. to dare to take up such a chore for those who dare never to imagine... to have others imagine for them. They pay to be entertained they pay to "feel" something.. to free themselves from this storm of a world they consider normal..to take themselves to a paridise or drama of someone else's creation..

but doesn't it take the ablity to IMAGINE to even build a house?.. something of a creative endevour..to create a computer programe.. to be a doctor.. to be anyone who takes place in the human arena..

Somewhere along the line the value of anything is subjective.. what you are willing to pay for it is what is valued at.. think of VanGogh.. certainly he was considered a no less than a genius in his paintings but as all artists... the prices his works have been valued at extremely high amounts of money only due to his lack of presence - his life empovershed and now a romantic ideal of the Suffering for one's art--

the art without the artist to "spoil" the intent always equals money.. the artist alive and well.. to explain his intent always leads them to be valued less unless this artist is like Barnium Baily and can sell the "greatist show on the face of the earth".. ok.. how about ME? I am the greatist show on the earth!! ah but I don't believe in that system.. I give away too much of my self.. where people would pay.. instead its a system of barter or no barter.. I just give it..

Bartering isn't even fair you know.. its based upon a subjective system of asigning value to objects and items.. possibly just as bad as money.. because once you assign value you become tainted with this kind of value system..

So the hours of your day you trade to hold yourself imprisoned to a job that takes you away from your family and home-- if you are lucky.. you are doing what you enjoy so that the value of that.. the doing your joy, following your bliss is offset.. you do what you enjoy.. this is the most important revolution any human can take part of.. but how many just simply find themselves pursuing a job due to the fact that it was the only one they could get for the amount of the money they get paid...

The prison of your reality is making others suffer.. from the point you say "I'm paying for it" to justify your control.. or someone else doing the same to you..

reality is thus.... here we are.. don't provide the illness of assessed value the tools to control your life.. no matter how it goes.. everyone subscribes to it.. try to stop and get a perspective of what it really IS.. define it yourself..

I said to a friend asking me advice concerning money.."money is an illusion, there is nothing but subjective value to back it up.."
"Oooh so you think I should invest in gold then?"...

ah.. I am as mad as a hatter... mad as a march hare...This rabbit hole goes down a long long way.. does it not?

I think what you're referring to here is (one of my favorite words for it's succinctness and perfection) paradigm; it means one's total perception of the world wherein they live, and how they must conduct themselves. As far as our being admired by the whole of conciousness, I think what people tend to admire, is something they don't fully understand; creative people tend to be more connected to the universe. We may or may not understand where our creativity or talent comes from, but we accept it when it flows through us, and we trust it, or we are forever blocked. I find this connection more and more all pervasive in my life to be honest, even in my more seemingly mundane dealings with people. This is what I believe people find in religious leaders. Look at Moses, Jesus, Mohamed.. even Rev. Jim Jones, they were all connected to the universe. Unfortunately, just because people are connected, doesn't mean they necessarily use their connection for good... then again, do we really know what is good or not in the moment? Perhaps the most horrendous atrocities in history happened so that something great could come about a millenium or more later.... ah, but I wax philosophical....
Anyhow my love, with that said, I must go make dinner... I was waiting until I'd finished burning a CD for a friend of mine (the essential bruce springsteen... yeh, I'm a boss fan... wanna make something of it? :P )
I look forward to your next missive... take care and stay warm.

I hope you don't mind, but I wanted to post this on your blog, as I'm trying to post it everywhere I can... of course if you do mind, I suppose you can delete it :)

NEW MANIFESTO FOR CREATIVE EXPRESSIONISTS
We the creators, pledge to adopt and adapt the following:

-To imagine new outlets of expression

-To break former boundries created both by ourselves and others

-To reset parameters so that other less brave or less creative individuals can express themselves within them, while they’re learning themselves and growing their own brave senses of self expression

-Not to be ruled by preconceived notions of ourselves, our world, or our artforms

-Not to be confined to only one venue of expression when we might find another medium or style to be more fitting at any given time

-Never to be confined by any external genre, culture, subculture, religion or platform

To add to this list as necessary or desired.

Together, we will create a movement of forward movement in creative expression, and no, that wasn't a typo. We will not be ruled in our expression by any central person, style or other dictum. We will recognize that only by being true to ourselves, can we be truly artistically free.
