there's this.
I just started experimenting with an iPad pro...and making digital art.
when I posted this particular piece, I was met with a question by someone....they were a bit poking fun at me, I think. I'm guessing.
they posted, "Believe in what? and
or something like that. I've deleted it...
but I responded with...
"(person's name) look inside, you have the answer."
my response was met with their lash out..."get real".
I am real. I'm not sure I could get any realer.....you are real. He is real. She is real. We all are real.
my optimism is real, just as his pessimism is real. It is all real.
My hope is real.
What if everyone in the world walked around, hopeless and pessimistic. The whole energy of the masses were sad and depressed...we can see what happens when people spread hate energy. Say good-bye to humanity.
the world needs people to 'get real' with their hope and optimism.
I hold the space for this, for light....against the dark.
It is my purpose. Spread love and hope and messages to believe...I do this through art....I do it through random acts of kindness....
acts of love.
hope not hate.
People who spread fear and hate....do they really know what they do? to the world? They satisfy some passing fear in their life...by acting with fear...but
they contribute to despair....is that what they want in the world? it's like....you want this wonderful world....ok, let's look at it like a block of real estate.
you want to live in a nice neighborhood. We all do. But you walk around throwing rocks in all the windows....and wonder why the property value went down.
Same with relationships. You want a great relationship....but you continue to bring down the property value.
Instead of planting plants....you piss on them.
and when I told them to look inside. I meant it. Why are they asking me what? and how? Simply....believe. Believe in yourself and believe in love....believe in happiness. All these things are found inside yourself...the answer is with nobody else. You start with yourself...and each and every person showing up with this belief.....changes the state of a whole.
I know that person was just trying to draw me out....so they could throw in some crushing blow. It is clear they have a different mindset. I deleted the comments they had because, I wasn't the person to verbally tell them what's what....or walk onto their island of pissed-offness. some things, you just know. and I'm not the person to reach them. That wasn't my job....not them...not that day.
so yeah, get real.
I am. I'm getting real.
the world is full of confusion and fear and hate...how do you want to handle that?
I plan to stand firm in the space I'm holding with love and hope.
it is never to late to bring up the property value...but it requires consistent effort.
peace and love....and getting real.
