the man is brilliant...
freedom....
If you need somebody, call my name...
if you want someone, you can do the same...
if you love somebody, if you love someone......set them free....
You can't control an independent heart...you can't tear the one you love apart....(Sting, If You Love Somebody, Set them Free)
sometimes we live with invisible chains...I may have mentioned this before....once or twice...
as I took out my watercolor artillery.....and spread the stuff out on the small table in the coffee shop...
it hadn't really occurred to me that I was about to paint what I was about to paint....to me....I was just painting.....
it really could have been an elephant. :) I realize it isn't...but I'm just saying...
and I realized....I had no fear or weird self-conscious bullshit to keep me from doing it....to paint whatever the hell I wanted to paint... without being weird about it...ha....yesssssss. who the eff cares, anyway?
sometimes you have to set yourself free....and if you love yourself.....set yourself free. get out of your own way...yeah....that's right....the person who keeps everything in a box...
you- know....
of the greatest, inspirational people, in the history of time, famous or not.... who stood up and gave a damn about what they wanted........which ones gave so much of a fuck that they decided to do absolutely nothing about anything.....
right?
totally right.
also....I really like the saying... "in my wheelhouse".....I don't really know sports stuff...but....
this shit is in my wheelhouse....
watercolor.
peace...and love.....and sweet freedom....hell, yes.
I just realised I haven't seen an elephant in a very long while... Do they still exist ?
