Stop Waiting and Start Creating

When life is stagnant and you feel nothing is happening, you feel restless.  You want something to happen, you want that new video or new article to be posted.  Maybe you're waiting for time to pass before a big event or life change.

During these times it's easy to get preoccupied with things that only time can bring, and so the restless preoccupation can stagnate productivity.

When you find yourself here, you should stop waiting and start creating!

You are allowed to keep the pending things on your mind, but don't dwell on them.  Get up and move.  Get a burst of creativity and make use of it.  Write, draw, paint, read, make a video, do things you've been procrastinating, exercise, talk to some one, do something constructive!

Getting busy will make you feel productive.  It will take your mind off the things that can't come soon enough.  You will feel good about doing something, and also it will tire you out.  When you're exhausted from reading about Peter the Great, cleaning your gunky antique rifle, and discussing botany with your long lost cousin, you won't have time to wait.

Stop floating on the lazy river and go get in the wave pool.  After the park closes, you can go home.  Tomorrow, you can go to the beach and ride the big waves!

Mini Art Rant

Why do I enjoy post-modernist art?  Because it’s stupid.  That’s what makes it funny.  You aren’t supposed to take pm art seriously.  I look at it as a big joke.  The strange juxtapositions and lack of creative simply makes fun of itself. 

Those who look at pm art in a serious manner and then try to draw real, deep meaning from it are 1) trying too hard, and 2) likely morally bankrupt.  When you have to look for meaning in a canvas splattered in paint, you clearly are empty inside.  And it’s not their faults.   

Moral relativism has turned people into nihilistic hedonists, annoying those who like to think for themselves with “cynical laziness”.*  Deconstructionism has destroyed true beauty in art. 

1:30am art rant. Done. 

*Not my quote, but the best way to put it.

Also, reread this in an annoyed British accent if you’d like to get the full effect.  I tend to think in a British accent while writing.  Strange, I know.

Two Ditties

Two wee ditties that originate from my Irish great grand father, whom I never met.

1. Way out west on the wild marine, the wild cat sat on the sewing machine.  The sewing machine sewed so fast, it sewed 48 stitches on the wild cat's tail.

2.  A peanut sat on the railroad tracks, his heart was all a-flutter.  Along came the afternoon 409, toot toot, peanut butter.

Typically after each saying, a small bit scatting is done.
