These days, I feel less and less inclined to write. I'm not much of a writer to begin with. Lately, I'd rather post pictures. Slowly this blog may turn into a photoblog instead. I stopped uploading pictures to Flickr awhile ago, and back in July a good friend of mine bought me a Pro account for my birthday! That place inspires and intimidates! I still visit there for information and see my friends' creations, but for me, I'll just stick around here in my own little world.
These 2 pieces are actually part of an assignment from this Adobe InDesign class that I'm taking. I'm supposed to pull 2 song lines from a particular song. I picked one, but later on I couldn't find images that I thought was appropriate... and I might as well use my own images at this point. I pulled these lines from a version of Tao Te Ching. The course will be over next month. yay!
Earlier today I took a picture or two of the so-called 'self-portrait'. When I was tweaking them, I thought to myself: "I look so sad." But I thought to myself: That's okay cuz that's just me. I look how I look. Maybe that's just how I feel.
Anyway, I wish everyone a good night and take great care of yourself - and each other. xoxo

Those are good lines! Once you give something a name, you've changed it from something timelessly real to a mental concept. Categorising thus creates a separation that exists only in the mind. It's the start of the fragmentation of reality.
Freedom from the mental merry-go-round, then, is when we stop trying to name everything. This doesn't mean you have to stop writing though, so long as you write from a place of peace.
Cool, isn't it? :)
