Last night I wrote something greater much greater than myself. Something I hope inspires a myriad of comments soon. I opened a debate that an Artists is as much spiritually needed as a preacher. Please read what I wrote. It’s not as stupid as it sounds. I even thought I must be going off into theory land with the scientist after I wrote it. It’s when you think about it that it occurs to you everyone is important even though they are just a drop of water in the ocean. Let me know what you think. I just want you to know I don’t normally write this stuff but now that I have, I just can’t delete it. It can’t become nothing. Warning it’s a little heavy to digest.
Illuminating Something Deep.
“Art is gathering experiences by any of the five senses. Artists interprete thought and feeling with unabated Passion and conviction. Then bravely, an Artist, no matter the subjects size or scope shares the experience by any of these same senses. Small things become great; great things become small. Hence artists become like a river or candle emitting light through darkness. Where it once was dry it’s now wet. Even a small candle casting light in darkness is awesome like the sun. The gift of the senses glorifies all Truth’s revelation by illumination, the lights reflected back in your eyes, sound is bounced back in your ears, touch has a surface, tastes is tested from something in your mouth, and smells carried are carried to your nostrils. This reveals the nothingness of Untruth proving it never existed but only has a name called a lie. The creation of an artist is worthy of great wealth but wealth matters not for a true artist. Wealth is nothing, it’s a lie. It’s the energy the artists spirit radiates in the process of combining the fusion of truth and their spirit which emits massive beams of light. An artist will know or learn turning any direction toward a lie or wealth will not illuminate their heart but leave them stumbling in the growing darkness. This is how I justify Art is a Journey. We must illuminate any truth we can discover because light can’t bounce off of nothing. We can’t stop because what is in motion must remain in motion. We can’t stop to illuminate a lie because nothing is death. Death therefore is the greatest lie and can only be avoided by truth and spirit. So the artists is as responsible for eternal life as a preacher.”
