This is my personal blog and social media outlet.
Born with an inate desire to communicate, motivate and to debate the issues at hand, I required a formal social media outlet to reach out to not only a larger audience, but a more diversified base of people and views. As much as my personal blog is about engaging with others, I realize that a personal blog site will necessitate myself to always strive for an even a higher level of social responsibility and to maintain personal equanimity. But regardless of my views, well intended misspellings and less than perfect grammar – I communicate.
We are all artists. We are all born unique, with a powerful gift to offer others. When we do exchange this gift with others, we feel free, our minds open to new ideas and we walk with purpose. Living with purpose is art. One’s art need not be music, painting or even something traditionally classified and regarded by stuffy critics as “Art.” For some it’s tutoring children, offering comforting words in private places or standing guard over something or someone important. And it may just involve changing some small corner of the world that has needed for it for some time. It is my contention and view that some of the greatest artists were Thomas Jefferson, Martin Luther King Jr. and Gandhi.
But after years of attending post-industrial modeled schools, whose sole ambition seems to be the creation of either drones, parrots or sub-achievers, we slowly become brainwashed into the false idea that we are not an artist and that we have no gift except to conform and to do what is normal. The result is that after “coming to reality” we are unhappy and unfulfilled.
This is not just my blog, but those who share my ideals and a vision for a better world. Hence, I will strive to invite to invite other views through guest bloggers. In fact, having guest bloggers is what excites me the most. Outside my family and spiritual pursuits, what I most passionate about is Marketing, Motorcycles and Personal Freedom. Coffee is right after those three, but marketing wise, adding coffee to my tag line seemed cumbersome.
To those who gift their art, we salute you.
