Land of La La

Ever get that feeling? That feeling where you just don’t feel like yourself. You feel as though everything around you is just passing you by. It’s as though you’re in a daze, but for days on end. Colors seem to blend, faces are all the same, time is slower but yet faster then what it normally is. It feels as though your head is empty. No thoughts, opinions, no nothing. Just your hollow head that tells you to put one foot in front of the other, but that’s it. It doesn’t tell you wrong from right. When you do the wrong, it’s not so wrong because you just worry about putting one foot in front of the other. There’s no problem with this daze, or at least while your in it. The problem is when you enter the real world again. Everything isn’t so easy anymore. Life comes around and smacks you. You’re up. Now you have to spend time trying to remember what you did while is this land of lala and try to figure out how to undo it.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

As I spoke about in class, Mattise got me thinking a lot about BEAUTY. Abstract are is beautiful. Sculptures are beautiful. Walking through MOMA, you look around and not everything is perfect. There is art that's very simple, art that's very complex. There's colorful art, black and white art. There's tiny little sketches, and humongous painting. All art is different. But, non less beautiful than the other. Kind of like people. We don't always look at it this way, everyone's beautiful. No one is any less beautiful than the next person, just different very much like art. This also ties into the play we went to go see. How could one person say they are any better than another just because of the skin they're in. I take the term beauty is in the eye of the beholder very seriously. I like to find the beauty in everything.
