inspiration 101

Sometimes, when I'm rambling, I actually think, "Can I possibly be saying anything at all that makes sense ? Does it resemble truth, or is it truth?"

And this is how I feel...

I heard myself saying, "Art is the inspiration for life, it's the glue that holds everything together." What? Seriously, creating, spiraling into the zone of creativity, well, it's a place where my thoughts reconcile themselves into an emotion of color and motion, and suddenly I'm faced with my inner thoughts in visual form and well, I begin to wonder "What could have been so important, that I only created mud?" This is what happened the day before I graduated with my MA in Creative Art Therapy. I painted and painted until there was a slight resemblance of a story, but then again, it was revealed in a red, muddy painting that got stuck to a garbage bag.

I have yet to revisit that painting...

Oh, another random thought, I'm listening to Carolyn Arends' CD from 1997, titled "Feel free." This cd was purchased during my freshman year of college. Man, I'm dating myself....

So, check it out...it impacted me then and it came to my mind a few weeks ago and I looked for it, but I couldn't find it. I was cleaning my desk at work and found a goldmine! Actually, a blackhole.....now that I'm really thinking about it....
