JUST PRETEND

“Just pretend, and after a while it will happen” …

Sound childish? … OR … “childlike”?

Some would ask “What’s the difference?”

OH … the difference is vast ….

Anything that has ever been created started with an idea … that became a dream … and then a vision … and then was “played” around with … and ultimately “happened” – manifested. Any skill that has ever been developed – first was the immaterial conception of someone who “knew” that it could ultimately be realized. Sometimes it’s our parents that instill these in us – sometimes it is mentors of many sorts. Eventually some begin to exercise their own free thinking and volition to play their way into a realm of reality.

The world is not fair … No shit Sherlock … But there is little use in bitching about it. Ultimately … it isn’t going to change. Because there will always be limited – little minded people who cannot see or think beyond the current circumstances. And as much as they may hold and espouse noble and high ideals of the way it can be and should be it is their failure to accept the fact that human nature eventually reduces to the lowest common denominator and “noble ideas” eventually become misplaced – displaced – forgotten. Because ideas are intangible, and the intangible takes place in the minds eye – before it can ever be realized or materially experienced. Something has to happen that calls that which is not - into existence. Few do this … except as it pertains to the absolute immediate … survival needs. But it doesn’t have to be so … If we learn to play again … pretend … fake it ‘til you make it … what some call miracles … often can and do happen.

Fuck the “real world” … I’m creating my own …

But you can live your life the way you want to …

Art ... seldom ... just happens ...

Art ... seldom ... just happens ... it takes work ... thinking ... experimenting ... applying skills and intuition ... but always having a vision or sense of what makes something complete ... so you rethink ... and try some new approaches ... play with the parts - to mold each one ... and sometimes scrap the the whole god damn thing ... And sometimes there is the ability to raise the dead ... So you re-think - redo - and don't make excuses for playing dead ... unless of course ... you really are ...
