Thoughts

So I'm still learning, and I've got the general feeling of I don't belong here, that I hear is common among people in talented disciplines. The worst part of it is that I'm not sure one way or another if I'm just insecure, or should be doing something different.

One thing I know is that most people don't know what they want to do for the rest of their life, until it's mostly over. I also know that part of the reason to feel like this is that risk like this is hard to judge until afterward.

Unlike Robert Frost's narration I'm actually taking a road less traveled. He did take a road less traveled but the poem's personage didn't.

In other news the newspaper is dying and I'm pushing it into the coffin.

Neon Lights fade for a moment

I'm working right now on some pieces for an art show next week, and school projects besides, I don't expect much but the experience has me thinking how a person metamorphs throughout life. We go through the usual experiences of childhood, adolescence, young adulthood, adulthood, and elderly, but those are trivial to me.

The changes that interest me are the decisions that turn us down one path or another. Movies, stories and the like act as if your decisions can be subconscious, or forced by fate, but those decisions don't change who you are. It is the ones we make knowing full well that there are other lives, other people that we could be that make me think.

Prostitutes in Nevada are looking for a tax to be put on them so they can gain some form of legitimacy as an industry. This is a decision to become society instead of a fringe part of it. I wonder when though did people decide to become the edge and what makes them push to take away part of what is them to become something new.

Shows like "House" say that people don't change, I can't believe that.
