kill your darlings
a great feeling i think, is to be able to transcend all planes of thought untill you reach a state of nothingness, where there are no worries, and not a single care. the only thing that matters is you and where you are. i know i'm great, i doubted it before, but i know for sure now. i'm good at what i do, and i am exquisitly unique. im one of a kind. i love it. i look at people around me and know that they know where i am and where i stand. i love it. i love how i have things that i need and want, not in excess but enough that it meets the needs. a loving wife, a new car, computer, a cozy apartment in a safe neighborhood, friends and family that would do anything for me, and versa-vice. how i passed a review that ultimatly determined my future fate. i am me. i love it.
no it's not conceitedness, or cockyness. i never said i was the best, and i know where my faults and errors lie. there is always room for improvement, and i can always learn something new. some people are able to get 1600's on sat's and go to law school and study and wear suits and ties, and you know what most of them are probably leading wealthy stressfull lives and the only satisfaction they get is when they sip their starbucks. thats not me..it's never going to be...i'm an artist i paint with words and sculpt with digital media, i provide an alternate view to things. i think and see things differently than most people i know. i love it.
