How you flatter me! But if you can ponder the mysteries of The Great Chaos without going utterly mad, you are well above average, my friend.

Ah. Thanks. ^^;; I do alot of writing, and also, That is from my private collection of poems I've written myself, I don't see it as work i'd put in one of my books or base a story off of, So I have no problem with posting it. ^^ I hope she dose, And I'm glad i came here in a good mood too.

I am glad you are in a good mood as well. Grandmother Moon is on the rise and it is a beautiful night! atleast- it is where I live. How is the weather by you? It always greatly affects the way we feel.

@ Fushigi~ lol, honestly sometimes i do think i'm kinda insaine. maybe a new for of insanity, who knows lol, but you are very wise though Fushigi

@ cemetery~ welcomed as awlays :mrgreen: thats pretty cool, have you published alof of you own work yet?

@Bear: No, I haven't. I'm working on a poetry book, But I think it might wind up being a book of poetry and Monolouges since that's what i mostly write, and I do act sometimes, I just right now don't have a camera, If i did I'd make some videos and post them on youtube.

@Fush: I haven't been outside tonight, So I'm not sure if the moon is out or not, We had a full moon awhile ago, So i think it might be a newmoon tonight.

cemetery: It's wonderful that you nurture your creative side so well. Though I must warn you, be careful of who you do dealings with about publishing. I have had my poems stolen and a scam had one of them in a book, but they did that for every poor poet they took advantage of. They even gave fake awards, in the end all you do is spend money. Perhaps you have heard of Poetry.com?

Mit: My wisdom is only a reflection of that of mother earth's. if you listen to her, you will be granted the same gift.

@ cemetery~ well i wish you the best of luck with it. i don't know much about it, but you're defiantly got the talent and the passion so i know that'll take you far indeed.

@ Fushigi~ thats a very beautiful way of putting it.i do love motehr earth alot,i just have to open my ears more and let that wisdom flow within me

@ Fush: I neber paid Poetry.com anything But i still got an award, Now I'm kinda crushed that it's fake. :( I was so happy when i got it in the mail.. And Yeah I've heard of it. I'm kinda thinkin of looking around for professional publishing company, ya know something liget. But since I do acting Maybe I'll be famous for that if i get founded by a casting crew. But that's a wish.

@Bear: Yeah. I get my talent from my mom, I not only do that but I also paint. ^^;; I do alot of abstract work, but in my oppion, None of it is gonna be any good to sell to some punk who wants to look sophisticated when their bosses come over.

lol, well i'm a drawer myself, and i also do some poetry (working on one for this contest at the moment still) and i write sometiems, but i'm not too good and i basicly do it for myself and so others can see whats in my head. lol, but thats awsome. nad you can sell it to people who truely apreciate art, maybe even a museum someday, who knows. the possibilities are endless

@Bear: Yeah, But see My minor problem with all my work is, I don't think i'm good enough to be famous for anything. So I'm constantly pushing myself, Right now I lack a camera and a person with steady hands to help me do my mono's. I desire to be famous, But my fears are whats stopping me.

If I didn't fear that I'd become a snob or that my work would be commercialized, I would do it. I guess I suffer from Kurt Cobain's problem. He feared his work would be comcerialized, but he was also suffering under the weight of his own genuis so, He shot himself. If you've seen any of his journals, You could see he was a genuis.

I am sorry for bringing the harsh truth to your eyes, but I am glad you were spared most of the scam. But you don't need some silly shiny piece of paper to tell you that you have skill!

As far as other forms of art.. I am mostly a writer but I do draw, sing, and other various crafts. Most of my family is artistic in one way or another, but I still feel shadowed by my elder sister, she is in collage for art and has works in the local art museum.

@ Fush: It's okay, I'm glad someone did before it's too late,I'm just glad i never paid them anything. Well Congratulations to her then and to you. Maybe one day you'll rise up higher then your sister. Nice to know your family is artistic in some way, In mine we either sing, play an instrument, write or act, I play a tribal drum but that's purely for meditation reasons.

yea, well don't worry about being famous or anything like that. do what comes natural to your heart and let that be your guiding light. i think mostly everything i do sucks, but what keeps me going is that i like doing what i do. to me its a hobby. and if you look at your work as a hobby, then you'll be fine. also if you're worried about fame, just back out when things start to head in that direction. try to keep yourself under the radar of the big names and stick with the little leauges, that way you'll still be reconized for you work, but you'll also keep that humbleness and the weight of fame won't be able to crush you. but thats just my opinion. is easy to say, stay true to your heart, but with added preasure even humble people can walk that snobish path. but don't let your fears prevent you from doing what you love. someday you will reach the level of fame that you desire, just keep at it and don't let your fears stop you.

Cemetery: My I ask of what tribe you play the drum to? I am a mix of three Native American tribes, both my mother and I celebrate the traditions of them. Forgive me if I am a bit overzealous in my assumption, I just have hopes to reaching out for another kindred soul.

Mit: Thank you for the advice, although it is not fame that I seek in anyway. I have just grown weary of everyone comparing me to her and expecting me to be at her level.

@ Fush: I'm only 1/8th Native American and that's on my mother's side, But i'm not too sure it's true and i really don't know how to prove it, I don't play the drum for any tribe. Like i said, For mediation and realigous leanings. I'm pagan btw. As some like to call me "Earth Worshiper" I don't see it as an insult but more like a "Yeah? So what. Atleast i have respect for mother nature."

@Bear: Hm, Yeah. That sounds pretty simple when you say like that. Now, All i have to suffer with is the over whelming fear of suffering under the weight of my own genuis and insanity... Most insane people are pretty much the brains of most operations.

I'm baaaccckkkk!!!! :D

So...3 pages?

What'd I miss?

:sweat: sorry bout that. it was kinda for cemetery. but its ok and understandabe to be irritated by the comparason. just continue to do what you do, and let your work show your indivisuality

@ missy~ welcome back missy ^^

@cemetery~ thats a pretty cool fact. but i'm sure you're friends won't allow that to happen. plus if you ever do feel like yours starting to break under the weight of your own genius, then take a personal break and back off for a sec. take a vacation and empty your mind of any stress. then when you're ready, jump back into it

must. keep. post. on. first. page!!!! Haha, Hello again people! ...

@Bear, Hm, Yeah. I only have one friend that would do that.. the others might but i'm not so sure, This girl i like kinda inspires most of my poems and monolouges... But I don't think she knows it.

@ Bear: YOU'VE NEVER EVER HEARD OF HARRY POTTER PUPPET PALS?!?

*gasp*
