I took a class at USF that taught me that the original purpose of the Artist was to be the medicine man / woman of the tribe. That their purpose was to lead the tribe through the many seasons of life with wisdom and compassion and a prayerful ear on God. We were the ones in the back of the cave painting pictures on the walls and inspiring the tribe forward toward the hunt.

Many modern day Artists have become made to use their talents to paint/photograph pictures of toothpaste and automobiles in order to get the tribe to want the things that the world wants to sell. Some artists are very good craftsmen and create lovely things to buy. It is the rare One who is still the medicine man and I learned in that class that I am that rare one. Not everyone in that class or even many previous classes was declared to be the true Artist. I WAS signalled out and acknowledged by my Professor and the entire class.

It is not enough to carry within you the potential to be who you are. You must have the courage to actually Be It.

I am there Now and Today.

I hope I do what I am supposed to do and to say and convey what I need to; so that I fulfill my duties here on this earth.

I will try with all of my heart and I will pray that it will be of some good to some one.

thank you for reading this far

I am just a college student, who would of never thought that she would be writing just random thoughts or opinions.
It has just become a way of life for me to express myself through writing and it is GREAT!

The ones who read have read my highs and my lows in my life and I THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for taking time to read them

Thanks to those who read my pieces, as simple as they are :)

I love to write and also started a new blog on blogger. It is an inspiration and motivation. Sometimes it's best to share it here rather than with those around you who have yet to understand you.

As I'm sure you've gathered my names Eric. I'm twenty three years old and enjoy many things but mostly not at the same time. My interests shift quite a bit and I don't see things like the people that are in my life; not that others may not agree with me, but it seems it doesn't happen often. I guess we'll see, or not.
I want to get my thoughts and ideas out there to people that are interested; I want to do so in a thoughtful and love oriented manner, though that is increasingly difficult in some areas of life. I want to encourage thinking, the broadening of perspective and respect whilst writing here and hopefully I'll receive that in kind.

Let's not take life too seriously though shall we? It's all but a roller coaster at the end the day.. Buy the ticket, take the ride!

Like most of you, I am overly critical of my own work. Everything that I wrote two years ago makes me cringe today, and everything that I write today will likely have the same effect two years from now. In the past I have been discouraged by this, but as I get older I realize this is why I must continue to write. If I scoff at how foolish yester-me sounds, it must mean that I'm getting better, or wiser. I must produce the best work I can in the present, and look forward to the progress that the future indubitably holds.
