.............and ME!...........
I reckon I'm getting pretty good at pretending I'm an artist. Then again maybe I am ruly and truly. I mean not an artist in the true sense of the word like Picaso or Michaelangelo, because I can't afford a paint set, but in generic terms as in someone who is dabbling in the arts,particularly writing. Now I'm not sure whether writers of blogs qualify for the Booker Award but I have published my first book, and written some pretty spiffy (is there such a word?) poems, not to mention the songs which will make y'all rock the whole way to heaven! Hmmmmm..... But you know what the really coooool thing is about me and my writing. I'm actually enjoying it, which is a big change from anything I have tried up until now. Let's take yesterday's blog for instance. I didn't mean to write what I wrote, if that makes sense! I was intending to do a D & M on LOVE using some info taken mainly from Dr Victor Frankl, a legend in neurology and psychiatry. Well I got the title done as I planned and then I was in this sorta frivolous, jocular mood and I went completely off the track. I wrote it in 15 minutes because that's all the time I had at the Library. But the thing I liked about it is that I had a good time! And THAT, to me, is very important.

Writing, I have learned from my book writing experience, is a very spontaneous process. When you are in the mood, when all the vibes are right, you are at PEACE with yourself, then you cannot get the words out fast enough. But there are soooo many times, as any writer will tell you, where you can just sit in front of the computer for literally hours without touching the keyboard. Oh so frustrating indeed. But the PEACE part to the art (a poet to know it!) is as important as the ability to write. If you don't have a clear head, Fred, then you just 'ain't gunna get the words out, or if you do they won't be right. When I found Mister SomeOne Out-There, my inner self, it was then that I could vision the writer in me, not before. Because I found myself I have been able to passionately pursue the peace I so desperately sought. Through this inner peace I have sought knowledge in all areas of my life, particularly spiritualism and mysticism. I am not even close to being where I want to be but the calmness and peace I am attaining gradually is opening up the doors to the gifts that I have now been given. These gifts are a direct result of my own inner PEACE, although not yet complete.

.........all you need, well sort of.........
So what's luuuuve got to do with it? (Well thanks for asking Tina!). Everything. Because the LOVE that I made light of yesterday, that fuzzy wuzzy and warm kinda love, is only a little of what is necessary to find yourself. There is a lot more. There is finding YOU, or in my case finding ME. Even if I had been in a beautiful relationship it would not have helped me. You see the LOVE I am talking about is the LOVE that is transcended through Universal Consciousness, or what I call the Oneness of Being. In other words the LOVE within the PEACE which will then provide the fulfilment to create the ART. So hold onto your seats dots, because the more at peace I become with myself and the more LOVE that I can SHARE with myself and my consciousness then the better the ART is gunna get. And that means the upcoming songs, and books, poems and lots of other creative stuff. And that's because the PEACE and the LOVE are the direct path to CREATIVE through the Universal Consciousness.
Pretty coooool, huh?
