Success

 Success

It comes late or early, a deep obsession and idea is based around it. Some gain success before death some gain after and some never at all. Did they achieve success? Do we pride it on being famous or the amount of money one earns. Success isn't a measure nor is it something to live by, you live with purpose and self worth and you treat success as something that comes from the sense of fulfilment. For what its worth a measure of success only kills yo quicker, depletes your bones quicker and drains you thinner. You will see, strive for it by all means don't pride your work over it, don't pride ones self of it as it should not be a measure but more a feeling.
I am not one anymore to paint for success , I paint because I cant stop dreaming about colours and textures, I paint to get rid of the thoughts that keep me awake at night , I paint to show how i see the world in which i stay for a bit. Success to me used to be how many people love my art, or buy it for that matter, but as i sit here i realise this kind of notoriety can come late or not at all. I have people and relations i want to see to the end , i have memories to look back on and forward to , so why i keep a measure of success in my pocket has baffles me tonight. I have let go of wanting fame , i have not lost the need to paint. I paint for people , i don't paint THE people; they already know where they stand in the worlds i paint. I paint the world they know but have never seen , i paint to now, make other people happy. I will give paintings away as a show of my love to that person, i paint for them to connect with them emotionally , i paint for the people i have lost, and i hope they see, and once again filled with life as just like i remembered them time ago. You see the world is beautiful , those who cant see that for whatever reason i show them my paintings.
Success is having the people that love me find joy in what i do for them, for those who aren't around me , one day they will see just how beautiful the world was.

The average

  THE AVERAGE The average man does not share , share not of his fear , nor can he see with his stare.  He is without attention or flare. the humble man can do no wrong constantly able to do right , but with a future not so bright how can others see him in such a light. Its for those to be sure of themselves that they fit a certain type , certain role , a certain hype.  But for this does not sit right. There was a boy who once said "is there a world where i belong", i said boy, you must be quiet and play with your toy , you are not ready for me to entertain you with such harsh truth that it would simply sit so uncouth. "you sound hoarse" the boy cried , if only he knew the tears i just had to hide. This world is not made for such men like you or me yet we need to fit in to stay away from the elite. Problematic endorsements through racial enforcement , sexual injustice in times where we preach quality and difference . A world sliced with divides yet no scars to hide b

Human Nature

 Human Nature A collision took place on a orbit due to a gas giant combusting, jarring millions of tones of formations together to create solid foundations. Foundations that ; in most case are uninhabitable , yet in some cases able to hold life, or at least the very basic necessities. Billions of years pass and people still feel unfulfilled , unworthy , unlucky , hard done to , need I carry on. I hear of people wallowing in self pity because they cant make a difference , I see millennials thrive to make an impact. Yet we fail to realise it was chance that put us here. Chance is what put us here and chance is what will take us out. Thrive over the wrong thing , cry over the smallest doubt, now look , clinically depressed for all the wrong reasons. But is there a right reason. For me , to thrive would be to do what makes you happy. But to thrive doesn't always mean to live , live comfortably or live at all, when did the value of thriving increase so much it forces us into jobs we don
