Can a realist be deep and dark and still stand for those who can't stand up for themselves? Speak for those that can't be heard? Looking beyond the surface of things for absolute truth. Just another creative artist that thrives on creative works through writing, photography and collaborating with other young talents.
So many experiences both positive and negative, anger and loss. I don't hide behind anything or anyone. Life must be experience to the fullest by all means including all the bullshit that comes along with it. Communication and self-expression is the key to understanding all that's around, happened to you and experiences you'd endured.
My foundation is all the good and bad experiences that has defined the person that I am today. Perceptive study of one individual's understanding of my human condition. Developing nervous breakdown, symptomised by my bouts of unexplained depression, impulsive spending and generally odd, and erratic behaviour. It's a psychological battle.
Does society have an 'ostrich in the sand' mentality, a deliberate ignorance of the emptiness that can characterise human existence? Beginning to probe and investigate my own sense of emptiness and isolation, before finally declaring that my world is full of 'phonies' with each one out for their own phony gain, or am I actually the one who is going insane, or is it society which has lost it's mind for failing to see the hopelessness of their own lives?
I'm just one of those creative-minded who'd sustained a passionate affair with the world's capricious imagination. Simultaneously possessed and separated from the 'real' world by body, by the flesh that has been rifled, forever estranged from a soul that is no longer my own.
I've circled around loners, rebels, and kids roaming on the borders of society. Feeding off the anguish and beauty, both emotionally and consciously blurring the line between fantasy and reality. No matter what happens, we are all still viewing the world in this prepetual state of wonder.
Life's about taking that big chance that you'd always wanted to take and don't care what happens as a result. Living with regrets is not really living, but to live any other way takes personal courage and a touch of authentic madness.
I'm not an enigma just a contradiction.
Visual Communication:
There's such a lack of responsibility for one's actions in the world, selfishness, and a great destruction in the way people live their lives. It's all instant gratification, and who cares how my instant gratification affects those around me, or on a small personal level or a global level. The way people treat each other is truly disgusting, and we've created an environment through advances in science and technology that allows for a very septic society to thrive. And we breed and breed, and all the wrong people breed while all the right people don't want to have children because they don't want to place them in this world.
Our generation is the first generation since its sexual awakening has come into the world, and realized that sex can mean, ultimately, death. That has had a very serious effect on social morals and on the way people deal with each other. With current times, people are getting more and more confused, and contact is getting more and more sanitized, so there's a lot more mental games being played.
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone that defies conventionalism by making a statement of encounters, characters, views, meaning, perception, and reality of individual existence. Discerning the absolute difference with deep existential questions in life's mysteries by becoming the main character. They truly live to inspire!
There is something about yourself that you don't know. Something that you will deny even exists, until it's too late to do anything about it. It's the only reason you get up in the morning. The only reason you suffer the shitty boss, the blood, the sweat and the tears. This is because you want people to know how good, attractive, generous, funny, wild and clever you really are. Fear or revere me, but please, think I'm special. We share an addiction. We're approval junkies. We're all in it for the slap on the back and the gold watch. The hip-hip-hoo-fuckin' rah. Look at the clever boy with the badge, polishing his trophy. Shine on you crazy diamond, because we're just monkeys wrapped in suits, begging for the approval of others. - Guy Ritchie
Hi Joey!!! I identified myself with lots of subjects in your profile. I'm a big fan of Allan Poe and Oscar Wilde too. I hope we can be friends. A kiss ( here, we kiss a lot ) from Oporto, Portugal
