woot. wrote my first "song". more of a 6 bar melody really, I'm still not too sure how long it really is, cause i hate figuring out rhythms. Oh well, it's all good. The only real problem is, i have a sneaking suspicion that I've heard it before. :P

whoa, another 6 bar melody! And they both sound like repetitive annoying theme songs from crappy hallmark movies!

thoughts to myself (as always), but open to all.

At 6/10, i talked about my lost of will in work, because of the lost of meaning of it in referance to my original ideologies.

But now, I've had more time to think (again), and I've came up with adjustments to my old theory. The reason why i say stuff like: "seperation of emotion and logical judgement" is actually, i believe is a misunderstanding with myself. Now lets see if I can phrase it better: What I really meant was a lengthing of one's eyesight. You see, judgements must be put into context of the main goal (which happens to be far away), what many people end up doing, is that they let closer desires cloud their way to their ultimate goal. See, they are all emotions, all desires, except that the ultimate one is so far away that people often get lost. However, judgements and work should be made directed towards the ultimate one, making your ultimate desire a kind of a conclusion in deductive reasoning (except it's kind of backwards from there). Which is why it's kind of a logical process, free from your fleshy/close/recent needs and desires. (urg, not making much sense, too subtle of a thing to work out with the tools of my language tool box)

I think that making poems, drawing, and other forms of art can be used as a way to fill the hole made by the emotional needs of the moment. Kind of a shrine, to the sacrifice you made to yourself for your goal. This, at the same time serves as a way to look back and also as a waypoint towards your goal, making sure you have not lost track. It can also keep your sanity, successfully expressing your needs and emotions while not getting in the way of your ultimate goal.

This is all easier said than done, in fact, if all people could do this, this could be an amazingly productive world. Imagine, whatever your ultimate goal basically becomes your meaning of life, and what joy to work diligently towards it. Of course, i personally believe the goal should be placed in religious (christian) context, however, I will save you a sermon for another time... But whoever it is you want to be, whatever it is you want to do, whatever you want to do for the world, never lose sight of that ultimate goal.
