I want to be me. Only better.

Good answer.

I suppose my answer would be, "Enlightened to the point of no return."

Quote:"I paint self-portraits because I am so often alone, because I am the person I know best." Frida Kahlo

My self-portraits were telling, an angry man with a youthful face. I wonder if my artistic expressions will change, they're still dark in nature.

It's interesting to think about, this idea of "no return". But then I wonder about that too, and I really am starting to believe that we want to return for a myriad of reasons. But of course, it's only speculation.

My thinking is this: If we come from a place of pure love, we know it when we are there in that realm. And it's all good. But in order to share it and bring that nature about in those that can't see it yet, how does one do that? Aside from drop in to a place where it may be lacking to a certain degree. I don't know. If this is about balance, then in service, we come to share love, even in an unloving world.

I wonder if it could be desires that brings us back to realities like this?

Take like a desire to feel true love, or a desire to create true love.

Through exploration I discovered a desire to become an artist in this life, and to throw my accomplishment into the face of someone who had squashed my artistic desire in a previous life.

I'm sure that's a part of it. And we continue to better ourselves despite adversity. Good and creativity reigns. Heartflowers

Young. I'm going to miss my youth when I have Alzheimers in 60 years and when my back won't allow me to stand up straight.

Major problem to this is that the current young generation won't have the chance to be grown up!

At least maybe a pocket of them but nothing is sure.

I know I mentioned Dick Proenneke earlier as how I wanna be when I grow old but I'll settle for any peaceful death. I just want to die and want to do so at peace, having closure to any negativity and no massive rifts open in my life. I want to just die a simple man at peace.
