How about if, instead of raining on each other’s parades,

we offer to share our umbrellas*?



*particularly apropos for *me*, given my geographical location...although, at this moment? the sun, she is *shining* upon grasshopper's happy, upturned chitinous visage :-)

Commenting here as I can't find the other thread.

I missed intuitive intelligence. There is not a academic understanding that some people have the ability to come up with an answer to a problem with out the necessary information which defies the odds.

Everyone has the go to bed and wake up with the answer. I wonder if the difference is some of us can do it when awake. I do know intuitive intelligence is not respected and there are few models to follow. Public school only teaches what can be taught.

For me my intuitive intelligence is only valued when people are in trouble and I am solving for them. What is interesting is afterward they turn it into they solved it and it was done in a way they could have done it.

I have come to accept that I see the world differently. I also remember it differently as I see different things.

It is funny everyone thinks I am an artist. It is kinda like I am the only one that does not know.

I am beginning to think my left brain is not that shabby either. I just do not like using it as much.

I forgot. I think Andy W. Work is very representative of him. He is an asshole and it shows in his work. That people buy it is also representative of assholeness. I am liking that word.

Picasso said "I spent my whole life learning to paint and then had to unlearn so I could know how to paint."

Dylan knows he lost his ability to write.

I opened my mail today and there was an invitation to a drawing class by an artist that I know and like. I am thinking of going to see her and tell her I would like to take the class but I am going to be stubborn as I am afraid that I will lose my ability to just do things. If she does not understand I will not take the class.
