it's like the most beautiful breath
like my title? Credit goes out to a great guy named Rosy. Inspired by Dustin O’Halloran aka my music of the week man. It's 11:10 I'm eating twizzler. Quite possibly my Favorite candy ever made. I'm not a chocolate kind of gal, yuck. re- Dustin O’Halloran- I strongly recommend him to you laddies and gents.
I can watch it over and over
John Cassavete is a smart man.
I have this strong feeling I failed my Apology of Socrates by Plato quiz in philosophy. And it's a shame because I read. I even had my dad read a few pages because I could not comprehend what Plato wrote. So much wisdom... I want to soak it up every bit of it. Socrates was a smart man. I just couldn't hold the information and I was nervous... so I think I failed. Anyway more about Apology: I dig Socrates's method of philosophy- 'Elenchus' . He examines a person with regard to a statement he has made, by putting questions to him calling for further statements, in the hope that they will determine the meaning and the truth-value of his first statement.So in a narrower sense it's a form of cross-examination. But gosh darn he is so smart! I loved how he started the apology off: "I know that I do not know" I know I'm self aware yet not so self conscious. Knows the limits of knowledge. This man certainly walks the talk. He disses the court makes them look stupid.... tells them what his sentence should be doubles his charges picks death over exile. Tells them he will pay a small amount. Constant slaps in the face but the way he does it is so clever. He believes that questioning one self is the best way to live. He believed true authority is human reason not gods,state, family so on. An unexamined life is not worth living. He is all about truth this man. wow, I just strongly admire that. For him Philosophy isn't an occupation, nor a hobby but rather a way of life. And that's what is art is for me. I will literally wither away If I don't have art. I love this philosophy class... Don, the teacher is amazing.... he yells. He is passionate about what he does... And that drives me to learn. Usually I'm a clock watcher in other classes. Ahh sorry these paragraphs have no sentence structure what so ever... but I'm just jamming with my thoughts so suck it. Here is another drawing I did in Art history while the teacher was lecturing. I dropped the class the next day.
