Art

 

One form of art is self-expression.

Self expression is that which has no agenda except to express itself, and ideally should not be concerned with the aesthetics of the self-expression.

However, even in this self-expression, there may be an effort to express only that which is beautiful within oneself, and then this makes it a valid form of self-expression.

The Diary of a Fruit Detective

Yes, I am talking of fruits - the ones that grow on trees and vines.
I like fruits, but hell, I notice that eating fruits causes one to bloat up, and creates gas and all kinds of stuff.

Enough is enough, I decided today that I felt like going on one of my periodic info-hunting trips.

I needed to know why the hell this happens!
Should I sue mother nature?

And this fascinating roller-coaster ride of a story climaxes with the emergence of an unbelievably powerful teacher, the likes of who are seen very very rarely on this planet - Jiddu Krishnamurti.

No Substantial Voices Here...

Also, and I might have just been in the mood for this sort of thing–searching for reassurance that this can be so–, but their fights were never “this is the end of us” fights. I liked that. I hate yelling and fighting between people who are supposed to be in love with one another. But I am learning that it can be borne–that it is inevitable, apparently–even by me. I still hate it. But that someone can still love me even as he is angry as hell at me…well…I am expanding my definition of loving, I guess, to include this.
