Lately I've been really adamant on making sure I draw in my journal every day. It's easy, the sentiments are more straightforward, and I guess it keeps my wits up. As I do more and more of these drawings, I realize that my captions (and therefore writing) are becoming much larger. Today I pondered something in my journal that I usually leave for the blog: political meanderings and dia-dribble, thing is it was also very personal. There's no doubt in my mind that this country is flushing itself down the toilet, and if I were to leave it would be fully justified.
So if I were to describe the drawing: its a plane, and its encountering various symbolic clouds that represent my family and friends, my home and things, my education, my money, etc.
And the caption being:
So I value freedom as my natural right in life, but I asked myself, "Live Free or Die!" or "Life shackled and down-ridden with your friends and family around you!" When I put it to myself, the answer is very clear. I can't leave.
Unless some one/people would leave with me, then it would be a party.
