Searching for Transparency

I imagine there’s a way to completely extract the best of who we are as humans and as artists, from all else that guides us.

When we speak of how things should be or write of how we hope they will become,  it’s the aspiration to fulfill that hope through prose, through verse, lyric, characterization, and hopefully eventually through life that drives us. And we seek such solidity not only to grow in ourselves but also to aid in growth. That what drives us towards life, might also allow another the same refuge.

The stories we tell in whatever form we choose to present them, can shape lives towards the inherently good clarity of what it means to be fully human. I don’t yet know the exact way to such transparency, but I imagine I’ll arrive there someday. I imagine all of us will.
