"And so it was that the bush burned with a great fire, but was not consumed"

I'm an emotional massochist and exhibitionist. There's a sad irony that keeps following me around, so finally I put it on a leash and gave it a name. I keep it in my pocket now and touch it when I need to be reminded that I am an artist, and the path of the artist is not smooth. But then, neither am I.

comments: "It's how I make my choices? I consider the consequence, understand it, and still choose to do what I do. It's like I'm on a highway with a sign that says, 'Heaven this way' and I decide to go off-roading"
