WHY DO SO CALLED NORMAL PEOPLE THINK ARTISTIC PEOPLE ARE WACKED?

I tell you SOMETHINg ENTERTAINERS ARE DIFFERENT AND LAY PEOPLE JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND. I want to PERFORM ONSTAGE with SOME MUSICIANS and ya Know WHAT? WHO CARES.... When PEOPLE SEE SOMEONE DRESSED BIZARRE or with HEAVY MAKE-UP THEY JUST DON't GET IT. It's ALWAYS this PERSON is GAY or MENTAL....MAYBE they are just ARTISTIC and they are EXPRESSING THEMSELVES. I REALIZE CONSERVATIVES THINK ONE WAY BUT ARTISTS,LIBERALS ETC>>>> THINK ANOTHER and REALLY I DO THINK WE NEED DIFFERENCES IN THIS WORLD. WE NEED FLAVOR....FOR IDEAS and CREATIVITY. It's LIKE BLEU CHEESE..... biggrin

because 'normal' people don't think of things in terms of their relation with other things or other ideas.

most people think in concrete instead of in metaphor.

people with an artistic temperament see something deeper in everything they encounter, and they try to communicate certain of those ideas in a way that's original or at least marketable.

'normal' people think this kind of way of looking at thing is a waste of time, and that it's more important to focus on your job, raising your family, paying bills, buying a house, etc. and yes, those things are important.

but some people are more left brained, and some people are more right brained. and some people are ambi-brained. and some people, bless 'em, have no brain at all.

even though the 'normals' might look down on you, don't be too harsh on them. artists need audiences. if it weren't for the 'normals', who'd buy our albums, see our movies, come to our plays, buy our paintings, read our books, etc.?

TRUE You SHOULD BE DIFFERENT and YOUR FANS DO NOT HAVE TO BE LIKE YOU AT ALL. I UNDERSTAND and It's BASICALLY COOL To HAVE FRIENDS WHO LOVE YA whether SIMILAR OR DIFFERENT. It NEVER HAS To BE A PERFECT WORLD. THAT WOULD be a World That has STEPFORD PEOPLE. ROBOTS. But well PLASTIC SURGERY SHOULD ALWAYS BE PERFECT ESP when ya PAY A FUCKLOAD OF MONEY...HOWEVER, COMPLICATIONS DO ARISE BUT I TELL YOU KNOWING THE TRUTH AND NOT BEING TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF FROM CHARLITANS WELL they PREY ON YOUR NIAVIETEE> I SWEAR that JEHOVAH WILL PUNISH because YA SHOULD BE TRUTHFUL. IF Ya JUST ABOUT MONEY AND NOT A PERSON'S FEELINGS then You are in MY BOOK EVIL. I FEEL YOU MUST HAVE COMPASSION FOR PEOPLE. ANIMALS. THANK JEHOVAH WE ARE HUMAN BEINGS LIKE PRINCE SAID In RACE.....Cut you..Cut Me BOTH THE BLOOD IS RED. ANYWAY..... Show RESPECT and YE SHALL ACQUIRE RESPECT IN OTHERS. Prince ALSo says DO UNTO OTHERS... So THAT is KARMA,I SUPPOSE. Or LEAVe it TO RECKON IN JEHOVAH'S HANDS. Peace...

1. There is really no such thing as "NORMAL". 2. Artistic, creative people are DEFINATELY DIFFERENT however. THATS what produces the creativity. Our minds work differently. We are sensitive, deep, sensual, analytical, and more prone 2 depression, and other mental illnesses as well. Look at EINSTEIN, GEORGE WASHINGTON, BILL CLINTON, HOWARD HUGHES, JOHN LENNON, etcetcetc..... PRINCE? smile cool These geniuses are/were plagued with mental problems/depression. 3. Without this integrated in them, they would not have contributed what they have. GENIUS=CREATIVITY=ARTISTRY=DEEP THINKING= ABSTRACTION=TALENT=CRITICAL THINKING=ANALYTICAL THINKING=GOOD PROBLEM SOLVING ABILITY... 4. These people are usually loners. 5. ALL of our SENSES are heightened as well. 6. We are definately GIFTED people compared 2 the so called "NORMALCY" of society. 7. However, this BEAUTIFUL GIFT we obtain from GOD can be a CURSE. It's NOT EASY. 8. Be thankful if you are one of THESE people, however. There are many reasons GOD made us this way. MOSTLY GOOD. ENJOY! ----- VERY GOOD THREAD SUBJECT ZELAIRA. smile .
May the BELLS ring 4 U even when ur not in love. hug kisses

see, there's no such thing as "Normal" or "abnormal". only what the world wants to believe what is Normal or abnormal. me being an artistic and creative person. we see and hear and feel things alot deeper and harder than most.

artistic and creative people have this rollercoaster of emotion that we can be the bouncy person then be clammed up and quiet. trust me. so no we arent "wacked" lol we just see with different eyes.
