We all are immense potentials, and only a few of us are actual achievements. I don’t want to be a potential any more. I am to be an achievement.
Sculptor Brigette Evill
Met this sculptor Brigette Evill, and today we had a nice chat in my studio. That’s her: http://www.brigetteevill.com She is great. Really like her work. It is so true. Talking to her made me realise, amongst other things, that the lack of experience in the “real world” outside with all the human interactions is incredibly obvious […]
Arts and Maths
What would you prefer to be: a young and inexperienced idiot, or an old and experienced idiot? I am personally at the transitional stage of old and inexperienced idiot myself. Arts and Maths. Nothing’s new. But new to me. As usual. I started thinking about it, but as my mom said to me today on the phone, […]
To stop. And shout your heart out.
That’s how I felt for a second. And then it went away. There was this artist who’s name I don’t remember, who kept painting eye injuries. In the end he lost an eye in a pub brawl. Let’s say, you are an artist. And you keep painting your nightmares. Would you be afraid that they […]
Let people die!
Why people keep trying to keep people alive? There was this article on BBC today about a girl of 13 with a heart condition, who refused an operation. The operation was very risky, might not have worked, and even if it worked, she’d be destined for the life on medications afterwords. She wants to die […]

Just another day. Is over. In 15 minutes. Yesterday I talked to God or the thing which is in charge. I asked for the ability to be here and now, for living the life 100%. Yeah, I just fancy living it 100%, like a few exceptional personalities do. Not sure that today was the day when the wish […]
Self?
It is impossible to escape oneself… But possible to never find out what this self is. They say, it is impossible to escape oneself… Provided, one ever found the way to oneself. The struggle is to find oneself. Then to escape it.
One Rainy Saturday
I suppose, I am living a rather special life, by managing to stay out of the rat. A month ago a word “cocoon” came to my mind. I was distinctly feeling like sitting in a cocoon, waiting. For what? For the wings to grow, for the body to change… For the change! Change started knocking at the […]
How about making yet another mistake?..
“A cowboy is asked: – Why did you decide to jump into that thornbush? – I thought it was gonna be OK!..” That’s me. My 4-year-old daughter seams to be following in my footsteps. The other day she jumped on me unexpectedly, as they do, and nearly broke my neck. I asked her nicely not to do […]
