Random Friday Brain Fart

if only the majority of our Cree youth shared the same feverish collective enthusiasm towards real issues that matter; which concern our people's wellbeing and our territory's future just as they go apeshit over hockey playoffs, poutine, pin night, and lest we forget, cough* Nickelb@ck shows. I see clearly that brilliant potential in where everyone can stand peacefully together to voice our nation's spirit. Sit like an owl long enough, you can grasp a glance of the bigger picture. Just a random Friday brain fart.

random thought of the moment

secretly wishing there was a way to stop time and simply paint for an eternity...
however, in the real word...

there are still more readings to do,
draft those papers,
My mind is already fondue,
Yet my thoughts have become like dreamers.

Some Lessons by day,
more prices to pay,
vices to keep at bay,
No more time to play,
All of this leads to the inevitable decay.

Insomnia

Estoy muy contento de haber dormido en realidad esta vez. Fue una buena parte del tiempo también, nueve horas. Esperemos que este descanso será que mi mente va a escribir y crear en la actualidad. Tener un buen domingo mis amigos.

Weekend Blitz

It's been a busy month, just started my summer job (doing monotonous-office work - gotta pay the bills right?) and I'm taking summer courses in order to catch up with my credits. Picked up a few mags on my way home and came about this interesting article in Adbusters - Journal of the Mental Environment Issue 84, by Stephanie Bailey on "nihilism / optimism".

Yet another blog posted a copy of this piece, do check it out.

I haven't created any artwork lately because I'm still in the process of gathering creative flow (that's my excuse). Who knows, I might be going through a lazy phase or maybe I need a holiday from the city life...

A question that keeps repeating itself in my mind is: What da fuck is Art nowadays? What is the significance between the culture clash between Western society and Northern Culture? Is there even a culture clash? Seems like it's all blended into a mixture of glorious non-sense again.
Long live the egoist.

It 's been three years since...

I've spent the whole day doing my errands that I almost forgot about today. It has been three years since I OD'd, suffered a heart attack, died for a time unknown, [blank], then woke up feeling like I just got up from the morgue - that stupid december 19 night... Shit, time flies. It wasn't exactly the best experience in my book, nevertheless it's a lesson learned. "Cheers to Life and a F*** You to Death!" Wonder if that's what Jesus was thinking when he resurrected?... Most likely along the lines of "ouwaah, kaw"

I guess I'll die another day.

News: Hell on Earth's Top Ten

Top Ten Ecological Disaster areas around the globe... (green.sympatico.msn.ca)

Guess what's no. 6? James Bay, Quebec! This is what I've been trying to say, Hydroelectric Power isn't the cleanest form of energy there is out there (despite their efforts in their latest attempts/ ads on TV). I would know, I grew up in that area. Not only did it affect the environment, it also affected the people, the Crees/ Iiyiyuuch on a physical, psychological, emotional, and on a spiritual level. I am always weary to drink from the tap, or consume fish from the river whenever am back up north.

Disrupted Harmony only breeds Chaos and Confusion. I couldn't ignore this article, and it's pretty much just a general summary of what the true details are. The photo links in the link above only has limited photographs, the rest is yet to be published. People need to educate themselves more on where their energies they utilize on a day-to-day come from. Take what you only need. Leave the rest to replenish itself. The northern 'lifeless' wilderness are nothing but. They are filled with life, people and natural splendour!

Can't help but it just reminds me of dense sadness on a collective scale. Most people try to ignore it but the feeling is must too strong to deny. Iiyiyuuch are stronger than we seem, its just the matter of digging deep within to find the strength and courage to keep on striving through this reality. Modern Civilization is the both a blessing and an awful curse. I hope it crumbles under its own weight like any other past 'great civilizations' in history - rebuilds itself anew, learning from the mistakes of the past - for the next generations to come.

Iiyiyuuch, a literal translation is: simply human. If one human suffers in one part of the world, there is a butterfly effect rippling on the other side of the coin. This was my 2-cents and random mental rant on something I read during my afternoon break and commented on. akuuda, muujiktaa, buutheejaa!

my random thoughts of the moment

Attaining wisdom through all the filth makes ya wonder why you dived into it in the first place. There's a lesson hidden within every mistake and without acknowledgment of your fuck ups - what's the point of learning and growing?

Fear is just an emotional obstacle, in which I believe everyone has the ability to overcome and conquer. I'd rather be Fierce than fearful; its the only way to blaze through this BullShit/Darkness and into the Truthful/Light.
