Planting a seed

Posted on Sep 1st, 2008 by The Onyxx  : Ecstatic Shaman The Onyxx

Last night Jackson and I have watch the movie L.A. Story by Steve Martin.  It was very well written and acted, it was quite a fantastic surprise actually.  What a delightful romantic comedy it was.  I’ve discovered to what extend that Steve Martin is actually creative and interesting.  What really blew my mind away is a scene where he does some performance art by rollerskating a whole choreography in a museum without being caught by security.  His best friend is videotaping the whole thing.  I felt something inside; a warm comforting feeling that arose and that has been growing and filling me bit by bit since.  I have been feeling rather down the past few days.  Actually this is an understatement; I have been paralyzed with fear not able to face the outside and at the same time struggling because I have been feeling claustrophobic.  But that movie did touch something within me that needed to be awaken.  I’ve said thanks many times to Jackson for a very nice time and for introducing me to a fine piece of artwork.

I’ve come across Yoko One Blog at  100 Acorns. I invite you to check it out. This is another of her projects that is so simple but so effective to deliver who she is. She invites people to comment on her daily post.  I’ve myself left a message denoting my appreciation of her creation:

“Thank you for being you and for bringing your life force into the world by making creations like this one.  You are a true inspiration. Finding this 100 Acorns today has brought me a perspective renewed. I feel better and I can now envision again all the possibilities available to me. A seed has been planted in the past and I was struggling to grow into being myself as a full being and as an artist.  I have found some nourishment in your art; I am very grateful to you.”

I will be taking the time to take a pen and paper and ask myself the questions that needs to be asked.  I will keep my hope up and I will give myself a chance to be alive again.   I have looked up on Wikipedia the definition of Performance Art and it brought me some ideas about what direction I might be taking in the near future.
