Medium

In some delusional half-insane dream I had the other day, I came to an important realization about myself.

I already know that Art is my calling in life. It doesn't matter much which medium it is: paint, ink, pencil, writing, poetry; I do it all. But what I came to realize in that dream, and what certainly holds true in reality, is that there are FAR more mediums than the ones I do (I have NO musical talent whatsoever). There's one medium that stands above all others though. And that medium is Creation.

Think about it. I can draw ALMOST anything I could think of. I can paint almost anything I can think of. But what do I have when I've done that? I've created a picture of something. But not the actual thing. To be able to CREATE what I see, now that would be something! To come up with an object and hammer and fold it into existence, THAT WOULD BE ART!

That's what I love about art! it's the compilation of things that weren't there before! But If I could CREATE my own things, create energy and mass, well, what I could do would be limitless.
But alas, I cannot do that. I am no God. But I don't want to be a god. I just want to be the Genesis (Yes, I believe they're separate entities)

Ah, but Humans are so limited. Whatever though, I have something new to add to my list of things I wanna be when I grow up. I wanna be an author, artist, or a creator.
