artists struggle twice than intellectuals.

It's fictional
There had been some buzz going around the blog-o-sphere for quite a while now, and somehow if you are a blogger you could feel powerless or powerful.

For artists, we pretend that this is our platform for our medium. Whether a visual artist, a writer or even a photographer. Yes we have all seen tons of different works, but all of this are merely fictional. It's composed and saved, it doesn't necessarily mean that its true. So why do we believe everything that we see?

Artists have powers
It may not be like the ones that super heroes have. We don't have the ability to fly or to read your mind. We just know where to hit you for your minds to travel, for you to cry and laugh. It is not actually believing but being humane enough to understand.

In one click you gain access to the world (or spam or a virus). But everything in there are not real, even history might be fictional in that sense. Not that i question history but because the arts are passed on ever since earth had flourished, how do we preserve it.

Since I was young, I am on the field of arts. I have hopped into one to the other. Painting, writing, photography, fashion design and whichever I wanted. That's another power we have, we can venture into one thing to the other with the assurance that we can go back to the previous thing we love.

Be careful with your powers
We are granted the power to tell, show and even brag to the world. But we should be careful with this ability, because its like fire in the middle of a forest. It's hard or it's not possible to stop the spread of it. Like powers of super heroes, we must know how to put em into good use. Thats the only thing i want to get across.
