Artists are disciplined and Peaceful
by ashok ch nayak on May 15, 2007 10:47 AM

As someone said once: Anger permeates the room. When you walk in with anger, everyone feels it. Lose the anger and you may win the part.--
Yes We all have Art and a Life. And a desire to share.

It is startling to realize how much ferocious anger we could harbor. The artist wishing and supposing herself/himself to be peaceable, is rocked by anger and that anger surprises. She/He thought she/he might write about love, but what pours out onto the page is pure vitriol.

She/he thought of expressing philosophically and what appears on the page are torrents of fury.

No, the artist is not immune to chronic, even disabling anger: but while she/he cannot avoid it, she can strive...to counterbalance it by really and truly loving those around her/him.

As good as the reasons for anger and hatred may be--as many injuries that we may have received and as many dissappointments as we've may experienced, I understand that anger is a pestilence and a blight on my being. I will not befriend anger nor will I become a hating creature.

Art, is here to stay. May you all enjoy a healthy and creative day.
Ashok Nayak
