    FAVORITE ARTISTS
    I don’t have favorite artists. I prefer certain periods like anyone else, but pretty much love good craftsmanship in any of them. I have a very clear want of line, so I prefer ink, etching and mezzotints. I have generally purchased small sculpture when possible. If I could own and live with anything substantive it would be a Rothko, or one of Bruegel’s peasant celebrations. If I could collect anything it would be life size portraits of nobility over the centuries – it would be like living with them. The contemporary work I like most is either quite technical and illustrative or the monumental portraits and portrait sculpture. I dislike photorealism (projectors) and mass market abstract and mixed media (intensely). For my own, I have generally preferred many small pieces to large pieces so a home or office has variety rather than to invest in a single. I personally worked on nudes and prefer the human form, the human form as landscape, and landscape. If I worked today I would do ‘wall sculpture’ using large numbers of woven human forms. I have drawn out and planned to create monumental theatrical dioramas. In my next place I will use a large vertical monitor to just rotate through pieces randomly selected by software from the internet and rotating every minute or three.

    (Thinking)

    Do we operationally agree with ourselves? In other words, in that moment where you think you have found an idea, answer, decision, or plan, how does that differ from when you listen to and then you agree with someone else? I am not sure it does. I think those two sensation and operations are the same.

    THE FOUR AGREEMENTS IN PROPERTARIAN CONTEXT

    (stoicism for women)

    1. TRUTH

    Be impeccable with your word

    “Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use your power of your word in the direction of truth and love.” – Miguel Ruiz

    Our word means so much more than we realize. What we say and how our actions line up with what we say are equally important. If you say your going to do something follow through. You will feel better about yourself and have greater respect from others.

    As well, practice being an encouraging and uplifting presence. Speak with optimism and praise toward people and you will not only change their life but you will change your own.

    2. STOICISM

    Don’t take anything personally

    “Don’t take anything personally. Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering” ― Miguel Ruiz

    How often do you take other peoples’ comments and actions personally? It is easy to assume we have something to do with their motives, but let’s face it; we are all more focused on ourselves than other people.

    Part of living with greater peace and contentment is realizing that other our worried about themselves more than us. We can’t control other people, but we can control how we respond to them. Don’t create drama in your life by taking things personally. Sorry but just not that important, none of us are!

    3. DUE DILIGENCE (SKEPTICISM)

    Don’t make assumptions

    “Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.” – Miguel Ruiz

    The assumptions we have about other people and how they will react to us can truly hold us back.

    Maybe there is something you really want to do but are afraid to do it because you assume that other people would be disappointed in you?

    Or maybe you are unable to fully express yourself because you assume other people wouldn’t understand or would respond negatively.

    Let go of assumptions! The only way you can test an assumption is to do or say what you desire.

    4. DUTY

    Always do your best

    “Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.” ― Miguel Ruiz

    GENDER SPECIALIZATION IN ARGUMENT

    |FEMALE| Abrahamism > Marxism > Feminism > Postmodernism (undermining) using Pilpul and Critique (ridicule, shaming, gossiping, and rallying)

    -versus-

    |MALE| Law > Reason > Empiricism > Science (empowerment) using truth, contract.

    *All increases in opportunity lead to pursuit of genetic interests. In other words, the more agency we have in the world the more we pursue our interests. As such the industrial revolution in this era and the commercial revolution in the ancient world, made possible the female pursuit of decivilizational intuitions.*

    (diary) Some days I beat my head against a wall to pump out of few sentences. Some days the words just flow out of my fingers without an ounce of effort. And I have no idea which day will be which. Today is one of the good days thankfully.

    THE TEST OF GOOD WORKS
    People with good intentions are just as bad is people with evil intentions. if you aren’t doing good with your own hands, own time and own money in the direct assistance of known individuals then you’re not doing good at all.
