I Would Say Try To Tell Stories

We Live In A Time Where There's An Alienation Factor. There's A Certain Disconnection. We Don't Have Any Real Sense Of Community Anymore.

In My Own Life, I Think Legends Of Supernatural, Mythic Things Are Really Just A Manifestation Of The Collective Unconscious. So I Don't Really Get Freaked Out. I Mean Certainly, You Read About Things People Did To Each Other In The Pursuit Of Some Mystical Or Occult Goal, And It's Horrifying. But That's Just Human Nature.

A Lot Of Times, The Choice Of The Right Song Will Save A Scene. Or There Will Be A Scene That's A Little Flat And You Put In The Right Song And Somehow It Just Comes Alive.

I Definitely See The Good In People. Certainly In My Own Life I Strive To Be Somebody Who Is Functional And Well Adjusted And Can Face Conflict In A Non-emotional And Non-destructive Way, And Those Are The People I Try To Surround Myself With In My Life. But As Characters, They Bore Me.

And As I Stumbled Onto Eastern Philosophy And Buddhism, It Was The First Time I Had Ever Read Any Sort Of Philosophy That Really Made A Tremendous Amount Of Sense. What I Liked That Was Missing From My Experience Of Christianity Growing Up Was A Sort Of Acceptance, A Sort Of Being Ok With Being Imperfect And Not Focusing On The Sin.
