I find myself full of platitudes and sayings. My response at the moment are the truisms of my life. I'll share them with you but ..and I won't say, at the end of the day...in the end, I think the artists are going to have to explain and interpret this current time on planet earth. Their art will be all revealing. All I can say is ...you can't always get what you want. Life wasn't meant to be easy. You win some, you lose some. Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves. Appearances are deceiving. He who has the information has the power. May God have mercy on your little cotton socks. I am full of all these sayings. This is what is coming out of me today. Unbelievable. Mothering myself. If you can't beat them , join them. My automatic response to that is ...no way. But the saying which sticks is a Victorian one...it's not the knock at the door you need to worry about, it's the serpent which slithers under it. Nearly half of Australia didn't vote for Howard. Nearly half of America is not voting for Bush. For either of them to claim victory seems really odd to me. Mind you, I was never any good with maths. But I think the artists will understand it all and interpret it for me. I just don't get it. I keep hearing America is the most powerful nation in the world. What does that mean? A thousand million Chinese can't be wrong and a thousand million Indians have a point of view and collective voice. And then another saying comes to mind...there's safety in numbers. No man is an island. We are all one. See, they just keep coming!! So I'll ask a question. If size doesn't matter, what does?
