I apologize for the cliched post title, but it’s quite literally the most accurate way to describe how I’m feeling right now. My judgement in recent past has been… clouded, to say the least, in many regards. My priorities were a little skewed, a little out of whack. I had a very enlightening conversation this evening with quite a few people and came to the conclusion that some things in my life that I thought I needed, that I thought were important to me, that I thought meant a lot to me were really just delusions from a past that has, well, passed.
I’ve decided to rededicate myself to learning, to seeing, and to doing. It’s like I was in a dream that I had no control over, but I’ve been jolted awake and God damn does it feel good. It’s a great relief just writing this, getting it all out. Why did it take so long for me to realize that I’m literally surrounded by truly great and wonderful people who want to be involved in my life and vice versa? I’ve been such an asshole for the past couple of months, but no longer. Naysayers be damned, Andrew is back.
“Haven’t felt the way, I feel today, in so long it’s hard for me to specify…”
So little to say and so much time… Here goes something….
My name is Andrew to everyone who knows me and nothing to the people who don’t. I rarely feel inclined to write about myself and this small text blurb is no exception. I’m a film maker, of sorts. A designer, of sorts. A musician, of sorts. A photographer, of sorts. An armada of etceteras march behind these four generals.
The point I’m trying to make is that I enjoy art in all of it’s forms, and try my best to creatively express myself in every medium I take a liking towards. As always, things like life get in the way of being a non-stop idea factory, but that life is something that I’m thoroughly enjoying at the moment.
It consists of my beautiful girlfriend who I am very much in love with, a job that pays me well to do work that I would otherwise be doing for free, and a family and friends that I wouldn’t trade the world for. It’s safe to assume that I’m walking on air/over water/atop mountain peaks (pick one… hell, pick all three).
