the gift

ok i have eom, term paper and tdae left to do. =(
but i can't help but decide to post something.

writing is a form of release. it allows me to vent all my frustrations onto the unsuspecting audience, before i go mad with the pile of responsibilities and burdens i have to shoulder. so to the unfortunate souls who happen to view this blog, please accept my apology before reading.

now.

i've always admired the myriad of gifts and talents every distinct and individual possesses. but of all the flair and forte out there, the one i appreciate (and want xD) most is the ability to draw.

after all, an artist has the gift to present ideas in drawings, craft beauty from the unattractive, as well as communicate words into a medium that transcends the borders of age, identity and differences.

more enviably, he can weave the emotions, sew the thoughts and stitch the unspoken, all into an alluring embroidery that encapsulates everything, and yet speaks so much more. this goes beyond the world of the ordinary. it eclipses the common and stands out among the best of talents.

the gift to draw, of all talents, is the prima inter pares.
the first among equals.
