Afterthought

Oh I would appreciate peoples opinions on my previous blog. Where do you think art comes from? What inspires it? And why do those who are saddest seem to be the most creative?

Also just a sort of afterthought that I forgot to mention.

I saw on a friends facebook status that a moment ago that they were in awe. I guessed rather presumptiously that maybe they'd been listening to some amazing music and this was why. I then started to think how I could never make music that would have people in awe, I started to do my boring guitar practice and just thought I could never create anything truly awesome, the step was so far. Then I remembered something Aaron said to me in an e-mail once. It was that all things good from G-d, so if we something good in a person that's G-d working through that person. The same awesome G-d that inspires mewithoutYou and As Cities Burn to do what they do can also work through me. Isn't that the answer? G-d inspires it, that's where true beautiful art comes from. And as I'm typing I'm realising all I said before was wrong and void. These people created something from their loss or sadness, not Aaron cause he shouldn't of been in that group, but the rest. It was a search. But G-d didn't call me to suffer, he called me to show others a better way, not an easy way but a way free of the ties of such things as depression. I have to walk in this way walk close to G-d and music that comes from that, that Love for G-d, the realisation of His love for me, that will be true art.
