I respect your choice!!!

so far, while waiting to see if you would reply, I have a feeling this has to do with yoga man? which is a cartoon I saw years ago that burned itself into my eyes....

thank you and I will go read the comments so I can understand.

# HUGS!

>And don't buy the bullshit line of fear some try to sell you either, in order to make you feel small.  These humans, with money, are just humans, with money.  They're not big evil monsters out to bite your ass and rip your wallet off.  Most folks who could be out there flexing and being intimidating, are not.  It's usually someone who's convinced themselves they're small out there flexing and being a menace.  They always pick on what they perceive as, big.

These words are very true.

>People were forgetting how to be human.  Still are.

agree 1000%

>I'll continue to defend freedom of the arts and expression on this chain.  Anyone who knows me knows I've been doing that since the start.  Why?  Because it's worth it.

It IS!

this is as far as I got :D

Okay, this is why I never talk about politics on any blockchain. With Covid, people have gotten worse. The world has gotten worse...

when it hit a few years ago, I went for a walk in a local park. I fell. The park was packed with people of all ages. I looked up from the grassy ground and NO ONE was looking at me. Not one person. No one offered to help me up. No one asked if I was okay.

6 months before the shit hit the fan if I was asked if that could ever happen in my little town I would have said NO freaking way. I saw a side of humanity that was dead. When I tried to get people to see how fear made people lose their humanity, all they wanted to talk about was **masks**.

I do not know how many times I typed the words "It's not about the freaking masks" but to them, it was something to latch on to feel safe.

I learned a huge lesson that day. One I will never forget. but it made me also strengthen my promise to God not to become what I had witnessed.

and that is all I have to say about that....

I am just me. I am no one special. I treat everyone the same. If someone has a problem with me on Hive, and in the world, the world is big enough for all of us. 

I will never run and hide if attacked but I will also stand up for the people that can not. and have...

I follow my own path in this world. Every encounter is a lesson to be learned then I move on.

Please keep being you and doing your wonderful, multilayered art. You inspire people. You bring joy and smiles to many when it is needed most. You are not like me and can joke and laugh in comments on the fly. I think too literal to do that often. When I speak I have no hidden meaning. It is just how I am made.

We are all needed on this Earth to be ourselves. We all teach others when we interact. We are all different because one person can not know everything...but you can know someone that does know what you need to know if you just ask.

Good Night my friend. It is 5 am here, and I need some sleep.

Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. I know enough to know I do not need to know any more :D

and do not forget...when you least expect it, I am sure another artwork of yours will turn into a story someday. :D

Oh, and to anyone nosey enough to read this comment, @nonameslefttouse is the farthest from evil as you can find. He **is** Canadian and an artist who feels deeply like most creative people. Creativity gives us the power to tell tales and make stories in many forms of media.

How boring life would be without music, painting, books and so on...

Look to yourself first if you are so set on calling out evil.

Those in glass houses should never throw stones.

The End.
