“There Was a Sun Once” or “Quetzalcoatl and Cringer Was My Genesis”

I can honestly say that I do not know the meaning of the word “boredom”. I do not really know what it means to be bored or how anyone can possibly be content with being so. While I am honest enough to admit that there have been times in my life when I may have felt bored, those times are so far gone that I can barely remember them. Being bored, today, for me, would be the Haley’s comet of Facebook status updates.

There is something about my cerebral existence that, somehow, finds it hard to be bored at any one point in time. I have spent, however, a considerable amount of my time on this planet in less cerebral pursuits. Well, maybe it is that I was as cerebral but I just used the artistic side of my brain significantly more. Writing songs, composing songs and admiring and contemplating song lyrics can be as exhausting as sitting at a desk crunching numbers 24/7. (I am finding the evolution of the word “cerebral” fairly interesting right now—it seems that the use of certain words in the English language have yet to catch up with science.)

I feel I have experienced both sides of the spectrum and I truly believe that being an artist—of any type—requires that one walk the line between boredom and industriousness. I mean, there are certain concepts that cannot be articulated when the brain is moving a million miles an hour. On the flipside, there are just as many concepts that may never be conceived by minds that have only two speeds: slow and slower. Minds that rarely (or never) bring themselves to appreciate different shades of green definitely miss out on some things of the greatest things in life.
