Blogs are fun.
No face to face contact.
Not that with me, face to face makes much difference; I am an accomplished actor.
The locals know this, they see me face to face.
The confusion is there , but long past being of much relevance.
It is just him.
But then I switch.
Well it was him.
My wife enjoys the games , mostly.
I enjoy her games too.
We are face to face, intimate.
So, who do you know?

ffs Buhi.
Every human I know has more faces than Big Ben.
Life is one big role play, you should know that.
The whole world is an actor.

The Yorkshireman, or is it Lancastrians? are famous for telling you how it is.
Straight talkers, they are. They take pride in their ignorance.
Well, to be fair, they don't realize that they are ignorant.
Anybody that thinks they are not "multi faced," is deluded.
You have to be to survive human interaction, to survive human life.
The way you present(ed) yourself to your Mother was different than the way you presented(ed) yourself to your Father.
The way you present(ed) yourself to your sisters was different to how your presented yourself to your high school friends.
etc etc
We all fit into roles in our relationships, and friendships.
One good way to lose a "friend," is to step out of the role that they had allocated you.
Maybe they had presented themselves as the urbane, wise and upwards moving - then suddenly you get the promotion, the job of your dreams etc and "overtake, them.
A true friend is delighted, a faux friend seethes with jealousy.
You had "no right," to step out f your role.

Strangely Bleth, you reinforced my point.
We are what we are.
I can act, transform, wear different clothes, wear make up, even dress as a woman, BUT, I am still in essence self.
Discuss all you like on a blog, write novels, poems, make films, whatever, and it is back to self.Nothing will change that.
If you are a no good son of a bitch, that is what you are.
Thankfully I am not, neither are you and that is not flattery.

So there it is, self.
To some extent you must conform.
Your own conformity might well be obnoxious to others.
Then the boundaries.
Those are the boundaries that cement society, the necessary boundaries.
Art lets us explore outside those wholly justified boundaries.
Art is the release.
But to put in to practice the taboo, is not art, it is dellusion.
I think the essence of a very long day's discourse.

You know that.  |

I hope I made a very serious point.In art you can do anything, a total freedom of the imagination.It has always been so. As a teacher you let children explore their imagination, read fantastic stories to them. As have all generations.
We also learn to suspend disbelief.
That is very important ;to seperate fantasy from "reality". True they can merge, that is great art, where the fantastic relates to real experience. Looking at Titian is a real experience, but a fantasy As it is for literature and so on. Even a simple live performance, a fantasy. But when the boundary is crossed and you desire the fantasy and try to make it real, there lies a problem.
Some, maybe many, try to enact their fantasies in real time. Very dangerous. Drugs can enhance the experience, even more dangerous.But to experience the sensation of the fantastic is not dangerous.
A certain poster crossed that boundary without knowing it. I cross that boundary, but know it.
There lies the difference.
