A way to happiness- -

[bill718]

Be it a sculptor in Vietnam, a poet in Brazil, a painter in Toronto, a singer in St. Petersburg, an actor in Kansas City or (in many cases) a chess player anywhere in the world, artists are happier and more detached from political bickering, financial market fortunes (or misfortunes) inclement weather, transportation disruptions and many other things that anger and depress the rest of us; this despite periods of financial need.

Maybe we all need a little more artistic creation in our life.

Happy Artists

New research shows that people in arts careers are happier, more resilient, and more well-adjusted than the average person.

Guns makes me happy. I create tiny round holes in pieces of paper at far distances.

I used to have many artistic hobbies, but they got SO goddamned expensive. So I gave them all up.

I have created innumerable beautiful things in my life. Paintings, sculpture, lots of furniture, houses, elaborate sand castles, pottery, baskets, mosaics etc. The act of creation followed by the act of getting paid for it is like nothing else.

occupied I believe the happiness comes from the creative process. If any compensation follows, then that is just icing on the cake.

I'll bet the do.
Make you feel powerful powerful and in control?
Up goes the testosterone levels?
Tough guy?

It doesn't take much to stimulate a small brain.

Rectal Bullwhip and Piss Christ come to mind under the term "art". I believe both of these pieces of homosexual filth were subsidized by American taxpayers.

Crucifix in a jar of urine ("art")

Bullwhip shoved up Richard Mapplethorpe's ass "art"

This brings happiness, scholars tell us.

Politics are inherent in virtually every discussion anywhere. It would not be so controversial, so damaging, so destructive if not for Democrat insanity, from pretending you can change sex, to badmouthing America constantly, to lying and claiming intellectual and moral superiority.

Hundreds of millions of dollars squandered
