		<description>Love this post! 

I praise you for going to art school. I'm very irritated with the idea of educating for the purpose of furthering industrialization. The current public schooling systems around the world drain children's imaginations. I remember when I said I wanted to be an artist - I was told by several people to find a 'better job'...this was after they told me to do what I loved. I don't ever want a child to feel the way I felt after I was told that.  

"Walk in the city and pay attention only to what is behind you." I think I'll try that tomorrow!

Today, I let a few people skip me in line at the grocery store...they thought I was crazy. One of them asked me, "You aren't in a hurry to get anywhere?" and I simply said, "Nope, go ahead...".</description>
