Dear everyone, the following post(s) is basically my beliefs, advice, and just lessons I have learned from my life, and continue to do so, it contains stories, even musical lyrics, I would really like you all to read this when you have a chance.
~Give Me Peace~
----Part I----
----Part I----
Let me introduce myself, i'm Barry, and i am an aspiring artist, im deaf (what?) I tend to make alot of deaf jokes. So far in my 15 years of living in this round marble we call "earth," I have learned alot of lessons. Here is what I have learned.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I believe that god put us on earth for a reason, he put a baker in to bake the bread, he put a musician in to entertain the soul with music, he put me here to do art and to speak my message, its a simple message, its nothing overlly done, but its hard to accomplish.
You see, when I was young, I was pushed, my only freedom was my art, ever since I was young, I was known for my art, nothing else, just my art, as I grew, I have gotten better, and guess what? I'm STILL known for my artwork. It's not bad, but its not great. The reason is, people dont listen to me, sadly, they think my life revolves around artwork. My real passion is peace. When I grow older, I want to join the peace core.
There are two Barry Lee's, here they are...
Barry Lee The Artist Barry Lee the artist is crazy, often loud, pushes the envelope, uncensored, but caring.
Barry Lee The Person Barry Lee the person is a peaceful, thoughtful, and caring. Always gives advice.
((Barry Lee the Person is writing this just FYI))
Few people know who Barry Lee the person is, you are one of them. I want to leave this world knowing I have changed at least three lives, if not more. That's my mission, and I will reach it.
I believe that life isn't perfect, so you might as well deal with it. I see people wine all the time "Why can't I get this?" "Why Can't I Get That?!", people dont realise that first of all, its not about you have, and second of all, life can't always bring you what you want, which is unfortunate but its true, if we got everything we wanted we wouldn't be happy, we would be miserable, the reason being is because of the fact that you got EVERYTHING you wanted, you can't get anything else, and you don't look forward to things as much. Life is a rollercoaster, your gonna go up, and down, and have a few death defying loops aswell, but theres always gonna be something better out there for you. Seriously, there will be, it may take awhile, but when you least expect it, life will surprise you.
People have to remember that you have to be happy for what you have, its not all about how much money you have, or how good you look (sadly, in this world, we get caught up with image and money), its about being yourself, no one, no thing can change that about you, being yourself is what makes you special, unique, if we all had the same personalities, we would be miserable. Our society today is about money and beauty, they say that beauty buys you everything, its not true (look at Miss Piggy), usually the beautiful people have more problems than us (*cough* *cough* Britney Spears *cough* *cough* Paris Hilton *cough* *cough* Donald Trump) (hopefully he doesnt sue me now), compared to them, we are normal.
Also, speaking of normal, that word is way way to overrated, no one is normal, everyone is different, thats what I love about this world.
My other problem is love. It's hard to find somebody to love, and somebody to trust aswell. If your single, don't feel down at all, your not the only one, even though you might feel that you are, I have had never had a girlfriend, and I was down about it, but I realise now that the single life is awesome, where you mingle with a bunch of girls (or guys) without getting in trouble with your own spouse! I liked a girl when I was in the 7th grade, I kept liking her, then I asked, she said "no," but I kept asking, I soon realized that when she said no, she had meant no ((haha)) but now we are really really good friends. Friends are more better than boyfriends and girlfriends, take this clip from the Office, this is exactly what I mean. ((I love that clip))
Racism is another thing that really ticks me off, people get really nasty with eachother for what race they are, when they don't realize that they are people like you and me. I know it sounds cheesy, but its the truth, we all need to treat each other the same, no matter what color, we are all human, how would you like if someone called you a racist slur? How would you feel? Just ask yourself or ask someone else if they make a rude comment about the different race of the individual.
There's another thing that bothers me, violence, its not the answer, people think violence helps, but it doesn't, it gives a bad name, and it makes more people erupt in violence aswell, if you want to solve a resolution with somebody, just talk to them one on one, tell your true feelings, its way more easier than having to go to jail or getting your lip busted open.
Well, there's part I, part two will be up a little later (sometime next week maybe?) The next part will have different life stories, and just more things I have learned so far. Feel free to post your comments, and if you are having any personal troubles, you can always talk to me in a PM, or on AIM. My screen name is BarryLeeSaid, so drop by and say hello.
Until next time, have a wonderful day,
Peace,
Barry S. Lee
P.S. Please try to take this advice to heart, it might help you.
