A Personal Manifesto

I am alive.  I am everything and nothing.  I am greater, I am less, I am human.

I believe in opulence.  I believe in the shimmer of a piece of silk in the wind.  I believe in the beauty of the human form, the wonder of a straight line, the perfection of a sphere.

I believe in equality- that everything can be beautiful if used correctly, that everyone can think of beautiful things and live in a way that displays knowledge and taste.  I believe in correct grammar, in the wonder of a well-taken photograph, in the innocence in a child's eyes and in the pain in his mother's.

I believe in the written word, for it is  water to the thirsty mind.

I believe in fashion, for it is the attempt to achieve perfection in the human form.

I believe in art, for it is the truest expression of thought.

I believe in music, for it is the truest expression of emotion.

I believe in theatre, film, and dance, for they are the culmination of the arts.

I believe in architecture and design, for they allow us to see what the world could become.

But above all, I believe in creativity, for it is proof of the eternal.

So, do you believe?
