"Stranger to my own heart"
Well, I guess I have to say hi... even if sometimes I rather let the echoing chaos of my thirsty soul resonate to my own displeasure... for this first post, I would simply say "Hello, I'm Alex"... you may have seen me around throwing microphone stands through music club windows, might have heard me scream for social justice or read a few words of my "open letters" posted in my band's blog section "through the eyes of ruins"... strange to admit, but it felt like a life time since being somehow active in that some kind of public blabbing confusion of my own.. Passion for words never failed me; desires to communicate sometimes did... so let's see where it leads me... I might not find myself being quite an interesting persona, but I can be quite entertaining at times... lol...
To be quite honest, I don't know if it's based out of desperation or if it's out of a true desire to give a try to that therapeutic and psychological trash theory regarding the spiritual liberation associated with sharing your soul to the universe that I'm getting back to blogging after such a long season of silence... since my dog Shadow died, I never really felt any particular emotions worth sharing... so writing words for the sake of writing words never been my style... I never believed in those theories of self-righteous-exposure and spiritual-public-masturbation... never been a fan of those spirit easing miracle peddlers standing at every misery street corner holding flyers with a total absence of empathy for the ones they’re seeing as lost, neither did I kneel before any awarded holy hero selling redemption in cheap shinny chroming religious vending machines only open for Sundays' cash-in… but since I've always been an optimistic freak believing in the empowering liberation of words... I’ll give it a try...
Alright, long story short... even if a long story short always tends to get way much longer with me anyway... I don't have any idea or any plan whatsoever regarding that new blabbing journal of mine... I might share about creation, music, lyrics, dogs, human rights, love and hate, studio, personal illusions, the upcoming album... I don't know... I guess it will simply be filled with moments, for what I consider a moment should be about... might be a few lines everyday... might be some never ending drama... I don't know... and that's the beauty of it... feeling somehow a little likes a stranger to my own heart, but as Shakespeare wrote, "the whole world's a stage"... so hey, let's start with "Hello, I'm Alex"...
Ps: stay tuned, major announcement coming up…
congratulations with your new blog. Good luck :D
ReplyDeletehi dear Alex!!!
ReplyDeleteI think this may be an oddly perfect way to get to know your own heart better and I assure you that you will find it MUCH more beautiful than you thought (and how can I know that??? call it "mom" intuition or whatever you like, but believe it..lol) thank you for bravely opening this new window into your soul - baring even more of what is "you" and the journey you have walked and are walking - as a living sacrifice to the lives of those who will be changed and transformed in some way, simply by connecting with your heart in this way..miracls abound..always..and remember, you are NEVER alone..
love ALWAYS!!! mom
