It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me.

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

Who am I?

Journal Entry: Sun Oct 14, 2012, 4:25 AM

Mood: Artistic

I didn't realize that it had been nearly two months since i last updated my journal... i intended to do weekly updates all along... haha.
And yes, i have my creative energy back

partly due to the fact that i have had the laptop to myself and haven't had to share in a while, so i got more time.
I don't really have a whole lot to say... but there is something on my mind, and heart...

I recently met someone who has clarified something for me. There is a part of me, a BIG part of me, that doesn't belong to the human race (seriously). My closest connections have been with those on the spirit plane (you don't have to believe it, i'm just saying what i personally have experienced). The connection with wolves, and ravens too, is more powerful than i imagined. And when i meet someone with whom i feel a close bond, it awakens dormant feelings within me.

I don't know what I am doing here, on this planet. I don't know what i came here for, but i am trying to remember myself, my true nature, and the ancient ones.

that's all.

~IndigoTribesMan Nov 21, 2012

I am finally back on devinatart. I consider you to be my friend and I wanted to weigh in even though it's been so long since you posted this. I have a Masters Degree in Comparative Religion and have tried all sorts of faiths and spiritual paths. What I have come to understand is that we are NOT of this world. Every one of us is a reflection of the divine. (Call it "God/ess" "The Ground of Being" "Universal Consciousness" what have you) All sentient beings (and who knows what is and isn't sentient? Are trees? Is the Earth? Are viruses?) share a communal existence outside this world of tangibility that I like to refer to as "The Mind/Body Complex". That Raven that calls to you in the evening's afterglow? She calls to you because she IS you. That special someone? You share a soul. We also share our deepest and truest nature with the drug lords and the corrupt politicians and the pedophiles, they are just allowing emotional pain and neurochemical imbalances to divert them from the true calling of this life: to relate to our fellow beings and try to spread kindness and hope. End rant. Fingers crossed that I don't get flamed to the Andromeda Galaxy for my comment.

*wyldraven Nov 21, 2012

hey, welcome back

much of what you said resonated with me... i have discovered many of these things too.
From what i understand, we connect more closely with some more than others because we come from soul groups. Though everyone is connected, there are those with whom we share a greater bond. I believe our souls were 'birthed' that way.
I am not sure if the Raven IS me or not. I personally think that animal guides are the same as spirit guides. ie: not us.

well, you don't have to worry about that... the Andromedans are great people!

~transangel Nov 13, 2012

Perhaps I am a tad late for this and an unknown, but in faith I am not too late to offer my own words:

I have found we are oft not here necessarily to find answers, but to live and breathe the questions as they happened. And, as we look back - be it this life or another - we find it was the questions that were, in fact answers.

It's not quite a cycle, but sometimes it may seems as such.

And greetings from a passing Trickster. :3

*wyldraven Nov 21, 2012

sometimes i honestly don't know. i get deeply frustrated at times... i've been in contact with beings who could have given me answers but never did.

but that probably ties in with what you said... we had to live and breathe the questions as they happened (and not force the answers too soon).

~transangel Nov 22, 2012

Besides, what good are answers if they do not give way to more questions, ultimately? Breathe, pause, and take the steps as they come.

Plus, what is the point of the human experience if linear time does not apply the majority of the time? We lose things otherwise, and we cannot always get those things back, whatever they may be.

~Rogue343 Oct 22, 2012 Student Traditional Artist

Those searching for the truth and enlightenment are far superiour to those who think they've found it.
Glad to know it's wolves and Ravens you are connected to.
Best animals (besides dragons) ever!

*wyldraven Oct 23, 2012

i'm not sure if anyone truly finds it... i think it's an eternal search and discovery. Part of the growth of the soul.
Wise, strong animals

I love them too.

*DragonDew Oct 17, 2012

Good for you...I wish you all the enlightenment you search for. I too am on this path. You should search 'are you starseed' on Youtube it's quite interesting!

*wyldraven Oct 17, 2012

thanks

i have looked before, but i need to do some more research on it.
you are a Starseed?
