More about The Captions

Be Aware,

Learning is truly a great thing to do.

But if you make learning everything there is, it can become an impediment to your self-expression.

That is because learning is, at the end of the day, accepting the way someone else expresses themselves. You are walking down the path someone else has made. Driving on the road not built by you.

How long will you display the way others express themselves, yet claim you are doing well? Is that how you measure yourself, to be a copy of others? Is your reference point merely the masters you follow, the path you're on, or perhaps the reference point is you yourself?

Beware.

If you follow these paths, perhaps you may seek your own path, branch off in variations. Or perhaps you may attain mastery and be the student that surpasses the master.

What you'll find is a landscape of unknown. A path not lain before and a way unfounded.

In this, you'll become a pioneer that others may follow. A trailblazer creating promethean ideas in your wake. Your next steps becomes the path and you may double back as many times to reinforce it and convince others this way.

You then become, in a way, the Master you once looked up to. Rather, you become a master that other's follow.

Have you ever thought that the artist puts their real art into the captions? And that the paintings or images are just captions for their words? A symbolic logo to invoke a meaning contained deeper within the small lines of text next to said image?
