Into the rabbit hole

Just a quick note to say I won't be at the MBP awards tonight. Some of us across the Atlantic have jobs in the morning. When you work with film, one of the first things you learn is that the human mind is always searching for understanding, to put things in relation. You have to carefully fit the scenes together in an order so the audience can by themselves can see the big picture out of the little pieces. This formula leaves an ocean of possibilities and many directors are known to play with them, but there are certain rules you have to follow. If you do it in a creative way, the audience can find their own meaning in your art. One of my favorite books is Alice in Wonderland. One of everybody's favorite books is Alice in Wonderland. I don't remember when the thought first occurred to me, but when it did it was like a revelation. No one is really special. No one is unique. My thoughts are not original and feelings are one of the most universal things there is. I read a review once, about Alice in Wonderland. It said something like 'it's about a young girl's journey into womanhood' and I was like, 'shut up! That is not what it is about at all'. I guess what I liked about the book was that it didn't have a message, that it didn't try to be something it wasn't. To me, it was a wonderful blur of madness and sanity and the something in between. The place where things don't have to make sense to make sense. We don't appreciate that as much as we should because it's everywhere. But that book in particular makes me want to sit down and write and know that it doesn't have to make sense. And the popularity of this book makes me realize that I am not alone in this feeling. That what I think is unique, that I'm the only one to have this thought, is completely bullshit. But doesn't that mean that creativity is copying. How many love songs are written, has anything really changed. Couldn't we just take the first one and go with that. Because sometimes you find a person that is a little different. Who deserves that new love song. I'm not going to say that when the two right people come together something unique is created, or something along those lines, because I'm a cynic. I really believe what I've written so far. Love might be special, but it's not exactly rare. More people have love than diamonds for instance. It's possible the author of Alice in Wonderland had a very strong message. But in the way the book was put together, it chapters, did as I missed that. So I created my own opinion, and I grew on it. I found a little piece of me to add to the puzzle. I guess what I'm saying is, love might be unoriginal but when I find someone who seems a little out of the ordinary, I don't mind another love song.
