art

I've written four posts now that I couldn't bring myself to publish. I felt three were too personal and one too boring.

I guess I wanted this blog to be interesting yet detached.

Now that I've said that, I am reminded about The Picture of Dorian Gray. In the prologue, Oscar Wilde wrote: "To reveal art and conceal the artist is art's aim." Of course, this is impossible, and the artist himself was a hypocrite, who showed too much of himself in his own writing. I didn't think much of the quote at first, but I guess you could say, I am an artist and this blog is art. By creating art, I have already poured too much of myself in it, hence our names, as an artist gives its A-R-T to create art. Therefore, I refuse to put too much more.
