yay for angry blogging

oh jeez
okay,
this is my opinion.
let me start off by saying,
people know how passionate i am towards music
and how i feel about acting
and just about all the arts
correction,
how i feel about all the arts
but a blind man can tell you that the arts are slowly dying
especially music, art, and dancing
(shat, is that all of them?)
so when anyone has that glimmer of hope in the arts
(especially music [endorsed by Jacob])
i am the first to do my best to help them embrace it
like my friend, who i will not say her name
shes a good friend of mine and a lyrical writer,
a little shy to open up to showing me, as i write too
but she also has a passion to dance, and paint
thats three things that make her happy in this damn depressing world.
and with the BS that her family is going through
that's what she wants to do
that's what cheers her up
but with her parents telling her things like
"math and language arts is all you need in life"
that's pretty depressing to hear.
and knowing that your life is going to be withered away to something like that
something that you hate with a passion
that's sad.
i personally find that beyond sad
sad that parents, who are suppose to support us in everything we do
excluding drugs
are so blind to their own daughters passion and gift
that they force something else upon them
its misery that they are forcing.
why repress something like that?
and totally don't get me wrong,
math and all that other stuff is important
but forcing that upon someone is damn near condemning them to a 9 to 5
some people are fine with that
but for dreamers
that's not what we want
for any parents that are reading this
please
for the sake of all things holy and unholy alike
embrace your childs passion
embrace what they want.
hell
embrace and hug your damn child!
tell them you love them
and make sure there isn't a moment that they don't know it
you may not see eye to eye with them
but you know
maybe you need to try and see things their way
and let them learn from there own mistakes
not yours.
for gods sake!
let them live life themselves
not you living through them
this is a public service announcement
much love,
Jacob
