Critical Analysis

Funny how this subject in school, the one I had the most difficulty with, is the thing I spend most of my time doing nowadays. The essence of most things is in the details, and often not the "fine" details, but the rough ones. Like the off-stroke of a paintbrush that grazed slightly outside the lines that let you know something about the painter itself rather than just the painting or the painted. It's the details that blur the lines between subject and object that remind us of the ultimate unity of all things and the absolute omni-purpose that they carry. Was the woman beautiful because she wanted to be beautiful or beautiful because she wanted you to remark on her beauty?
Simply the things that simultaneously keep me up at night and finally allow me to sleep without a care in the world.
