May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you’re wonderful, and don’t forget to make some art – write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.

How I Understand the 2016 Presidential Debates By : Malcum Moonsun The voting populace is the world child trying to decide whether to sit beside mommy or daddy. We, the children, are choosing our teacher, and we have been given all the lessons and are now made to choose the path that leads to best growth. The father demands great strength. He speaks his mind to the most isolated and deeply superficial thought. Moral implications aside, the thoughts are deep ceded in our mammalian reptilian imaginative brains. In this instance spoken from the perspective of the white man towards women and people of color, it is ignominious to think colored women do not have those reciprocated thoughts about Caucasian men. To stand by his words, or to lay down the ego and apologize for how it was spoken are both paths that require tremendous emotional fortitude. He has used his words to inspire understanding, understanding which evades the proud elite who cower in fear of what may be found illuminating the dark recesses of human existence. The enemies in the silence are more fearsome than the words we dare not mutter. If you have ever spoken what you truly think and feel you know that path always leads to truth. The mother teaches us of our ability to change; her viewpoint on topics like gay marriage has swayed over the years. She presents us with the challenge of asking ourselves if we have never been swayed by others’ attitudes and persuasions through the course of experience. If one reads five books and maintains the same mindset afterwards, then someone is plainly stubborn. If your intuitions feel no guilt with a journal full of secrets then she is the best choice for you. The choice will shape our future world child, and requires discussion and deliberation. While speeches will be given on our television screens, we still have the power to think for ourselves and share our thoughts and feelings about the topics presented to us within our communities. Be that as it may, understand that advisors limit their power. The decision you are making is whether you want a trustworthy brute or a silver-tongued devil whispering into your ear.
