If you’ve been here long, you might have noticed my art experiments for my blog. First, I created shirts that show off some of that ol’ woobie attitude . That woobie pillow at the top part of this post is my latest attempt at artistry. The heart symbols, of course, reflect the light and dark side of Woobie, and my blog.

I am a lover of symbols, and I have always wanted to express my views on the L word using symbols, analogies and descriptive phrases. This is because I have doubts if anyone can really describe this feeling in one statement. In fact, the meaning is so relative to the person feeling it that one can go from “love rocks” to “love sucks” in a short time, depending of course on how it manifested itself to the person.

To some, love isn’t love if it is not reciprocated. Like, what’s the point of loving if you aren’t loved back? To others, unconditional love is the norm. Yes, there are people who care without asking for anything in return. What’s the point? It makes them feel good. It makes them feel that they are satisfying a need in themselves to continuously provide affection, regardless of consequences.

The love that I talk about and describe in my talent-challenged art projects such as the pillow in this post is the kind that isn’t all comfort and bliss, it’s the love that hurts a bit when rubbed the wrong way, or when the longing gets too much. It’s the quirky type of love that makes me want to fan the flames, knowing full well that if I let it soar too high, it will burn me.

(For more professional looking logo, though, I’d probably ask my advertiser, FrontierLabel.com to create my publicity labels for me, ’cause the one I created using MS Paint really sucks… again. )

:heh:
