Brenden,

This text of yours led me to think about my daily life in which I live and create art for myself and for those who live it with me.

"Maybe a method of subverting this commodification is putting a new focus on the idea that life is art. When you do life, you do art; when you pursue the act of creation, you do art; when you do life, you're creating".

"And in all of that, you're creating your own art of life by taking part in the art of others".

And how wonderful that others have created arts that touch us and we take part in them!

"Life is our canvas, and every moment is a brushstroke".

Marvellous!

"And then maybe your way of doing life can become an act of rebellion. Stay curious!"

I'm very curious, and I think I'm a rebel in this sense; I use Mark Twain's advice: “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”

Congratulations, and thank you for publishing this text.
