The outer world stimulates us overwhelmingly. We find ways to become easily distracted. We focus on everything outside of our selves, but our selves. We seldom learn to care about our creative self or creative expression. We live in perplexed times.
People are impressionable.
Everybody wants to do and be like everybody else, have what everybody else has. We are easily influenced by all that we see around us. The fast, mad pace continues to escalate. Pretense and superficiality are high on the list. We learn to change our roles and masks as fast as the images change in our Society.
