Introducing i was put on this earth, DJ Python, aka Brian Piñeyro, shared the following statement:

to whom it may concern..

Person 1:

Does it really feel good to do hard work?. Sometimes I feel I much prefer doing nothing, doing nothing at all. But is being lazy ‘bad’? I think doing nothing is poetic. As they say ‘sleep cures sleepiness’

Person 2:

Well what does the hard work lead to? So much of the work people do…it just leads to creating useless things.To consume?…I think hard work can lead to making something beautiful, beautiful and perhaps ‘useless’ and I think that’s something worth dedicating yourself to.

Person: I agree to a certain extent, but do we still consume beauty? Or can it just affect us, expand our mind, reframe how we think?

Person 2: I guess that’s completely up to you.

Person: I wish we could all just lay around, do nothing, talk about ideas that lead to nothing, not bothered by conclusion, not driven by production.

Person 2: Isn’t that what we’re technically doing right now?

Person: I guess you’re right. I guess beauty comes even without hard-work.

Person 2: Yeah – I guess it can just come from within, when the environment is right, when it’s pure – whatever that means.

Person: I just want to be GOOD so badly.

Person 2: We’re all a little good, we’re all a little bad. No one is the best thing they’ve done, or the worst thing they’ve ever done. Everyone is really just OK.

Person 1: Hm, yes, I see. I’ve worked hard, I’ve worked hard to be OK. I can do nothing, yet I can still make beautiful things. It is worth it to strive for beauty.

Even though you’re OK, I think you are so beautiful.

Person 2: I think you’re ok too, and find you very beautiful.

Person 1: When I watched Jodie Foster act in the beginning of Silence of the Lambs, I cried. I cried because she was so good she was doing exactly what she loved. It’s true human artistic achievement.

Person 2: Yeah, and everyone recognized it – she got recognized for something worth recognizing, and she forever will be.

It’s the dead of winter, and I walked past a tree, with all its leaves intact. They were completely black and it was 25 degrees. I don’t know if that’s work, or resilience, but it’s natural effortless beauty. Maybe someone could find it ugly, since it’s not green anymore.

But to me, the tree is beautiful. I’ve walked past it everyday, but yesterday I recognized how beautiful it was
