Autobiographical notes

What I imeyuN
The whole world in general. Canvas, brushes and paint - in particular. And - I'm struggling these puny means trying to express all that I know about life, which I happened to occur.
Any funds worthless.
The Rope is just your body and string, which must pass.
Left and right - death.
Any funds is immense and invaluable, if the left and right die, and you are bound to limit the attention given him to carry your life from the shore and the shore
. What is a violinist, director, arhitektorN
. What is man, wandering on Strastnoy bulvaruN
. What I know about life voobscheN
. I know that in it the red color - red, salt - salty, light - light, warm and Sears, the moon - is growing and aging, and at dawn chirping sparrows drunk
.
I know that in life you want to live, and then have to die. What it is hunger and sex, flight and aggression. What it is love and is the detachment.
And there is a responsibility unanswered. With kindness and tenderness, pain and suffering - are different things, different qualities. Tender children and animals. Before suffering and tenderness have dorastat.
The strangest thing - in a world where no one has ever seen freedom and perfection, where the fall and disaster programmed as an incentive, there are such things - freedom, beauty. In the world of chance and error, there is the concept of perfection.
All of us - you, me, were meant to perfect, but "life pouvechila". Now - we have what we have, with this work and live. From what we have, but not so as we would like.
Add: and fortunately!
Otherwise - zachemN But otherwise - could not be born, not to draw their own dance, not dance your drawing.
In this "now" I have all the same, every second of the new, elusive whole world in general, myself, izrisovannogo being and an unknown but not an infinite number of more pristine clean sheet. Tabula rasa, as a field of possibilities, as a testing ground for the fate of options - in particular.
All of us - and captured members of, and you, a man who sees these pictures inside a sealed book of perception, Dancing over the abyss.
When you remember about this whole essence - of a busy life with a succession of troubles, victories and concerns becomes piercingly beautiful and priceless.
All.
From and to.
From coast to coast and.

Ivan Novozhenov.
