It was a combination of food, chachkas, art, dance, and music--thank G-d, it was a good time!
When we were going through the booths, I came across this one artist pictured here.
A little scary looking at first, but actually seemed nice enough and he stopped to speak with us.
I asked about his very cool jacket.
And he told me, how he had actually made it with all the artistic things on it, including spikes, skulls, medals, patches, and even a pair of teeth!
Then he took off his jacket and turned around to show me his vest.
On the back was this awesome fighting foe.
I said feigning surprise:
"Oh, and it says RESIST on top?"
He replies:
"Yeah, never miss an opportunity to share a message!"
I thought to myself this guy is pretty smart, especially as he started to explain not only his jacket, but the meanings behind some of his other artwork.
Creativity is a wonderful thing--especially when no one gets hurt :-)--and it immediately sparks interest and dialogue.
How'd you do that? What gave you that idea? How do you use it?
The boring becomes exciting when another soul expresses itself.
Yes, we're all the same, but also we're all different!
It's by "going there," you explore and learn new things. ;-)
