There is a long way from the heights of Hollywood, to the true suffering of humans.

When you are an artist, you need something to fire your emotions and give you purpose. Truth, beauty and good are one, as Plato say.

So if you have a boring life, it is not easy to make deep and relevant art pieces.

The Danish writer Karen Blixen had this torturous experience in Africa, where she tried to build a farm. She fell in love with an elegant British aristocrat and even had the prince of Wales as a guest.

When she returned to Denmark, to live in her ancestral castle “Rungstedlund” she started writing stories.

She had an adventure to relay.

So that is, to my understanding the way to make art. You find something in your own life to express in a beautiful way. Your hopes, your realizations, your dreams.

The greatest danger, apart from having a life that needs inspiring, is if you fall for the political conmen.

John Lennon expressed some ideals, that he had no idea about the content about. That was what got him killed. Michael Jackson got into the higher hemisphere of politics, that finished him as well, he couldn’t handle it.

When you as an artist try to be political without the faintest idea about the theories of politics, you often end up being a target of some kind of enemies that you have no idea how to handle.

So beware of politics, you have to know what you are doing.

Yet, being an artist gives you a platform for Change. YOU can make a better world.

Inspire people to do good, share, be communal.

I truly believe, as Hillary Clinton, that a healthy society starts with a healthy family that lives in a healthy town that is in a healthy state.

Health being the sum of harmony and joy we share.

Sing to that, the unity of a country, and you will have done something beautiful.

The singers of yore knew these tunes, and they sang them with a lot of love.

G-d bless the will to do good with the voice you have.
