CONSUMED BY THE URGE TO PAINT AND WRITE By R.L.Huffstutter


CONTROLLING OBSESSIONS TO PAINT AND WRITE

By Robert L.Huffstutter


Obsession is a word that frequently conjurs up images of acts or activities that are abberant or weird, a behavior that's focused on the lusts of the flesh, a driving force of energy that is so intense it becomes addictive and frequently out of our cotrol. Is there an obsession control group one should join if there is a personal suscpicion that one is addicted to art and literature. You say you don't suffer such a problem; you deny that any sort of thing is possible. You might laugh and ask the question about what "they'll come up with next?"

I found your blog because you mentioned Moby-Dick, and I'm always looking for news related to the book for my site, powermobydick.com. Funny that your post today is about obsession, which is what the book is about! Anyway, enjoyed your photos and thought I'd leave a comment per your direction. Best wishes.

About Me

My photo
My dad's dad, my grandfather, was nine years old when President Lincoln died from an assassin's bullet. Most people think I am speaking of my GREAT GRANDFATHER. NO, I am referring to my dad's father, my paternal Grandfather, Robert Levi Huffstutter, born in 1856. What does this information have to do with my profile? It might help the reader understand that I have a sense of being much older than I am in that only one generation seperates me from President Lincoln. This causes me to respond differently to society and many current events. In many respects, this is to my benefit, in other respects it dates my mindset. Perhaps this is the reason I value the moral standards and idealogies of older Americans, the men who were the soldiers and sailors I saw when I was a small boy,the men and women who fought a war for freedom without any doubts posted by a media with a questionable lack of national unity and purpose.
