Net Neutrality STILL matters2me!

To the FCC:http://act.credoaction.com/campaign/fccnn_comments/?r=5157&id=7291-135849-p_n2CmxThe internet has offered creative artists around the world a platform to share new work and ideas with other like-minded individuals. Artists are typically loners with few examples of community. The internet has changed that for me and many other artists. The internet offers community, collaboration and education for people who may not feel comfortable in a group setting. I have learned and shared a lot of good work in the last five years, this would not have happened if the internet was limited to large companies serving their own agenda.I have been blessed to show my work in places that may not have found small-town me if not for a free and open internet. Here's the giant beach... I'm the grain of sand they found. I have found many gifted visuals from around the world with a laptop and a connection. This gave a shy artist from a small town - Community, that would be unable to contain the many creatives who populate my favorite works. To say the internet has changed my life as a creative would be an understatement.http://www.flickr.com/photos/bijoubaby/https://www.youtube.com/bijoubabybabyfavoritesNet Neutrality celebrates the creative potential of the independent individual... nothing more "American" than that.

Gratis

Today and everyday I am grateful for good health, family, friends, home, a beautiful day, vision to see it and creativity to interpret what is fleeting for us all. I choose to remember the sound of love and peace that measures the weight of all beings on the silence of the ether. Love deserves a name... today I will call it the sound a tree makes when a knot hole reminder is collected from the pause of a forest trail path and placed in a hiker's pocket. Before the journey continues on, after the evening light curves round the shadowed footprints.
