THESIS STATEMENT 4:
I'd like to talk about the three main aspects or influences of unbelief according to Rolheiser
Lack of contemplation causes us to be blind to our relationship with God. We have to be aware of the "other" - in this case, God.
The lesson in Jesus’ encounter with Zacchaeus is that God makes ways to meet us on our terms, of which the Sycamore tree is a crucial metaphor for correcting the fault in our contemplation.
Zaccheus' shortness is a metaphor for sinfulness - he lacks in perspective to be able to view things properly
The Sycamore Tree is God's Grace - It helped him to see Jesus literally
My personal Sycamore Tree is the meaningful interactions I have with people
My friends help me realize that you never have to go into things alone.
Through them I realize how significant relationships are

The musicians I meet in gigs and sometimes collaborate with really inspire me and enrich my artistry
My blockmates really prove to me how important a community that builds off from each other's talent is. Supporting each other really builds a sense of community.
THESIS STATEMENT 9
Narcissism
Everything emanates from "i"
Clamoring for excessive privacy - Being utterly closed off. Not ideal because interaction is important
Unable to act complete detached from any influence
In my experience as a musician, I look to others for inspiration. Meeting fellow musicians and having meaningful interaction drives my work. Collaborations in my first album showed me that.
Unable to love because he is too concerned with himself
My obsession with self-improvement
Pragmatism
Inability to "waste" time / focus on hyper-efficiency
When I was looking for an internship, I was so fixated on finding something 100% related to my course.
While I was doing freelance work, most of it had to do in the field of audio and not in the field of design.
I was bothered that I wasn't a "good" designer or someone worthwhile because I was hardly getting work for it
This frustrated me, but in the end, I learned much even if I wasn't really directly applying the stuff in my course.
I remember talking to people already working in the industry and saying that "What matters is that the client is happy. Find contentment in making others happy."
Unbridled Restlessness
Greedy for experience
FOMO - Not experiencing things means being left behind
We lack introspection
So far, I learned to slow down and be patient
Small steps are what matter, though sometimes I may move a step back towards things - As long as I learn from them. I am happy
Stop comparing - Music & Design
A blockmate of mine, whose work I really find to be good - messaged me when I presented my portfolio, saying that she really liked it and it really shows whats unique about me
Artistry = My standards for myself are high and I know it
Not living up to these standards tend to disappoint me
If I don't live up to my own standards, I feel bad about myself
