Dismissing Childhood

Mon Nov 17, 2008, 4:36 AM
Here is a little something I decided to make for whoever’s interested in reading it.

I’ve recently recorded some of the episodes of the TV series called The Adventures of Pete and Pete, in my pc, a series that emphasizes the life of two brothers with the same name that even though they live in a surreal neighborhood, they always manage to share life’s ups and downs.
One of the episodes, which belongs to my favorites, called: Farewell, my little viking, reminded me of how it is when you walk between childhood and adulthood and I’ve also thought I share some of the stuff seen in the episode, because it’s about a moment in the life of younger pete when, for an unknown reason, Artie, The Strongest Man in The World, who’s also Pete’s best friend and his great childhood hero, has to go away and say goodbye to the kid. What really makes me think is that Artie alleges that, even though they’re both walking in separate ways, the feelings and adventures they lived together will never be forgotten, because artie will always live in pete’s heart.
I thought with myself: Growing up is like that as well, when we have to abandon childhood habits and become adults, which is, in fact a painful process. I can tell how sad it was to for me to have to abandon childhood’s dependences and customs, something that happens until present day, I had to join the adult world, to fit on it’s standards, I had to stop belonging to the crowd, someone who’s always expecting something from the world to become someone who does something for it. But, thank god, I never abandoned the feelings and adventures I lived with my childhood heroes. That’s when I realized I could learn something from this brilliant TV series.
All of these artworks I do nowadays today are marks of my childhood, marks that could only be dreamt and imagined before, but nowadays, with my need of becoming adult and producing something for the world, those dreams could become concrete and be registered in papers. I think that’s what makes us plainly humans and that’s where we can take the strength to keep going, the feelings, the happiness and sadness that we share with our childhood heroes, whom like a candy’s taste, are never forgotten.

Ok, I guess that's all for now
