GOMA Muppets


This afternoon Phoebe and I went to GOMA. The drawcard was "The Muppets".  The Muppets were created by a fellow called Jim Henson.  My first observation, well my second observation was the prominence of the name: "The Jim Henson Company".  

My first observation was depth of creativity. Although "The Muppets" was the draw card,  they hardly featured. I suspect partly because the Disney company bought the muppets concept and partly because there really is such a huge depth of creativity. 

The puppet approach began many years before the muppets.  Accompanying the normal stuff, they did a lot of commercials.   I was intrigued at puppets with cigarettes.

On the way out we saw this video "Im nobody"

I love the creativity and the business success.  It does reinforce my feelings about myself: " a life of mediocrity and under achievement".

Interestingly I don't feel sad. I feel amazed and inspired - positive.
