Zen Pencils by Gavin Aung Than for May 12, 2014

There is that fine line between following your heart to fulfill your dreams…and diving into a psychotic delusion.

Yes and innovators swing back and forth across it like a pendulum.

How to be an idiot in one long lesson.

Charles Bukowski the greatest American poet of the 20th century.

This doesn’t exactly make me want to jump out an eight story window, but it’s a great quote.

Yoda was much more succinct: "Try not. Do or do not! There is no try.

A modern day Don Quixote. That’s.. not a good thing.

I’m all for going for what you want, just keep some link to reality, and be careful what you throw away.

This is the first I’ve seen that seems to have gone off-kilter.

“Game of Thrones Fan Loses Head Trying to Become Ned Stark.”…too soon?

One may not like the way it is drawn but the words mean much.To stand and become the “good against evil” can cost you.It can cost you everything including your life.Remember……there are “dragons” and they will burn our world if no one stands against them fearing the cost to themselves.

People like this actually exist. I’ve met a couple.I’m sorry, Veteran, but this one seems rather literal. People can’t just do their own thing, not in this day and age.

Good quote, not too sure about the illustrations. Maybe Beowulf would have been a better model.

This episode reads like trying to put a good spin on “the Fisher King”. That was a scary story to me.

Great symbology.

This one sure produced more action than the ones that I liked and so did everybody else. not enough to disagree with I guess.

I thought he’d end up at a cosplay event. Or go into costume design.

He did not “went all the way”. He should have made his own sword, made his own fur, made his own camping gears….
