???
Within the past year or so I have created about 40 paintings. I never really think about the effect that these paintings will have on someone; I just paint. But I think that maybe I should start thinking about how the things I do affect everyone else. Mill would say that as long as I am not harming anyone else, I am free to do whatever I want. But who's to say that something I do doesn't harm anyone else? Even if I don't think what I'm doing will hurt someone, it just might. Have you ever said something and then like a week later, someone came to you because what you said hurt them? And you had no idea. I believe that people are too lazy to think and I am most definitely one of those people.
