GOD said "for you and for you alone, I have made this place, a kaleidoscope of wonder, to keep your eye upon as I turn, turn the world".

Feels like a sad day, so why not be sad? Here is a song to get ya going..its Ziggy Marley's - Drive. Actually a friend of mine said it made her feel happy-sad..so true.

Took the boat out, YAY! alone, open water before me, and rain against my face, it was truly heaven on earth.

Feels like the walls of past wrongs are closing in on me. the need to rectified them is required before trudging into the future with a clean conscience. Dammit why did i ever grow a conscience? lol..jk.

I read this over the weekend. I thought it was very reflective and needed to be passed on. Enjoy.

The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven by Sherman Alexie
--------
The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven, Victor, the narrator, speaks about what he calls the skeletons of the past and the future:

"There are things you should learn. Your past is a skeleton walking onestep behind you, and your future is a skeleton walking one step in front of you . . . Now, these skeletons are made of memories, dreams, and voices. And they can trap you in the in-between, between touching and becoming. But they're not necessarily evil, unless you let them be. What you have to do is keep moving, keep walking, in step with your skeletons . . . no matter what they do, keep walking, keep moving . . ."
--------

As far as I know, Heaven and Hell only exist on earth.

"Religion is sitting in a church thinking about fishing.  Spirituality is fishing and thinking about God."

Awhile back I was asked "why is your website is so plain, aren't you a graphic designer" lol. I get around to it...its on my "to do list". I came to do a quick update. I also added a new tracklist. Come and get your love - Redbone is the original song..it rocks!!

I also wanted to say that "the only sane way to live in this insane world is to be insane"  haha.

When it comes to being an artist there are some rules. These are a just a few things I have come to realize:

1. you can't live on past accomplishments for too long
2. you need to know the rules to break them. 
3. being an artist is about putting on a show
4. after awhile you'll start believing your own bullshit.
5. you have to get used to being alone most of the time
6. get used to rejection and "constructive criticism"
7. find inspiration anywhere you can.

A few days ago I wrote about paying attention to your first conscience thoughts after you get up in the morning. This morning my first thought was "ah no thank you, I had a cheeseburger for lunch, thank you" LOL. naturally my next thought was "where did that come from?!?!"

Sunday's warm breeze in the shade.

ahhh yeah...this is what Sundays are for.
"Accept your anger because you know, you understand, that you can take care of it; you can transform it into positive energy."
-------------------

I sitting here alone, sipping my coffee, listening to music, and focusing my thoughts in a creative direction. Have you ever payed attention to your conscience thoughts the very first minute you wake up? Next time try and note those thoughts. I think those first few thoughts are a perfect indication of where you are emotionally, mentally, spiritually and physically.

"race and embrace me in a sea of sin,
break and forsake your vows of virtue,
twice and entice each other in pleasure"
(the start of my new poem)

How does one learn to let go of fear? The thing I read about fear is that it doesn't exist. It only exists in our minds, hence its not real. For me I use fear as a shield to protect myself from harm. Yet the truth of it is that fear is only holding me back.  Fear keeps all the greatest things in life out.  - You can quote me on that :-P

Photo Caption: I like this photo bc it reflects life in general.

Mark Twain quotes:

"The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page."

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one corner of the earth all one's lifetime"

I have recently developed a liking for typograph, its truly an unique method of design. I have only started to scratch the surface but  its been very enjoyable. I included a poem that I wrote called "foolish dreamer"
