LIFE III & Tidbits

Journal Entry: Tue Nov 3, 2009, 2:48 PM
  • Mood: Lonely
  • Listening to: God Module
  • Reading: This page.
  • Watching: The fluoresent lights.
  • Drinking: Coffee
I thought I'd found a reason to live
Just like before when I was a child
Only to find that dreams made of sand
Would just fall apart and slip through my hands
But the spirit of life keeps us strong
And the spirit of life is the will to carry on
Adversity what have I done to you
To cause this reclusive silence
That has come between me and you
And the spirit of life oh-ho remains in light
And the spirit of life oh-ho remains inside
I never thought it would be quite like this
Living outside of mutual bliss
But as long as the veins in our arms still stand up
The spirit of life will keep living on

Spirit (Lyrics) by Dead Can Dance

As you know I have been posting a fair bit of work, I have almost 30 pages of favorites to thank people for, and tons of comments to respond to. I will tackle them, just please be patient with me. Thank you ALL So Very Much for your unbelievable support!

My sky calendar is now available for sale, and much to my elation I sold one already!! I am debating about making one of my paintings, thoughts and comments would be greatly appreciated. I though about doing a poll, but I would rather actually hear them.

My gallery has also gotten too cluttered and out of control, so I will be removing works that either aren't very popular or that I really don't want. Just want to let all of you know in advance so you don't wonder if some of them disappear.

I have been getting questions about why I have started putting lyrics with my work. 99% of my titles are songs that have some personal meaning to me, I just thought I might actually include the lyrics in case someone is interested.

The pages can be seen at: [link]

HERE IS THE LINK TO PURCHASE IT: [link]

Let us think the unthinkable, let us do the undoable. Let us prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all.
