"Kindness in words creates confidence.
Kindness in thinking creates profundity.
Kindness in giving creates love."

~Lao-Tse

"...it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

I dunnae what I'm doing today. I may go up teh mountain and take pics, I may go to teh Warhol exhibit and ogle at pics.

I am turning over a new ..leaf..no matter wot I do. I am thoroughly going to enact and live the two quotes I have posted above. I'm going to tape up my fists every morning and take on each day with zeal, compassion and def-ninja tactics. I shall defy gravity and despair. I don't divide darkness from art..yin from yang..I shall understand those drives and their gears. I shall know when to shift.

I want to celebrate my pieces. I want to further my inner mosaic. I want to repeatedly earn my super 'S'.

I want to take people's voices as their gospel, and offer to help them alter those fibers when they ask.. no matter how they ask.. with their words or eyes or refrains. I shall understand when they're not asking. I shall know when a refrain is my turn to speak or ask, glance, glare or blink.

Music is my surf board and my shield.

I shall try to love with the boundless energy and ceaseless sight. Actual love demands champions, those who get up when they cannot.

It is not a odd day for resolutions for me. Something regal has possessed me.

I shall be not still.

That is so awesome and so dang true!
Wow you just always blow me away Epie! xoxoxoxox

ty Suz

Your welcome, but truly, WOW, the 2 quotes are great, but what you wrote is even more amazing and as usual has touched me to the core, I read it to your other fan and he was standing there w/his mouth open and said "and why doesn't she write a book for people?".
Oh and we may never have met face to face, hope that changes some day, but we both want to know we love your pieces and how u open your soul and touch people w/your words.
xoxoxoxox

LOL.... Bono called Johnny Cash a friend, Johnny called him a fan...You and fan 2, are friends, pls.

This piece is kind of my new years resolutions..as Im kind of counting the year as starting now...instead of anything traditional..ha go figure.

I wouldn't know how to write a book for mass consumption, with a bent for issuing instruction..I just write out my internal twists and turns, and chuck em out there to the wind. I'm glad that peeps get stuff from it though.As an artist that always feels good.

I was a little afraid that this piece may have sounded a little too ascetic. But I don't like to alter what comes out, it kind of demands to be left be..

It's a happier piece than it sounds,lol. As usual.

Tell him ty for me, pls?

I was thinking about this at the store tonight,..I think I help peeps more when talking to them, some anyways...

Also..I was just amazed that art and music does immediately what psychology tries to..because music gets into your own space, enlivens you and replaces what seems to be missing... everyones tragedy, is what seems to be the missing part.

Art lets us know that that part is accessible thru vision...

retrives the divine.
