Peace*Now

Usually the peace protesters (aka Ladies in Black) go home at one after an hour of silent vigil, and the flag waving hawk leaves soon after. Every Friday it's always the same. But today an old guy with a beard and a bicycle who would normally look like a homeless person and maybe he is, has stayed and stayed and stayed on the same corner as the flag waver, with his "Honk for peace" sign, playing his boom box with Lynard Skynard or some such nonsense but seemingly taunting the flag waver to go home. They're both out there still like two people in a staring contest each refusing to back down

I make my way into the bank and I come out and see a white feather on the sidewalk. I pick it up and walk across the street. The flag waver says hello and I reply politely then I hand the white feather to the peace guy and we share a knowing glance.

He's Going to Run

Barack Obama has made it official. According to his latest senatorial newsletter, he is forming a presidential exploratory committee. I can't wait to see what happens next. I've been getting Yahoo alerts everyday about him, and the buzz is so hot, I seriously doubt anyone has missed it. But I am very excited. I, for one, plan to to give him a chance and see what proposals he can come up with for the enormous challenges this country faces. But today, hope is alive and well.

Read it for yourself.

I am the One who is calm and content and I am the One who is vital and spontaneous.

I give you will-power and self-definition.

I want you to trust in your ability to make long-term, intimate connections.

You will remember when the icy waters of self-consciousness melt away and self-confidence blossoms.

Happy Birthday Guruji

I may go far, farther than the farthest star, but I will be Thine always! Devotees may come, devotees may go, but I will be Thine always.

I may bound over the billows of many lives, forlorn beneath the skies of loneliness, but I will be Thine always.

The world may leave Thee, while engrossed with Thy playthings, but I will be Thine always. Thou mayest take everything away that Thou gavest me, but I will be Thine always.

Death, disease, and trials may riddle and rend me, and yet, while the embers of memory shall flicker, look into my dying eyes and they will mutely say, "I will be Thine always."

My voice may become feeble, fail and forsake me, and yet, with the silent, bursting voice of my soul, I will whisper to Thee, "I am Thine always!"

Whispers from Eternity
by Paramhansa Yogananda

Can Anyone Say Girl Power?

Happy Birthday Sir George

Happy Birthday Sir George Martin and thank you for your magnanimous contributions to my life and the world through music.

The Tiger Within

The Tiger Within by Jim Warren

A self-taught painter, Jim Warren defies artistic category. A Los Angeles newspaper described him as "somewhere between Dali and Rockwell." And though Jim's style is hard to pin down , his flair for the unique - yes, even the unusual - never detracts from the impact, spirit, and emotion that he packs into every piece. Jim's artistic career hit the fast track when he won first place at the prestigious Westwood Art Show in 1975. He subsequently took additional awards, and then in 1980 blasted into art's highest circles by winning the Grammy Award for the Best Album (cover) for his work on Bob Seger's mega-hit Against The Wind. Today Jim is considered one of the best cover artists in the country, and his work has graced hundreds of book covers, album covers, and movie posters. Several years ago Jim committed his talents to promoting environmental themes and issues. One recent image of Jim's - Earth, Love It or Lose It, is a nationwide smash itself. Other environmental works typify his theme of harmony and coexistence between man and nature. "Each person sees something different in my paintings that relates specifically to them. That, to me, is what art is all about."

Writers Note: I really felt an affinity for this painting when I found it on a greeting card many years ago. I saved it because I never found a use for the card's message. Now that I have begun doing SoulCollaging I have found the perfect use for it. This painting really speaks to my inner self.
