Good day to you all and blessings upon you my lovely brothers and sisters. Here are pictures of my art accompanied by quotes from others. As we are in my heart and mind all one, then I wont distract us today with any other names, as I dont know yours!

                        The present changes the past. Looking back you do not find what you left behind.

Do I contradict myself? Very well, then, I contradict myself; I am large -- I contain multitudes.

The snake which cannot cast its skin has to die. As well the minds which are prevented from changing their opinions; they cease to be mind.

Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't.

Those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.

I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.

Therefore, dear Sir, love your solitude and try to sing out with the pain it causes you. For those who are near you are far away... and this shows that the space around you is beginning to grow vast.... be happy about your growth, in which of course you can't take anyone with you, and be gentle with those who stay behind; be confident and calm in front of them and don't torment them with your doubts and don't frighten them with your faith or joy, which they wouldn't be able to comprehend. Seek out some simple and true feeling of what you have in common with them, which doesn't necessarily have to alter when you yourself change again and again; when you see them, love life in a form that is not your own and be indulgent toward those who are growing old, who are afraid of the aloneness that you trust.... and don't expect any understanding; but believe in a love that is being stored up for you like an inheritance, and have faith that in this love there is a strength and a blessing so large that you can travel as far as you wish without having to step outside it.

Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.

Destiny is not a matter of chance; it is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.

Why do you want to shut out of your life any uneasiness, any misery, any depression, since after all you don't know what work these conditions are doing inside you? Why do you want to persecute yourself with the question of where all this is coming from and where it is going? Since you know, after all, that you are in the midst of transitions and you wished for nothing so much as to change. If there is anything unhealthy in your reactions, just bear in mind that sickness is the means by which an organism frees itself from what is alien; so one must simply help it to be sick, to have its whole sickness and to break out with it, since that is the way it gets better.

There were people who went to sleep last night, 

poor and rich and white and black, 

but they will never wake again. 

And those dead folks would give anything at all 

for just five minutes of this weather 

or ten minutes of plowing. 

So you watch yourself about complaining. 

What you're supposed to do 

when you don't like a thing is change it. 

If you can't change it, 

change the way you think about it.

                      The beautiful journey of today can only begin when we learn to let go of yesterday.
                                                        Blessings love and peace upon you all
