My face....an amazing canvas that I enjoy transforming with colour. If only we all did it, what an interesting experience it would be. Why complain about how you look, when you can change it. I am an infinite wealth of possibilities of creativity, and my face is one amazing expression of it....
How about yours??????
"I stopped looking for the light. Decided to become it instead."
This quote really resonates with me. I take it as when you feel like there is no hope, you go out and make your own happiness. You take something and turn it into something great.
I guess I've learned either you can choose to let life get the best of you, or you can choose to keep trying and rise above it.
I choose to rise.

They say we're safer at home, but are we. What if this shelter in place means you're not stuck full time with your abuser? What happens if you depend on things like support groups to handle your recovery? What if you live alone. What if you live alone and you're sick. How bout depression? What if you have depression? What if all this isolation has caused you to develop depression.
We are humans and we need human contact to survive normally, if that's a such thing. When this is removed from long periods of time, what are the circumstances and why isn't anyone coming up with ways to effectively help folks cope with it. I don't mean simply prescribing medication which only numbs a person, not actually help a person. We will not be able to meditate our way out of this.

As the 19th century wore on, the gains of the French Revolution were wittled away by a conservative backlash & leisure-class women, confined to the domestic sphere, once again felt comfortable showing off in elaborate clothing. Menswear, however, intended to be seen in public in the full view of a still potentially rebellious working class, stayed humbly dark & plain.
One place a gentleman could safely display a little whimsy was on a waistcoat, safely hidden for the most part during the business day by his jacket, then revealed in the safe domestic sphere when he returned home. As previously, these waistcoats were often embroidered by his wife and her daughters, who had little else to do sitting at home waited on by servants all day.
As the Industrial Revolution wore on, these little self-expressions for men (& the cumbersome get-ups that increasingly swallowed ladies whole) were no longer the reserve of the leisure class either. Accessories were mass-produced & waistcoats were woven on machines for men who couldn't afford to support women doing nothing but sitting home & embroidering for them all day. Working-class men who adopted 'fancy' waistcoats, top hats, canes, & snuff boxes were known as 'gents' or 'swells'.
The waistcoat on the left was embroidered by a girl named Atkinson for her papa when she was 11 years old.
Another green day at work; I got the memo this time. Took this in the middle of the day; that is why I have that zombified look - like damn I have been hold up in this building for way to many hours staring at this computer monitor.

In the car this a.m., waiting for it to warm up and for me not to freeze. Burr... it is a balmy 12 degrees here this morning with a windchill of 2. Yikes.
I continued packing most of the day, stopped to do a St. Patrick's Day Photo Session, and then realized the cable modem had DIED!!! Did not get things fixed up until today. Sorry so late....
Hope ya'll had a great St. Patrick's Day.
Once I heard from my dad, I went into this empty office next to mine so I could have a bit of pity party for a moment. There were several times today that all I wanted to do was find a dark corner and just have a good cry.

Miller has been thinking a lot lately about his own masculinity and gender expression. He was nervous about posing for GQ Style, because he wasn't sure if he could fit the mold. But the experience turned out to be just what he wanted. "I was pleasantly surprised and overjoyed by how much room there was for my very strange and fluid expressions," he says. Miller publicly came out as queer in 2012, and today he tells me his gender identity is fluid. "I'm comfortable with all the pronouns," he says. "I let he/his/him ride, and that's fine.

I hate Monday mornings.
The weekend always goes by far too quickly and then I’m staring at another week of meetings, conference calls, number-crunching and all the other drudgery I have to go through just to make a buck. But this was worse than most Mondays.
Maybe it was because Friday, Saturday and Sunday saw the resumption of full workouts and training sessions -- after a week off from fighting off a cold and resting a sore back -- and all the muscles in my body were screaming at me. Maybe it was the more-than-usual morning grogginess – the after-effects of the bottle of wine I’d consumed last night, coupled with the last vestiges of the aforementioned cold. Maybe it was the fact that I only got five hours of sleep. Maybe it was all of these things. And to top it all off, I was just in a mood.
I really hate Monday mornings.

.....these are the makers of the after-world, the architects of heaven. The world is beautiful because they have lived; without them, labouring humanity would perish.
Cherish your visions; cherish your ideals; cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the lovliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow all delightful conditions, all heavenly environment; of these, if you but remain true to them, your world will at last be built. - James Allen
