...Me doy cuenta que estoy muy emocionado, apenas puedo vaciar la mente. Creo que es la emoción que sólo un hombre libre puede sentir y que ha recobrado la esperanza, un hombre libre al principio de un largo viaje cuyo final es incierto...
I am not afraid of the darkness or the night. I'm afraid of the silence - where there is nothing to hide me from my own screaming thoughts...

Depiction: Fear
Fear Of is a portrait depicting the feeling of being afraid. If you want to conquer fear, don't sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.

I've walked these streets a thousand times
Your death will never set colder
Compromised a thousand times
To the will of a vicious mind
Scarecrow's hood has been upgraded to reddish brown, but more importantly... I finally found some Batman CMF's. Catman's cowl and belt go splendidly with the suit from the Ra's set, and I threw in the gas mask head for good measure.
Little Joey was a very keen wanderer in his first ten years with me. He liked to stay in the shadows, observing everything in sight. He was generally quiet and didn't meow that much unless he wanted to be in my room or let out from the outdoor catio in the backyard.
I had him wear a collar with a bell as he wasn't afraid of venturing into our neighbour's compound. The bell also warned the birds of his presence because he was adept at catching the random, unlucky sparrow.
Alas it was also Joey's freedom that got him into trouble. It was too expensive to entirely cat proof our compound and he often took advantage of how easy it was to roam the neighbourhood by merely jumping into our next door neighbor's property or to slip out into the street via the drain from our garage.
The end result was the same each time. A trip to the vet's office where he received antibiotic and painkiller injections. Little did I know that the non steroid anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) would eventually begin to destroy his kidneys.
Be the one who lights their own way..
Don't be afraid to be different. Don't be afraid to stand out.
When everyone else around you says that we have to "wait" for them to light us...
Be the one standing alone, lighting your own light!
Don't be afraid to be different.. Don't be afraid to stand out. Do not be afraid to do things on your own..
If you are going to do what everyone else is doing.. and wait around until you're "supposed to" do it.. You'll never get anything done. And you'll never be anything special.. because you'll blend in with everyone else.
Your were born to stand out. Don't let them put out your fire.
She went in the woods away
So afraid, all alone
They warned her, don't go there
There's creatures who are hiding in the dark
Then something came creeping
It told her, don't you worry just
Follow everywhere I go
Top over the mountains or valley low
Give you everything you've been dreaming of
Just let me in, ooh
Everything you wantin' gonna be the magic story you've been told
And you'll be safe under my control
Just let me in, ooh
Honestly, I am sickened by the fact that I called myself a believer before this year. When I was ashamed, afraid and terrified of people knowing about my faith and who I truly was. (I am by no means judging anyone going through that, I know what it’s like. It is so hard to get past but once you do…oh my goodness, it’s incredible). But truthfully, ask yourself this: if someone held a gun to your head and asked “Do you believe in God?” Would you say yes knowing you would be killed right then because of your faith?
My answer: I’m not sure. Right now, in the comfort of my warm bed I could easily say there is no way I would deny God and I would definitely profess he is my Lord. Yet I can admit that I don’t know if I would have that same mind set with fear tearing through me and the idea of death breathing down my neck with a gun pressed to my head.
But maybe the difference between you and I is that I WANT to be like that. We have laid dormant in our faith for so long because of fear and what people might say and of worldly selfishness. But God is so much more powerful and blesses us with so much more than we could ever imagine.
Jesus gave up his life and went through such a brutal death and why? Because we are evil people. He took up the cross and had his own father turn against him so we could be free from all the wrongs we’d do against him. That doesn’t seem fair now does it? It’s not and every day we need to be grateful for his mercy because he gave us the most amazing gift - life. Real life. True life. Eternal life.
Now I have another question - are you sleeping? Or are you awake?
Mark 14:37 “Then He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, ‘Simon, are you sleeping? Could you not watch one hour? Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.’”
Here is the night where Jesus will be betrayed and he is preparing himself for the his death that he knows is coming. When he goes to pray his disciples are supposed to stay and pray also yet their bodies are tired so they give into the flesh’s desires. Jesus comes to them twice after and finds them sleeping again each time.
How many times do you think God has wanted to do something in your life to change you, to bless you, to use you to help someone else or make a difference and he found you sleeping?
So ask yourself the question again, are you sleeping? Or are you awake?
Take this into consideration, the next time Jesus will come to see you will be the rapture (in other words, when all believers are saved and brought to heaven.) will you be sleeping or will you be awake? Because this is much more crucial then you being dormant to God’s command to go pray over someone. This is your salvation. This is a pass go and collect two hundred dollars card out of the devastation and evil that will consume the world after the rapture.
So are you going to wake yourself and live for God. To be radical and so madly in love with the only perfect being who will never let you go or are you going to be asleep and risk the chance of being left behind?
This is what inspired me to make this creation:

When I was eight, I was attacked...brutally attacked by a rooster..
I was chasing after a cat in a field..and a rooster filled with demons ran after me...
It seriously scratched my back and i was bleeding
it also scarred my heart.
forever.
Oh yeah, and we ate him the next night :X
One thing in life that I'm not afraid of is color. Maybe I embrace color so much because I'm an artist or maybe because I grew up in Detroit; the home of pink gators.

“We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.” ― Plato
We all know the feeling of a big dream failing to come to fruition. Last night I was dealing with that emotion and let myself feel fully the weight of it for a few minutes. After a long walk in the forest I renewed my quest and found beauty in the defeat. Our stories grow stronger when hardship rears it's head. It is our buildup to the climax that we will eventually write for ourselves; it is the road turning uphill when we most wish it would let us fly. And it is so sweet, the feeling of defeat, when you embrace it and release it with renewed hope. Failure will come for us all in one form or another, there is nothing unique in that. How we push through it into that dark unknown is what defines us. I'm moving forward into my particular darkness with so much hope that soon my light will flood the night sky.
