Remember in the art world never lose the person God expects you to be... it can become very worldly and lead you down a path of darkness that will be hard to escape from and the devil will be the one to make it feel ok...
You should be touching lives and awakening those dead lives to find their path... not lead them down a darker path.

Quoted by Donna

Sunshine won't you be my mother?
Sunshine come and help me sing
My heart is darker than these oceans
My heart is frozen underneath
Crooked soul trying to stay up straight
Dry eyes in the pouring rain
The shadow proves the sunshine
Two scared little runaways
Hold fast till the break of daylight
When the shadow proves the sunshine
Oh Lord why did you forsake me
Oh Lord don't be far away, away
Storm clouds gattering beside me
Please Lord don't look the other way
I'm a crooked soul trying to stay up straight
Shine on me
Let my shadows prove the sunshine

Destination

To know the place, to know the time
It is the purpose of this rhyme
For all the others who don't yet know
It's almost time for thee to show

The vision of a shadow, a shadow of a dream
For any who might question, all is what it seems

The hills that rise so peacefully
Above the sun bleached plains
Have long forgotten man's presence
Or the coming of the rains

It's not so much the presence
Of things that you can see
But rather it's the presence
Of things that used to be

And so it's there we turn now
With passion in our hearts
The hill surrounded valley
The place the future starts

Zachery had surgery on Monday and seems to be doing pretty good.  Won't start school till Monday.   Chandraya is getting the hang of her new schedule with school, dance and gymnastics.  Lila Mae is now going through her terrible two's at 3 1/2. Ugh.. I need to nip that in the butt right away.  Troy has been learning more about fitness and health.  He has been working out everyday to stay in shape for swimming this year with the highschool swim team.  He wants to qualify for the 50 and 500mm.. he also wants to build up more strength for the fly..he has the form just needs the strength.  

I have a wedding tomorrow.  Should go well, the lighting is excellent in the church. 

Everybody sees how you seem, however, only some know who you are.
