I truly desire to find beauty in everything... but truth be told, not much of it makes sense. In my opinion, if we try hard enough, exert enough love, energy, hope and faith we can not only see it, we in turn can live it.
It took most of my life to accept that I am an artist, that I see things differently. I found this calendar from 1912 - absolutely amazing. It's 110 years old. It is copyrighted 1910 by Barse & Hopkins.
We can first start with the tassels.
Then we can look at the script.
Which was all done with pen and paper.
CROSSING THE BAR
"Sunset and evening star, And one clear call for me! And may there be no moaning of the bar, when I put it out to sea, but such a tide as moving seems asleep, too full for sound and foam, when that which drew from out of the boundless deep turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell, and after that the dark! And may there be no sadness of farewell.
When I embark; For tho' from out our Bourne of Time and Place - The flood may bear me far, I Ihope to see my Pilot face to face. When I have crossed the bar."
Tennyson
There is SO much to learn and absorb in the short time we have here. SO much to read, SO much to listen to, SO much to love, SO much beyond our comprehension.
The choice is simple - we either choose to live, laugh and love with no exception and expectations or we become a drop out, we quit. Well guess what? I'm not quitting.
As always,
Traci(ee), Tod and Cooper
