Neat-o

So it's summer, well been summer. Been an eventful one and will only get more exciting from here. I found an interesting section in one of my school books (yes gasp, a school book!). I would love to frame it actually but I'll have to choose the size of the frame, background and finally the gorgeous font that will accompany it. (I think of fun projects huh?)

~The Paradoxical Commandments~

People are illogical, unreasonable and self-centered.
Love them anyway.

If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.

If you are successful, you win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.

The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.

The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds.
Think big anyway.

People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs.
Fight for a few underdogs anyway.

What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.

People really need help by may attack you if you do help them.
Help people anyway.

Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you have anyway.

Now The Fungi's They Are Bloom

Random things I write/find I don't want to end up in the threads of cyberspace.

She now knew what it was to live in the moment. She could hear the symphony of the ocean waves and the stories waiting to be discovered in the clouds...She entered her own hell and was strong enough to rise above it. She entered a place where she knew she'd always be safe. She felt everything down to the blood in her veins to the beating of her heart. She breathed in life and time seemed to slow down. She soon discovered what was home to her and she now knew what it meant to feel {alive} -Psilocybin Experience-

There's beauty in the unknown and the un-guaranteed. I like the sound of whales and frogs during summer nights. I harbor inspiration, empathy, enthusiasm and disdain only if you let me. -"About Moi"-

Art = Life

It's tough being stingy with my money. But I came up with a great idea. Turn regular pictures into artwork. Here are some I'd like to print and frame.

This one taken by my sister at 6 am Sunday morning at OC, MD. Usually OC, doesn't look so peaceful and dare I say beautiful. That morning the dolphins were active, the sun was already up and the waves were working hard erasing yesterday's memories.


This one I discovered on another blog and the message is just so simple and the photograph is timeless. Black and white photos always have a mystery about them and with the Eiffel Tower presenting itself so effortlessly in the background makes it just that much more mysterious.







These are the Giza pyramids at twilight. Was looking for them at night... but the three men on camels, and the moon rising really made me change my mind.





This one (like my above photo) is a Hawkbill marine turtle. They are one of my favorite animals and just seeing them make me happy and smile. This photograph is very colorful and simple so I would like to add this to what would be my "art" collection. Choosing a frame will be difficult.
