Thought for The Day - What Do You Do When...

Fire and Ice (in process) 8 x 11 colored pencils

Incomplete sentences

Delivered in parts

Fragments as I sit and contemplate

Communication

A theme

Subject matter - expert I am not

My pencil over the paper, will not render a well sketched portrait,

A bowl of grapes, a bottle of wine and a candle will not come forth

But a soul used yet full of life

Will tell a story

Share these fragments

Render you captivated

And provide food for thought

Thoughts

That come to mind years from now

Sitting at breakfast

An idea comes to mind

And you'll say "I remember when..."

Thought for The Day - This is Where We are Now

Let's admit it: our crystal ball is broken and our "sticks" are defective. We can't see very well into the future, so we make guesses based on where we are at the moment - as if nothing new can ever occur.

• phones with cameras, email and text messages
• social networking with people you've never met in person, living in countries far away
• Traveling in trucks as smooth as a cadillac
• A four year degree that costs as much as a home

Our world is full of surprises and what we did yesterday may not be what we continue to do next week. Life shifts and the dream career becomes sour and unsatisfying. A child you thought would not accomplish much, surprises you and becomes the CEO of his own corporation. 

Roller coasters...that's what life like seems like. Hold on, we're going up, down and who knows maybe outside down!
