Happiness is finding something in a store that the sales staff told you that they do not carry anymore.

Do you hear that loud scraping noise? That is my ass dragging. Happens when I am moving in the opposite direction of my motivation.

DV6 - I Know What Your Going Say........

.....No you do not.

But even if you did, you should not stop me from saying it.

You should not dismiss an opinion.

It is referred to as "respect".

DV5 - Just Walk Away

The cost of gas is to high.

It is going to get higher.

Can you just walk away?

I say you can not.

We all should recognize that we are addicted to the use of gas.

We can not just walk away.....

But I will bet with a little mental game of "What If...." we can find a solution.

So let us play with this thought..

Your vehicle is nearly on empty. It will only just make it to the nearest gas station. When you arrive, you read a sign on the pump "No Gas Available in North America for 90 days."

Now you have to walk away. How are you going to exist for 90 days without a vehicle?

DV4 - As I Head Back to Work

Those who know me, know that I have a soft spot in my heart for those in the teaching trade. That extends to the private, uncertified teacher as well as those who are certified.

The teachers of the United States have become the whipping boy for the failings of the Federally mandated standardized education system. The "sheep" of this nation find it easier to go along with the government. It beats turning a mirror on ourselves. It is easier.

A simple truth. You should do it. If you do not believe the professionals involved in your child's education are capable.

It is an easy job.

Right??

Most importantly, stop being sheep to the governments rallying cries.

Sometimes Even I Stay Up To Late

I subtitled this one "Graven Image One".

I had a late night/early morning session with the PS3. Which resulted in about four hours of sleep. I will repeat this sometime in the future.

Start being the action

A ball of fluff being split in two by an axe.

Which are you?

The fluff?

or

The axe?

Perhaps, both.

But in the end, where/what you are going/achieving/desiring/attempting will only live if you take action against the fluff.

DV1 - What's with the Cake?

On April 25th, I started my first blog, DrawVersations.  The concept is an exploration on communication between groups and individuals without words.  By drawing.  Creating.

I hesitate to apply rules.  Simply, because I know that I will be the first to break the rules.  Which is really what DrawVersations is all about.  Breaking the rules on how we converse with each other.

It is not an original idea.  However, the term "DrawVersation" appears to be first coined here.  The art not great.  But will get better.  I know this, because I used to have a good hand for art.  I just have been away from it.  Trying to pay the bills doing other things.  More on that at another time.

As for the cake.  April 25th is my birthday.  I turned 50.

So for my birthday - I created a small work of art.  Created a new blog for that art.  Posted it Facebook and Twitter.  Got my Lady, to be my first follower.  Her brother was my first commenter (and, hopefully, not the last).  Spent the day with my Lady.  Eating good Indian food.  Shopping for camping gear.

It was a good birthday.

My two favorite gifts?  My Lady and the new blogsite.  In that order.

Let's have a DrawVersation.
