Some of My Art

Lyrics to Wake Up :
Somethin’ filled up
my heart with nothin’,
someone told me not to cry.

But now that I’m older,
my heart’s colder,
and I can see that it’s a lie.

Children wake up,
hold your mistake up,
before they turn the summer into dust.

If the children don’t grow up,
our bodies get bigger but our hearts get torn up.
We’re just a million little god’s causin rain storms turnin’ every good thing to rust.

I guess we’ll just have to adjust.

With my lighnin’ bolts a glowin’
I can see where I am goin’ to be
when the reaper he reaches and touches my hand.

With my lighnin’ bolts a glowin’
I can see where I am goin’
With my lighnin’ bolts a glowin’
I can see where I am go-goin’

You better look out below!

The person I relate to most.

"I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me,
but it’s hard to stay mad when there’s so much beauty in the world, sometimes I feel like im seeing it all at once and it’s too much, my heart fills up like a balloon that’s about to burst, and then I remember to relax and stop trying to hold onto it and then it flows through me like rain and I can’t feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life, you have no idea what im talking about, im sure, but don’t worry, you will someday…"
— -Kevin Spacey, American Beauty

Pride is excessive belief in one’s own abilities, that interferes with the individual’s recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity.

Envy is the desire for others’ traits, status, abilities, or situation.

Gluttony is an inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires.

Lust is an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body.

Greed is the desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Avarice or Covetousness.

Sloth is the avoidance of physical or spiritual work.

It's like seeing someone and hoping they don't see you but hoping they take you home with them.

Don't just look.

See.

Sanctuary

Sanctuary.. is a word which here means a small, safe place in a troubling world. Like an oasis in a vast desert or an island in a stormy sea.

Being from a small town in East Texas, with nothing particularly special other than your average everyday beauty... It has always boggled me, why do birds stay here when they have wings to take them anywhere in the world they'd like to go. Maybe everything looks the same from birdseye-view, or maybe they know beauty I don't.
