Best Girl
Her eyes were kind
A deep shade of brown that I’d find smiling at me
Like her mouth would
When I introduced myself
Or told a joke
She stood higher than the trunks of trees
I’d come alive like a flower in a soothing breeze
Her eyes were like mine
I could feel the curiosity in the gazes
Her hand sent waves of life through me
I felt I should always hold it ♥

Sharing My Heart
You give to me hope
And help me to cope
When life pulls me down
You bring me around
You teach me to care
And help me to share
You make me honest
With kindness the best
From you I learned love
With grace from above
It’s for you I live
And I want to give
You are the reason
That fills each season
When I hear love I think of you
You are my world and best friend too
I love you because you are so kind, thoughtful and caring
I love you because you are so pleasant, lovely and sharing.

Dear Soul Mate Listen!
You surprise me
Entice me
Love flows inside me
Tickle me entirely
I love & admire thee
You cover me
Smother me
Loved up so lo…ve…ly
You play with me
Stay with me
Talk all night & day with me
I wanna take off my Shades
I wanna look at you
I wanna take cooking classes
So I can cook for you
I wanna dance to music where the hook is you
& travel the miles that lovers do
Pray for you
Wait for you
Celebrate your birthday and bake cakes for you
Read to you
Be with you
Run in the sun
Just me and you
Sleep by you
Cry on you
Never take these two eyes off you
Share secrets in the dark with you
Give my whole heart to you
Touch your soul
Make you whole
Take longs trips on the road
Makes silly faces and watch you fold
Take as many pictures as cameras hold
Sit near you
Be clear with you
Hold your hand when I’m scared with you
Look up at the stars with you
Go so very far with you
Trust in you
Just in you
Speak your name
Touch your face
Hold you tight
Sweet embrace
Feel your warmth
Hear you talk
Watch you move
Copy your walk
Age with you
Praising you
Spend Summers in the shade with you
Cheer you on
Sing you songs
Love you so right it must be wrong
Knowing you like I do
Loving you was easy
Hear me when I say it’s true
Your heart-It really pleased me
& sometimes people don’t understand
They question in disbelief
But love isn’t hard to comprehend
It’s as natural as it seems
I don’t wish us to be any other way
But I do wish I could hold you
Remember your scent like yesterday
Be there to console you
I send my echo of infinite love
Something to show you
That though your love fills me up
The same would be said just to know you
So when these words get old & the stories are told
I hope you don’t ever forget
That the day I first fell in love with you…
Winds can just whisper & I’ll hear you
Rain can just drizzle & I’ll feel you
Slight chill passes & I miss you
Tear stained lips made to kiss you
You are not very far
Beating inside my chest
Left side sitting high
Right beneath my neck
Closing my eyes to see you
Breathing summer air just to smell
Wrapped up in sheets to embrace you
Quickly as night came and fell
Sunlight in my window says good morning
I stretch with a smile
Stars hit the skies where you are
A trillion gazillion miles
I reach for you all the time
See you in my dreams
Love you through the distance
Bursts at the seams
Watching the clock
Counting the days
Time will fly
We’ll be together
You’ll be okay
Storms Don’t Last Forever
Until today this has just been one of those crap inspirational quotes that you hear people say, but today it became so much more. I now believe that with the right intentions and faith in god you can achieve anything. So this is just a little message to remind myself that yes there can be some really hard days when nothing seems to be going right and all you want to do is cry and run away. But, if you stick to what you believe in most and get through the worst, there will be good days and these are the days that you need to remember when it gets tough…
Time heals everything, Storms don’t last forever…Cheers to better days! ❤
A Letter To My Love
Dear ARK,
You are a blessing from god–One that i would never take for granted.
Never in a thousand years did i ever think that, I could find the kind of Love and happiness that i have found in you. As the years go by, I stop and think about all the good times we’ve shared and the beautiful memories we’ve made and of course about the love we have between us that keeps growing stronger day by day.
I promise, i will stand by you everyday, I‘ll be there for your ups and downs and i will love you with all that have, now and always!
-Yours Truly
I was dying
First I was dying to finished high school & start college. And then I was dying to finish college and start working. And then I was dying to marry and have children. And then I was dying for my children to grow old enough for school so I could return to work. And then I was dying to retire.
And now, I am Dying…….
and suddenly I realize
I FORGOT TO LIVE….

Vivacity
You touched me
Without touching me
You spoke to me
Sent words deep into my heart
I don’t really know how you came to be
Yet, I’m thankful for you
I’m in awe
Your face
Your eyes
I smile with all the light inside of me
To know that I have you
In conversations
In life
The greatest sphere of confetti couldn’t compare
No amount of balloons
No color can match the colors you paint on my canvas
No beat can give me rhythm like your heart
I am consumed with feelings
On the brink of love
Falling off a cliff
No one can catch me from
– ARK
DON’T GET IN A HURRY
Everything on earth has its own time and its own season.
As you grow to spiritual maturity, there are several ways to cooperate with God in the process.
Growth is often painful and scary. There is no growth without change; there is no change without fear or loss; and there is no loss without pain. Every change involves a loss of some kind: You must let go of old ways in order to experience the new. We fear these losses, even if our old ways were self-defeating, because, like a worn out pair of shoes, they were at least comfortable and familiar.
People often build their identity around their defects. We say, “It’s just like me to be..” and “It’s just the way I am.” The unconscious worry is that it I let go of my habit, my hurt, or my hang-up, who will I be? This fear can definitely slow down your growth.
Believe God is working in your life even when you don’t feel it. Spiritual growth is sometimes tedious work, one small step at a time. Expect gradual improvement. “Everything on earth has its own time and its own season.” There are seasons in your spiritual life, too. Sometimes you will have a short, intense burst of growth (springtime) followed by a period of stabilizing and testing (fall and winter). What about those problems, habits, and hurts you would like miraculously removed? It’s fine to pray for a miracle, but don’t be disappointed if the answer comes through a gradual change. Over time, a slow, steady stream of water will erode the hardest rock and turn giant boulders into pebbles. Over time, a little sprout can turn into a giant redwood tree towering 350 feet tall.
Be patient with God and with yourself. One of life’s frustrations is that God’s timetable is rarely the same as ours. We are often in a hurry when God isn’t. You may feel frustrated with the seemingly slow progress you’re making in life. Remember that God is never in a hurry, but he is always on time. He will use your entire lifetime to prepare you for your role in eternity.
How God uses a long process to develop character, especially in leaders. He took eighty years to prepare Moses, including forty in the wilderness. For 14,600 days Moses kept waiting and wondering, “Is it time yet?” But God kept saying, “Not yet.” Contrary to popular book titles, there are no Easy Steps to Maturity or Secrets of Instant Sainthood. When God wants to make a mushroom, he does it overnight, but when he wants to make a giant oak, He takes a hundred years. Great souls are grown through struggles and storms and seasons of suffering. Be patient with the process.”Don’t try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed.”
Remember how far you’ve come, not just how far you have to go. You are not where you want to be, but neither are you where you used to be. Years ago people wore a popular button with the letters PBPGINFWMY. It stood for “Please Be Patient, God Is Not Finished With Me Yet.” God isn’t finished with you, either, so keep on moving forward. Even the snail reached the ark by persevering!
There is no growth without, change, no change without fear or loss, and no loss without pain.
Art & Design Theory
Good Art Inspires, Good Design Motivates.
When it comes to Art and Design, people have different notion about these subjects. While some of them consider Design being an Art, other will immediately tell you that Design has nothing to do with Art at all. Can Design become Art or Art become Design? Where lies the truth? Who is right and who is wrong? Can we even answer these questions successfully? Let’s take a closer look at both of these terms and examine them more thoroughly.
What is Art?
First we will talk about Art. What is art and how can we define it? Art, as itself, is very broad term. It includes visual art like paintings, drawing, sculpture, printmaking, design, crafts, fashion, ceramics, photography, video, filmmaking and architecture. Next are the performing arts – theatre, film, dance, music etc. And we should not forget the literature. All of these subjects are kinds of art and there are even more that left unnamed. It looks like it has no structure, like it is almost pure chaos, but there is still something we can say about Art. Art doesn’t have to be functional. Sure, you can use Faberge egg as an expansive paper weight or latest dress by Gucci as a floor cloth, but it is not a good idea. Function is simply not the goal Art is created for. Art is created … to be beautiful. It is created to raise and influence your emotions. This is the purpose of the Art – to influence, inspire, please or frustrate. It can make us happy or said. Art is personal.
Critics and Criticism
Interesting sub-topic in Art is criticism. Since Art has no rules and so depends on individual taste, it is hard to say what is good Art and what is not. Sommeliers do not have these problems. If some cocktail taste like crap, it is a crap. Simple and straight forward. Art is different. One person may like some painting or building while another dislikes it. If this is possible, how can any critic say what is good? When critic say that something is great should you like it just because of what he said? No way! That would be total nonsense. Art is more of a personal choice. It depends on your personality, tastes and mood. Keep it that way and don’t rely on anyone else.
What is Design?
After talking about Art let’s focus on Design for a while. Fortunately, defining Design – the good one – is much easier than in case of Art. Design can specified by some universal rules and principles. I am not talking about the Principles of good Design, Design exists to solve some problem. Therefore, it has to serve some function. This is a conclusion based on logic. You cannot argue with that. When someone Design new device, it is because the old one lacked some function or feature. This way you added that particular function – made an upgrade. Without this added function, new Design would have no reason to exist and people would have no reason to use it. It would be forgotten. See? At least in this world, Design can exist only if it has some purpose or goal to accomplish. No matter how stupid this goal is it is enough to keep it alive. Design is functional.
Conclusion
It all boils down to your personal preferences. Design has a guidelines you can follow and create something that can be called good design every time. Same thing cannot be said about Art. Art is more rebellious. It has no rules, guides or anything like it. Art defines itself with every piece and every work someone create all over again. It is not to say that Design cannot be rebellious or unrestrained too, but in many cases, it will cause its dysfunction and later on its end. Design has a purpose to exist and it is to be functional, to serve us. Art can exist, and it does, without any purpose or function. Do you think that “The Scream” painting by Edvard Munch has any function? Or “Girl with a Mandolin” by Pablo Picasso. No. They exist as an example of pure beauty. To close it … Art is not automatically Design and Design is not automatically an Art. It can become it, but it is not the same thing.
