Ive missed you dearly your insight your encouragement your analogy your never ending loving attitude I bow before to honor a WONDERFUL being with respect FG October 7, 2006
tomatoes are red, except when they are green or orange or yellow. mostly they are red.
tomato is good in salad. tomato is good sliced thin and on top of pizza with feta cheese, greek olives, basil leaves & crushed garlic. no sandwich is complete without tomato. tomato removes the stink of a skunk, if you happen to get some on you. tomato is high in vitamin C and other nutrients. tomato is the main ingredient of a bloody mary, which is the best drink to have on an airplane, flying off to some amazing tropical adventure. tomato can be cherry. tomato can wake your mouth up and refresh your mind. tomato can be sweet. best of all, tomato can be harbinger. HUZZAH! to the harbinger, Tomato! October 6, 2006
Its a joy to be your friend Tomato. I love your positive outlook even when things aren't the best, and your posts in *Being Grateful* lift my spirits. May your life be filled with good friends and fun for all your days to come.

about me
I am an artist.
Metal sculpture mostly - but, can do (and enjoy) a number artistic processes. just love to create. I teach metal sculpture and welding at a local art/design college. I consider myself fortunate, because I walk or bike to work. In Los Angeles. Yes... I walk or bike to work *in Los Angeles*. >>>>> And he said unto them, within each of us lies the power of consent to health and to sickness, to riches and to poverty, to freedom and to slavery. It is we who control these, and not another." A mill-man spoke and said, "Easy words for you, Master, for you are guided as we are not, and need not toil as we toil. A man has to work for his living in this world." The Master answered and said, "Once there lived a village of creatures along the bottom of a great crystal river. The current of the river swept silently over them all - young and old, rich and poor, good and evil, the current going it's own way, knowing only it's own crystal self. Each creature in it's own manner clung tightly to the twigs and rocks of the river bottom, for clinging was their way of life, and resisting the current what each had learned from birth. But one of the creatures said at last, *I am tired of clinging. Though I cannot see it with my eyes, I turst that the current knows where it is going. I shall let go, and let it take me where it will. Clinging, I shall die of boredom. The other creatures laughed and said, *Fool! Let go, and that current you worship will throw you tumbled and smashed across the rocks, and you will die quicker that boredom!* But the one heeded them not, and taking a breath did let go, and at once was tumbled and smashed by the current across the rocks. Yet, in time, as the creature refused to cling again, the current lifted him free from the bottom, and he was bruised and hurt no more. And the creatures downstream, to whom he was a stranger, cried, *See a miracle! A creature like ourselves, yet he flies! See the Messiah, come to save us all!* And the one carried in the current said, *I am no more Messiah than you. The river deights to lift us free, if only we dare let go. Our true work is this voyage, this adventure.* But they cried the more, *Savior!* all the while clining to the rocks, and when they looked again he was gone, and they were left alone making legends of a Saviour <<<<< Illusions-Richard Bach

"what do I get out of this?" their first and foremost question... the concern for you is down the list... somewhere... maybe... they know they can't suck you completely dry... a lifeless corpse offers no companionship, no more for them to take... friendship a oneway street, "all roads lead to ME!"

"The Laws of Attraction are a beautiful, wondrous force of the universe but, when we use them primarily as a tool of acquisition, we are both missing the point and creating a mis-balance. It may not be a question of deserving - we all "deserve" our elbows and our noses. We all deserve to be happy but, if we make that happiness contingent on outside forces, elements, things and people, then we will never be happy because those are all fleeting and the acquisition - the "collecting" of t... read more  I don't post links very often... l BUT, I really really loved this short video I urge you to invest the 20 minutes! www.karmatube.org/videos.php the author of Eat, Pray, Love (sic) discusses the concept of genius... inspiring to all of us.

at one time I had a gaggle of goldfish, and as one or two would die I would buy more - replenish. then a disease hit... wiped out a bunch at once and just as soon as I would get a new fish he would die. so now I have two left, and even though I have tried a number of over the counter fish disease fixes - I am afraid to buy more lest they die. (not a financial concern more of an ethical compassion concern) I have two now... and I noticed one of them is listless... ... read more

a friend of mine and I were camping... this great campsite near Ventura CA. it was sunset and we were watching the last bright morsels of orange and the large fluffy wisps of darkening orange-red disappear beyond the horizon,. my friend is going through a hard breakup - feeling betrayed and hurt and distrustful and not very confident in herself or "guys" in general. she was just saying that at her base she was doubting the reliability-honesty and genuiness of men.

Impeach the Imperialist Kitten-Eater! ><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>< The first five people to respond to this post (and follow instructions) will get some form of art, by me, about them. I make no guarantees about quality or type, but I will assure that I will give it good effort, and that the art will be individual to you, so if you get a mixed CD or some sort of sculpture or poem, yours will be the only one like it. The only catch of course (in the spirit of gifting it forward) is this: if you sign up to get ... read more
