Self-Stalking - Inspiration in The Morning 16

(~*~)
Hello,
Welcome to a new month!

Sept.1/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 314
"My education was dismal. I went to a series of schools for mentally disturbed teachers."~Woody Allen (1935 - )
My Add:
Let us not forget that WE are "interviewing" the teachers for the role of teaching our children. NOT the other way around for the school to allow us the "privilege" of teaching our kids if they like us parents as a person. School is meant to teach the positives of academics. (^^^)
+++
Sept.6/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 315
"The school of hard knocks is an accelerated curriculum."~Menander (342 BC - 292 BC)
My Add:
It's curriculum is every day, and in every way. It is sometimes unforgiving, cold, and "heartless"; but "what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger". As we are, or as improved individuals, depends on what we do with the information learned. Let's go forth, and strive to become better than we are. HAPPY FREEDOM HUMP DAY!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Sept.7/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 316
"A sense of curiosity is nature's original school of education."~Dr. Smiley Blanton
My Add:
Without curiosity we would not have advancement in MANY things... including ourselves. Continual "construction" of who we are/ want to be is an ongoing journey, that takes our curious mind through many adventures. Let's not forget that learning is NOT JUST in school, and we can learn something new EVERY day. (*@^@*)
+++
Sept.8/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 317
"Out of life's school of war: What does not destroy me, makes me stronger."~ Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900), The Twilight of the Idols (1899)
My Add:
School is not JUST in the classroom; and life can be full of "obstacles", disappointments, and failures. What we do after is what can keep our world the same, or change it for the better. Keeping our hearts & minds in the realm of positive "perspectives", can really help. (^^^)
+++
Sept.9/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 318
"The Past: Our cradle, not our prison; there is danger as well as appeal in its glamour. The past is for inspiration, not imitation, for continuation, not repetition."~Israel Zangwill
My Add:
Inspiration and continuation make a great "team" when applied to unfinished projects, and improvements of. When improvements become "progression", it evolves into a NEW invention. But objective view points are needed, before we can be "inventors". (^^^)
+++
Sept.12/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 319
"Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance."~Will Durant (1885 - 1981)
My Add:
We must remember to keep our hearts & minds open to learn. Because the more we learn, the more we realize we didn't know. Spreading the LOVE!!! (^^^)
+++
Sept.14/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 320
"Progress might have been all right once, but it has gone on too long."~Ogden Nash (1902 - 1971)
My Add:
When we feel this way, it usually means that it's either time to finish the "project", or move onto another. We don't want to become "stagnant" with our thoughts on any project, so it's always good to "take a small break" if needed. But it's equally as important to get back to it, and "finish what we started".
Happy HUMP DAY!!! (^^^)
+++
Sept.15/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 321
"All progress is based upon a universal innate desire on the part of every organism to live beyond its income."~ Samuel Butler (1835 - 1902), Notebooks, 1912
My Add:
This probably started as soon as MONEY was used to barter with; and especially now with "taxes". I find that creativity is a GREAT way to try and achieve this!!! Happy "Thirsty" Thursday!!! (^^^)
+++
Sept.16/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 322
"Usually, terrible things that are done with the excuse that progress requires them are not really progress at all, but just terrible things."~Russell Baker (1925 - )
My Add:
If we don't recognize the difference, then we must learn to. As sometimes it also becomes a matter of "just because we can, doesn't mean we should.
WILD WICKED WEEKEND WISHES!!! (^^^)

Sept.19/11 Inspiration in the Mornings... 323
"1492. As children we were taught to memorize this year with pride and joy as the year people began living full and imaginative lives on the continent of North America. Actually, people had been living full and imaginative lives on the continent of North America for hundreds of years before that. 1492 was simply the year sea pirates began to rob, cheat, and kill them."~Kurt Vonnegut (1922 - 2007), Breakfast of Champions
My Add:
Ye be negative years with many negative deeds after that. Now it continues... our "pirates" are just on land. BEWARE of ye negative pirates that pretend to be your friend!!! Lest they be called "frienemies". (^^^)
+++
Sept.20/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 324
"Half our life is spent trying to find something to do with the time we have rushed through life trying to save."~Will Rogers (1879 - 1935)
My Add:
Rushing to do things is part of Life, trying to save is part of our instincts. Trying to balance them without anxiety is another matter all together. Let's not forget to breath!!! (^^^)
+++
Sept.21/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 325
"The best and safest thing is to keep a balance in your life, acknowledge the great powers around us and in us. If you can do that, and live that way, you are really a wise man."~Euripides (484 BC - 406 BC)
My Add:
Then we could hopefully use this wisdom/ knowledge to "improve" on things both in our own lives, and those around us. What a better world we could make!!! Spreading the Love... (^^^)
+++
Sept.22/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 326
"The brain is a wonderful organ. It starts working the moment you get up in the morning and does not stop until you get into the office."~Robert Frost (1874 - 1963)
My Add:
Monday's may be "manic" for some of us, but it's always a fresh start to a week. Either way, it's inspirational if you choose to see "the cloud's silver lining". (^^^)
+++
Sept.23/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 327
"You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on your own.
And you know what you know.
And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go...."~Dr. Seuss (1904 - 1991), Oh! The Places You'll Go!
My Add:
Nothing like Dr. Suess to set things straight. What we do with the knowledge we have, and where we go in Life IS up to each of us. Let's never forget that we have CHOICES, and that WE "steer" our own paths.
Spreading the LOVE!!! (^^^)
+++
Sept.26/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 328
"Ideas must work through the brains and arms of men, or they are no better than dreams."~Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 - 1882)
My Add:
We dream by night, we dream by day... we all have dreams for our lives. And what we remember we can try to use for the good. It's the informed decisions of wisdom along the way that are hard. (^^^)
+++
Sept.27/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 329
"Nothing contributes so much to tranquilizing the mind as a steady purpose - a point on which the soul may fix its intellectual eye."~Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797 - 1851)
My Add:
Once our mind is calm/ "tranquilized" and our soul's intellectual eye is fixed on this steady purpose, much more can become clear - kinda like meditation.
Aaaahhh... clarity, you have always been a sought after friend. (^^^)
NOTE: Did you know that Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley is actually the ORIGINAL author of "Frankenstein"? She's also one of my favorites... (^^^) Here's the info.: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Shelley
+++
Sept.28/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 330
"Brains, like hearts, go where they are appreciated."~Robert S. McNamara (1916 - ), former U.S. Secretary of Defense
My Add:
If you know where you're appreciated, then great. For those that don't, maybe it's time to take that "step back" for a better objective viewpoint. After all even when we ask opinions of friends, only WE know the full details to make the "informed" decisions. Don't be fooled now, only truth can be our guide. (^^^)
+++
Sept.29/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 331
"Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower."~Albert Camus (1913 - 1960)
My Add:
In Canada this "second spring" is the COLD version! And "every leaf is a flower" that gets trampled into the ground and becomes it's "blanket" during the winter. Aaahhh how nature shows inspires us, even in ways of Eco-friendlyness. (^^^)
+++
Sept.30/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 332
"Fiery colors begin their yearly conquest of the hills, propelled by the autumn winds. Fall is the artist."~Takayuki Ikkaku, Arisa Hosaka and Toshihiro Kawabata, Animal Crossing: Wild World, 2005
My Add:
When the winds are warm, Fall truly is a BEAUTIFUL time of year. The artistry alone can take our breath away. Let's not forget that our world plays host to so many inspirations. After all, we "humans" may not be the only artists in our world, but we are the only ones that can choose to portray what we see. Spreading the LOVE of nature today... (^^^)

Catch the start of this, catch the last one, or continue with more!

Self-Stalking - Inspiration in The Morning 15

Hello,
Welcome to a new month!

Aug.2/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 292
"An empowered organization is one in which individuals have the knowledge, skill, desire, and opportunity to personally succeed in a way that leads to collective organizational success."~Stephen Covey, Principle-centered Leadership
My Add:
When becoming a "collective" group; communication, effort persistence, and staying optimistic are keys. We, are no exception to this. (*@^@*)
+++
Aug.3/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 293
"The creative act is not performed by the artist alone; the spectator brings the work in contact with the external world by deciphering and interpreting its inner qualifications and thus adds his contribution to the creative act."~Marcel Duchamp
My Add:
Without an "audience" of sorts, an artists work is unnoticed, unappreciated, and lives only in the artist. HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (^^^)
+++
Aug.4/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 294
Preparing for things is never "easy", and there's always lots to think about. It's important to write a list (or more than one if necessary); of what's needed to be brought, what errands may need to be ran prior to, and anything that may have been forgotten. On that note... I think I'm almost ready for Saturday... got lots done yesterday, but not everything. Let's hope it's all done in time... (^^^)
+++
Aug.5/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 295
In honour of "International Beer Day": "We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us."~Charles Bukowski (1920 - 1994)
My Add:
Life is short, and meant to be enjoyed in many ways. Any sense of freedom is a "golden ticket", that can help reduce Life's stresses. Why worry so much... instead let's cause the tremble!!! Doing this at the party tomorrow!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Aug.8/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 296
"The supreme accomplishment is to blur the line between work and play."~Arnold Toynbee (1889 - 1975)
My Add:
Many say that my "work" IS play... lol I guess I've succeeded then... & I try to share every time a project involves FWFF. May there be many more to come!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Aug.9/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 297
"Beyond talent lie all the usual words: discipline, love, luck -- but, most of all, endurance."~James Baldwin (1924 - 1987)
My Add:
Endurance, motivation, & a faith that things will work out, is what gets us through many "trials & tribulations". Not only in Life, but also our creative endeavors. Motivation & faith are not enough. Without endurance we give up MANY hopes, dreams, and possible realities. (*@^@*)
+++
Aug.10/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 298
"If you wish success in life, make perseverance your bosom friend, experience your wise counselor, caution your elder brother and hope your guardian genius."~ Joseph Addison (1672 - 1719)
My Add:
Perseverance is SUCH a useful tool, that we would be foolish to cast it aside so easily with procrastination. Continuing pic. editing... THANKZ for the FWFF!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Aug.11/11 Inspiration in the Morning 299
It truly is inspirational to hear all the feedback, when I was set up in the chapel... So a HUGE THANKZ for all the encouraging words, and to everyone that participated in our Halloween Calendar this year!!! & of course those that participated in the Alternative Models Shoot!!! HUGE GRINZZZ!!! (*@^@*)

"The brain is a wonderful organ. It starts working the moment you get up in the morning and does not stop until you get into the office." ~ Robert Frost (1874 - 1963)
My Add:
My brain kicks in before the alarm, then I can't sleep. At my "office"... sleep wants me back. Resistance kicks my brain into high gear by 10am. Now to get more done...

WILD WICKED WEEKEND WISHES!!! (^^^)
+++
Aug.15/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 301
Attended another WICKED B-Day party this Saturday, and I find myself glad to have the friends I do!!! After all, where would we be in this world without those we Love and those who love us back? Loved ones and ourselves (of course), are the keys to a happier survival!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Aug.16/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 302
"Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time."~ Rabbinical Saying
My Add:
Girl or boy, they are in a new era... one we can only guess what may happen. Our children ARE our future of the WORLD!!! We must let them be free to explore & learn; if things are to be discovered and hopefully helpful for our planet's improvements. (^^^)
+++
Aug.17/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 303
There's nothing like good friends that help out in a pinch!!! To all those good friends out there: You are our "angels", and what keeps hope alive!!! You know who you are... WE LOVE & APPRECIATE YOU!!! HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Aug.18/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 304
"Children are all foreigners."~Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 - 1882)
My Add:
Because everything is NEW to them, it's like learning a new language. Everything must be learned, experimented with, and the like. Let's help them the best that we can... without our own prejudices, biases, and the ugly tempers of intolerance we all can have. It may be harder than "the easy way", but it's definitely WORTH IT!!! CHEERS TO OUR CHILDREN!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Aug.19/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 305
"Fate chooses your relations, you choose your friends."~Jacques Delille
My Add:
Some friends are temporary, some are for life. Some are "real", some are fake. Those that are going to stay with you "through thick or thin" are the REAL friends. Fake friends are only there to steal from you, deceive you, use you, or all of the above. These I call "frienemies". Let's keep the REAL friends, and rid ourselves of the stresses of frienemies. (*@^@*)
+++
Aug.22/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 306
"Don't worry about people stealing an idea. If it's original, you will have to ram it down their throats."~Howard Aiken (1900 - 1973)
My Add:
Photography is an art form, and deserves the same respects as any other. Posting pics BEFORE the time of release, is still considered as "stealing". It steals the possibility of the pic(s) in question being used when time comes. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE... PLEASE REMOVE THE PIC. Thankz (^^^)
+++
Aug.23/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 307
"Follow your passion. Stay true to yourself. Never follow someone else's path unless you're in the woods and you're lost and you see a path. By all means, you should follow that."~Ellen DeGeneres, Tulane Commencement Speech, 2009
My Add:
Which path we choose is completely up to us... but we will be much happier in Life, & with ourselves; if we choose to stay true to ourselves & those we care for. (^^^)
+++
Aug.24/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 308 (SUPER LATE)/ 'Afternoon Ass-miration'... 1
I'm sooo excited for our Halloween Calendar 2011/ 2012 coming out this year!!! Editing pics all week allows you to really see a difference once done. Let's NOT forget to DOUBLE CHECK anything that may be "amiss" before sending them to the printer shall we... lol (*@^@*)
+++
Aug.25/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 309
Whether starting a new task, or continuing an old one... There's nothing like the feel of accomplishment one gets when they finish a task, and know they can move onto another one. Calendar pics done... CHECK! Order submitted... CHECK! Calendars will be out VERY SOON!!! WOO HOO!!! Now onto another project... (*@^@*)
+++
Aug.26/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 310
"When you encounter difficulties and contradictions, do not try to break them, but bend them with gentleness and time."~Saint Francis de Sales (1567 - 1622)
My Add:
Plans can change and add more difficulties, but there is usually a way around them. Sometimes we just need to keep our minds open to see it, or to accept the help of others. Either way sometimes this "way around" can also be a BETTER way. Here's to staying positive & hopefull! (^^^)
+++
Aug.29/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 311
"Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds."~Herodotus (484 BC - 430 BC), Inscription, New York City Post Office, adapted from Herodotus
My Add:

Self-Stalking - Inspiration in The Morning 14

(~*~)
Hello,
Welcome to a new month!
=
Jul.1/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 272"There are admirable potentialities in every human being. Believe in your strength and your youth. Learn to repeat endlessly to yourself, 'It all depends on me.' "~Andre Gide (1869 - 1951)
My Add:
Strength & youth live in us all our lives, and repetition is the best way to learn. Everything we want, will always depend on our own actions & decisions. Let's keep it positive. (*@^@*)
+
CANADA DAY BONUS:
Should there be an 'Inspiration in the Morning' this day? After all living in Canada & knowing some of us "creatives" here, and all our Canadian actors, etc... Isn't THAT inspiration??? I LOVE CANADA!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.5/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 273
I've been rearranging, and my closet again is being re-organized. WOO HOO!!! Time to get some serious costume choosing opportunities available!!! Anyone up for the Halloween calendar shoot this month, will have an easier time looking through things!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.6/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 274
With BIG organizational tasks, I find it best to take it one step at a time and have at least 1 helper for things that are too heavy to lift ourselves. If your helper is good at organizing, then ask for their help. Otherwise, it may cause stressses of your friend/ helper getting in the way or putting things in the wrong place(s).
HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.7/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 275
Sometimes we need a break from the BIG organizational tasks, so we can "see" our efforts. This can be an important motivation to continue, and gives us a chance to "change" things if we feel it's needed. Yup, sometimes the old "one step back", can help us to take "two steps forward". (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.8/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 276
Nothing "worth it" is ever easy, or done without effort. BIG organizational tasks can be overwhelming, but if we keep at it a little at a time... we may find it done before we realize it. WILD WICKED WEEKEND WISHES!!! (^^^)
+++
Jul.11/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 277
After an attempt to catch a SUNDAY bus and missing it, I walked a long distance yesterday. This could have been a deterrent, but I knew I would be happy once it was over... not just because it was over, but also because of where I was going. It was REALLY nice to take a night off from home. Goes to show us, unwanted tasks now, can lead us to happiness later. (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.12/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 278
Organizations are not always "behind the scenes", and a lot of times are VERY necessary. We must NOT forget the "big picture" when it comes to these things, and remember that it may be these little details that help a LOT. Getting more organized takes motivation & determination. Without them, procrastination can defeat us. (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.13/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 279
Worked hard in the closet yesterday... got a WHOLE side of the room reorganized, & unpacked a large bin!!! WOO HOO!!! Pics coming to 'Chris' Closet' soon... (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.14/11 Inspiration int the Morning... 280
"Don't agonize. Organize."~Florynce Kennedy
My Add: If you're not organized, finding things can be agony. Sooo happy to be getting more and more organized each time I go in my closet. Hmmm... may be time for a beer to celebrate tonight. (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.15/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 281
What started out as visiting one of us yesterday, turned into a 'Meeting of the Minds'. How WONDERFUL to see you all & get to "know another side" of you!!! You know who you are... (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.18/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 282
This weekend included 3 photo shoots; 1 started it off in the early afternoon, and ALL were with great people... Gotta LOVE FWFF!!! Sorry, but pics won't come until all shoots are done, and all calendar pics are decided on. (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.19/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 283
There's nothing quite like going through pics... some are good, some are bad... but they're all GREAT memories!!! For those that have "come out to play" with the Halloween calendar photo shoots... I'm glad to see some new faces, and some repeats. THANKZ so much for the fun!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.20/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 284
After helping others with a project yesterday, I am reminded of how collaboration really is a resource. Whether helping or getting help, it's the involvement that gives us experience and allows us fun social interaction with others. These are "visits" that are always welcome, and can be lots of FWFF (fun with family & friends). CHEERS to collaborating, & HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.21/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 285
Some times we get caught up in the momentum of movement, and "wear ourselves thin". Without much needed breaks we may lack our full concentration, and we may not be happy with the outcome. At times like these sleep and a lot of "R&R" is called for... and of course some time with our loved ones. (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.22/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 286
Editing, editing, editing... It's sooo nice to have so many to edit after 3 great shoots from last weekend. Now for this weekend... let's see what "comes around". Hmmm... Maybe it's time for a dip in the pool... sounds like FWFF (fun with family & friends) to me!!! Wild Wicked Weekend Wishes!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.25/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 287
When you are always busy with business, it's hard to spend time with those you love. We MUST remember to make time for them... after all, they quite often are our major supports & help. Starting this week off right, and giving recognition to those "behind the scenes"!!! I LOVE you all... you know who you are! (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.26/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 288
In honour of "one voice day" (too bad it's not time to vote)... Our voices are marvelous! We can do sooo many things with it. Whisper, talk, yell, whistle, hum, sing, call other animals (if we know how)... all forms of communication. It is important that we use it towards those that are in "power" to voice our needs & stand up for our rights!!! Let's not waste it! (*@^@*)
Of course those in "power" could be parents, older siblings, caregivers, teachers, etc... and yes, politicians (BLAH!). If we remain silent, we remain "voiceless".
+++
Jul.27/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 289
I always find it inspirational to talk with fellow artists... It's AMAZING what can "be in the works" when done. It can even give me "homework", but at least it's the kind I WANT to do. Sooo many possibilities coming up, it's mind bogglingly WICKED!!! HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (*@^@*)
+++
Jul.28/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 290
Some days you wake up still tired... could be the rain. Many seem to get sad with the rain, when in fact it should be the other way. Rain brings LIFE to ALL things living. Without it, we would not have MANY of the things we enjoy daily... including plants, animals, food, ourselves, and each other. CHEERS to the rain!!! (^^^)
+++
Jul.29/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 291
When involved in big events. it is always helpful to prepare early. Especially if it involves making arrangements/ packing. Otherwise, procrastination can get the better of us later if we don't. Spent 3 hrs in my closet packing for my last "open to the public" Halloween calendar shoot last night. WOO HOO!!! (*@^@*)

Catch the start of this, catch the last one, or continue with more!

Hello,
Welcome to a new month!

Jun.1/11 Inspiration in the Morning.... 251
“The willing, Destiny guides them; the unwilling, Destiny drags them" ~ Seneca
My Add:
Hump days can certainly feel this way, but it's also the longest day of the week. Let's not get discouraged; for it is the "slow and steady turtle" that wins the race!!! (^^^)
+++
Jun.2/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 252
We who know the error in understanding of thousands of years, must be the kind hand that guides them home to the light! This is true with MANY aspects of Life, and requires caution not only while guiding, but also for those of us being guided. Life is "tricky", we usually only get ONE chance to succeed... let's not take it for granted. (^^^)
+++
Jun.3/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 253
It's not the one who holds negative prospectives, actions, and judgments against others that count; it's the one that strives valiantly through the 'arena of errs', and (despite shortcomings) attempts to "give themselves" to worthy causes. Let's keep up the valiant efforts... shall we?
WILD WICKED WEEKEND WISHES!!! (^^^)
+++
Jun.6/11 Inspiration in the Morning... #254
"I have never met a vampire personally, but I don't know what might happen tomorrow."-Bela Lugosi
My Add:
A lot can happen "tomorrow", so let's be as prepared for "change" as we can. With an open heart & mind to welcome it, and a free spirit to enjoy it. Those with spontaneous souls, are usually more prepared; but it doesn't mean the rest of us can't be also. (*@^@*)
+++
Jun.7/11 Inspiration in the Morning... #255
"There are two levels of vampirism: one is the regular vampire, which is just like it has always been; and then there's the super vampires, which are a new breed we've created."~Guillermo del Toro
My Add:
Our ability to take something already in existence, and improve on it/ turn it into something else. NEVER forget this is one of our "SUPERPOWERS"!!! Spreading the LOVE!!! (^^^)

Rewording Kip Baldwin: The journey of being what we are & hope to be, started when we were young. Learning from moments of failure, passing on negatives; and being honest & "real".

Comments:
Brad Crothers: I used to listen to U2 back in the late 80's/early 90's (you know, when they were worth listening to) There's a lyric in the song "The Fly" on Achtung Baby: "Every artist is a canibal, every poet is a thief. All kill their inspiration, then sing about the grief."
Wild Wicked Women - Creative Group WOW!!! Powerful words... my "perception": artists are cannibals & poets are thieves in the sense that we use our surroundings, but are also inspired by other artists & poets. Would you agree Brad?
Brad Crothers: I took it as artists and poets' creations are partly driven by the creations of others. And whether I like it or not, there's a lot of people who plagiarize and claim things as their own. Thanks for the "inspiration in the morning!"
Wild Wicked Women - Creative Group Totally agree with you as well... and np... I like doing these inspiration in the mornings... (^^^)

ORIGINALLY:
"Frugality without creativity is deprivation."~Amy Dacyczyn
My Add:
Yup... A theme week!!!
Why be frugal with creating, when you can add sooo much more detail/ quality to the item when you "spend that extra dollar"... Don't go out of your budget now. Why not use today's "extra time" - being Hump day - to do the "research/ development"? LOVE to you all!!! HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (^^^)
P.S. It's 'Tease ya Tuesday'
FIXED:
COMMENT:
By me: Ooops... thought it said "Frugality WITHIN creativity..." LMAO

"Creativity is a drug I cannot live without."~Cecil B. DeMille (1881 - 1959)

May 25/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 246
As Bruce Lee says... Fear, hatred, and anger are our "inner demons".
We must have an open love filled heart & mind to find peace, joy and spiritual prosperity. Not violence, anger, and fear as solutions/ uncontrolled reactions to conflicts & problems.
"Real": honest, and respectful to ourselves & those around us.
HAPPY HUMP DAY!!! (^^^)
+++
May 26/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 247

“It's exhilarating to be alive in a time of awakening consciousness; it can also be confusing, disorienting, and painful.” ~ Adrienne Rich
My Add: Confusion, disorientation, and pain should not be seen as a deterrent... only as part of the learning process that can be "harnessed" for better uses. Let's not stop the creating, when it can make this world a better place. (^^^)

My Add:
For without an open mind, MANY possibilities are denied access. And let's NOT forget that our hearts MUST be open also to allow such things. For without BOTH being open, progression in life can be delayed or even stop all together. (^^^)
+++
Mar.2/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 190
Delayed until later this morning... too busy at present. (^^^)
(LATE) Inspiration in the Morning... 190

"If men had wings and bore black feathers, few of them would be clever enough to be crows" ~ Rev Henry Ward Beecher

"Inspiration exists, but it has to find us working." ~ Picasso
My Add:
Inspiration will always be all around us. We need to just open our eyes to see it, and use our imaginations to act upon it. For if we are not motivated to do something with it, then much could be lost. Welcome to a new week... Let's refresh our minds, and go forth with an open heart. (^^^)

"If you can, help others; if you cannot do that, at least do not harm them." - The Dalai Lama.
My Add:
First they must WANT the help. Secondly, they must be able to be helped. Sometimes this is beyond anyone's control, and the pursuit is in vain. Frustration is then the name of the game, and we must be able to "let it go" without anger/ violence. (^^^)
+++
Mar.10/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 196
"Sometimes the hardest part of life is knowing which bridges to cross and which to burn" - Unknown

"Execution is KEY; Genius is: 1% inspiration, & 99% perspiration" - Thomas Edison (1847-1931)
My Add: Inspiration can come from anywhere, and it's 99% perspiration due to the efforts we make. If we don't "follow through" with things we start/ commit to, then WE are the ones that "miss out".

My Add: Meaning and value can be obtained through becoming/ "inventing" ourselves. But we MUST take action to do so. Nothing like "starting anew" on a Monday!!! (^^^)

Mar.19/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 203
"Beauty is in the ideal of perfect harmony which is in the universal being; truth the perfect comprehension of the universal mind. We individuals approach it through our own mistakes and blunders, through our accumulated experience, through our illumined consciousness— how, otherwise, can we know truth?" ~ Unknown

Comment from me: My Add: The beauty within, and the truth of conscious experiences & decisions... ALWAYS something to enjoy & look forward to. Let's not leave them out. Spreading the LOVE today. (^^^)

"'The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy" ~Martin Luther King

"Light finds her treasure of colours through the antagonism of clouds."~Fireflies (1928)
My Add: When your "skies seem grey" and depressing, look for the "silver lining"; for here is where the colours will be "hiding". To have such a discovery when so down, is not just like "a breathe of fresh air", it can give you back "Life". Spreading the LOVE!!! (^^^)

“Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness.” ~ Martin Luther King, Jr

"No plan survives first contact with the enemy!" - Helmuth von Moltke (Prussian General Field Marshal)

(~*~)
Hello,
Welcome to a new month!

Feb.1/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 168
TRUE Love can be like fossils... hard to find and precious... If you look hard enough and dig far enough, eventually you will find it!!! You never know until you explore. Don't forget to keep your heart & minds open, and don't cast it away as if it's a rock. Good luck out there in the Lands of Love... I hope you find what you're looking for!!! (^^^)
+++
Feb.2/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 170
Today is HUMP DAY once again... Many think that "humping" is just an act of sex. But if you are with the "right person", then it's more like "making Love". I hope we all can/ have found the "right person", and that we actually KNOW it. For knowing is just the start...
Otherwise, I wish for you all to have "Someone WICKED" come your way!!!
HAPPY HUMP DAY EVERYONE!!! (^^^)
+++
Feb.3/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 171
Life can be FRUSTRATING, but those that love you will always be there for you. So even when things look negative, remember that you can always discuss whatever it may be and "work things out". We all need to be independent, but we need others just as much for survival. Cherish those who love you back!!! For these are the "true friends" that may just last a life time. (^^^)
+++
Feb.4/ 11 Inspiration in the morning... 172
TGIF!!! After running back and forth all week, I'm due for a rest! Yup, time to let loose, do some more sewing and hopefully finish some things started this week. In times of fatigue we don't always get done what we would like, but at least I know what it is to finish it. And then... Let the weekend BEGIN!!!
Wild Wicked Weekend Wishes!!! (^^^)
+++
Feb.7/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 173
To start another week, "like a virgin" to it's "tarnishings"... Today is WHITE day, and there's PLENTY of it outside. I plan on staying in and recovering from this cold. So while I'm here, I will be sharing some photos later... Keep your eyes open for them, as they will probably be on my projects page. Otherwise, my darlingks... have a wild & wicked day!!! (^^^)

"Little minds are tamed and subdued by misfortune, but great minds rise above them." - Author Unknown
My Add:
With a plumbing problem (once again) last week that finally got fixed yesterday, and waking up today to find a hole in Zack's bedroom ceiling... how do I "rise above" it... by having faith that I WILL soon move. HAPPY HUMP DAY EVERYONE!!! (^^^)

Feb.10/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 176
"To the world, you may be one person, but to one person you just might be the world." -Unknown
My Add:
Just being around each other can "put you in the ultimate mood". So if you happen to know who that person is that feels this way about you and you like them back... why not be with that special someone? After all, everyone needs "someone special" in their lives to Love. (^^^)

Feb.11/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 177
"Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere"~Albert Einstein

In comment from me: Whether it's a book/movie, activity/ event, or even something as simple as a poem... I LOVE IT ALL!!! It's just ONE of the many beautiful aspects of the creative process itself!!!

"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it"~Rumi
My Add:
Falling in Love can be a HUGE change for some of us. If we can learn to let down our defenses, we just might find someone wonderful!!! I hope you can allow yourself the happiness that Love can bring. (^^^)

Feb.16/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 180
"In a gentle way, you can shake the world."~Mahatma Ghandi
My Add:
It takes one WICKED idea to be said, and others to "spread the word". It could go ANYWHERE, and turn into something EXCELLENT!!! Otherwise... In not-so-gentle ways, you can shake your lover awake for some 'nookie in the morning'... Nothing like starting the day off right! So go ahead and do it already!!! (^^^)
+++
Feb.17/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 181
"In order to experience everyday spirituality, we need to remember that we are spiritual beings spending some time in a human body."~Barbara De Angelis
My Add:
Meditation and other forms of "relaxation techniques" are a MUST, for keeping ourselves "in the ultimate mood". Without them, stress can overwhelm us and cause "friction" with those we love. Relaxation is the KEY!!! (^^^)

“God loved the birds and invented trees. Man loved the birds and invented cages.” Jaques D

+++
Feb.19/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 183
“We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly” - Unknown
My Add:
For without an open mind & heart, we are unable to see what I call 'the beauty within'. And if we can only see the negatives of others, where would our world be? Here's to being more "open" towards others. Time to keep ourselves "open" towards others. (^^^)
+++
Feb.22/ 11Inspiration in the Morning... 184
"No Matter what sort of difficulties, how painful the experience is, if we lose our hope, that's our real disaster." - The Dalai Lama
My Add:
There will ALWAYS be hope as long as you strive for it. Nothing is ever achieved/ gained without the drive for something better, inspiration to begin, and the hope to see it completed/ attained. NEVER lose hope for a better life!!! (^^^)
+++
Feb.23/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 185
"The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware." ~Henry Miller

Feb.25/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 187
"Whatever you can do or dream, you can begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it." ~ Goethe
My Add:
Imagination is the spark of creativity, and with it comes options. This creates variety. I've always said that 'variety is the spice of Life'. Without "guts" to go through with it, there would be far less progression in our world. (^^^)
+++
Feb.26/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 188
"A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world." Oscar Wilde

Jan. 11/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 153
Love... interestingly perplexing topic. It can lift your spirits, inspire you, throw you in a dizzying spin, and "chew you up, & spit you out". Why are some of us "out there" sooo "hung up" on it? Because of the BEAUTY WITHIN!!! I have written on this topic before... perhaps I'll write some more. How about you? What inspires you to write about it? (^^^)
+++
Jan. 12/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 154

Wild Wicked Weekend Wishes!!! (^^^)
+++
Jan. 15/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 157
Starting a new week is always hard to get out of bed... but it's sooo worth it when you have good behaved young children. They can always find a way to lift your spirits and make you laugh.

Jan. 21/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 160
Thursdays have been known to bring on "ultimate moods"... mine is knowing that I have good friends!!! They lift my spirits when I'm down, and are always there whenever I may need them, or just want to say hello.
Yup, they are the "ultimate"!!! (^^^)
+++
Jan. 22/11 Inspiration in the morning... 161
While I caught up to my archiving of these "inspirations" in the last couple nights, I have noticed that I missed a few numbers along the way. I'll have to add them to the archives later on. Otherwise, it's Friday once again, and I'm getting ready to celebrate Colin's B-Day this weekend... WOO HOO!!! Can't wait to see him!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE (^^^)
+++
Jan. 24/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 162
"They" say that B-Days are meant to celebrate the day you were born... I say it shows how long we've survived being out of the womb!!! Today marks another year of survival... Now how will I "mark" this year... hmmm... just wait and see I suppose... MUAH HA HA HA HA!!! Let's make a Wicked one!!! Wild Wicked WIshes for you this year!!! (^^^)
+++
Jan. 25/11 Inspiration in the Morning... 163

Jan. 31/ 11 Inspiration in the Morning... 167
