Progress pics on #AmericanRequiem mosaic violin project. Using red, white and blue glass, Scrabble tiles, metal beads and faux pearls to write βof the people, by the people, for the people around the outside edges.
What a shameful shit show in the Oval Office today. I am profoundly disgusted by our POS POTUS and VP.
An old, broken, stringless violin rests on some sketches and ideas for a mosaic project.
My next mosaic project. This instrument of sweet, sad music wants me to voice something through it right now, as the powers-that-be do their best to burn the Constitution and kill democracy. Iβll post progress pics.
Working title: American Requiem

Seriously . . . What a song, beautifully written and performed. Although from 2016, just as relevant today. Goosebumps. youtu.be/hI8TCA3fJcs?...
3) The track and the rut aren't what's real. They are just what we've been conditioned to see. DESPITE APPEARANCES something new is ready to be born.
I'm ready to pull that zipper all the way back and open my eyes and heart wide. Join me?
2) Suddenly, I saw that track turn into a zipper and the zipper opened up on a glorious new reality - one that had been there all along, just beneath and just beyond our enculturated, indoctrinated, brainwashed, and self-induced hypnosis.
The feeling of it is this: 1) We've been slogging down a track in the bottom of a rut for a V E R Y long time. Nothing in sight but the vanishing point, way out ahead of lots and lots of more of the same. π
So, I had a vision a few weeks back and I made this SoulCollage(R) card to honor it. Read on in the comments for what it means to me πππ
What a beautiful idea to make a memory quilt! I hit the 20 year mark last May since the death of my son. Wish I'd had more of his things to be able to do something like this. His memories are forever quilted onto my heart, though. Wishing you peace on the journey of grieving your loss. π

The problem with living in a collective dream is the way everyone else's dreaming conflicts with our own. What a nightmare! Maybe we should get lucid and learn to dream together for peace.

"Trump's proposed appointments...combine narcissism, incompetence, corruption, sexual incontinence, personal vulnerability, dangerous convictions, and foreign influence...a decapitation strike: destroying the American government from the top, leaving the body politic to rot..."
βWhy didnβt I say no? Why didnβt so many of us? Because we so badly wanted to believe what Hitler told us: that the future would be better than our present.β

"The Fallen build fear up in their minds and make it more and more real. Then they end up creating the ideal circumstances to ensure that their fears come true. Fear makes the world smaller and love expands it. Fear separates you from the truth of who you are. And the truth of who you are is Love."π
