There are alot of things in this world I dont understand one of them
is the fact that even though the whole freaking world has cameras some
people still think they can get away with things without anyone knowing
it and it is sad because even if earthly people dont see HE always does
you are hiding from yourself when you hide from others set your self free and
be sure to give god the glory and praise and you will see how it makes you feel
because in the end HE is the only one that matters HIS judging is all WE
need to worry about but we mustnt worry about that because we are not supposed
to worry over ANYTHING because he is alwayds ten steps ahead of any problem we are
facing
just REPENT PRAY and ALL WILL BE REVEALED IN TIME!

ooo......Dont JUDGE
A BOOK FULL OF DEATH
I MUST CONFESS.... I WAS LOST IN THE PAGES OF THE FINAL CHAPTER OF YOUR BOOK.
THE ONE TITLED "ILL WAIT FOR YOU ALONE."
ON YOUR DEATH BED WE BEGGED TO THE SAINTS,ANGELS AND JESUS
I BARELY RECALL WHO TOOK YOU TO HEAVEN
I BELIEVE IT WAS A BRIGHT BLUE SHINING FACE THAT WAS SHIMMERING LIKE THE OCEAN ON
A CLEAR SUNNY DAY ..SPARKLING AND AMAZING!
SO ALONE I READ
AND SAT IN REGRET OF ALL THE THINGS IVE DONE AND SAID AND DIDNT DO AND DIDNT SAY
FOR ALL THAT IVE BLESSED AND ALL THAT IVE WRONGED I AM TRULY GREATFUL
NOTHING IS MORE FRUSTRATING
SOMETHINGS GOT TO GIVE
BODIES LIE WHILE THE FLATLINES ARE SHOWN ONE AFTER THE OTHER SEEMS LIKE EVERY MINUTE
THERE ARE ANGELS ON THE SIDELINES AWAITING THEIR MISSION
AND USING THEIR SUPERHIGHWAY OF DEATH TO RACE TO RESCUE US FROM THIS HELL WE CALL LIFE
NEVER FORGET WE ARE NEVER ALONE
SOMETIMES WE ARE DRIVEN BY HATE AND CONSUMED BY FEAR
SOMETIMES WE CAN BE SELFISH AND UNDESERVING OF THE HEROIC ACTS OF THE SAINTS
NOT ONE IS WORTHY OF GODS NURTURING CARE BUT THE GRACE MAKES IT POSSIBLE
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF PRAYER
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF THE LORD OUR SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST
AND JUST BECAUSE YOU DIDNT GET EVERYTHING YOU WANTED "THE SPOILED CHILD SYNDROME" DOES NOT
MEAN HE DOES NOT CARE OR YOU DID SOMETHING TO MAKE THE PRAYER WORK OR NOT WORK
IT IS...SIMPLY..... HIS WILL
WE SHOULD BE PRAYING FOR HIS WILL NOT OURS HE KNOWS ARE NEXT STEP HE KNOWS WHATS GOOD FOR US
HE MADE US TO OVERCOME THINGS TO GAIN STRENGTH TO HELP OTHERS. HE IS OUR FATHER AND HE KNOWS BEST.
THINK ABOUT IT IF YOU ARE A PARENT
YOU WOULD NOT STEER ANY OF YOUR KIDS WRONG...YOU JUST WOULDNT...AND WE HAVE THE BEST FATHER IN THE WORLD
READ HIS INSTRUCTIONS LISTEN AND OBEY HIM SOMETIMES WE GO ASTRAY HE KNOWS THIS HE MADE US IMPERFECT
THE CONSISTENCY OF LOVE IS WHAT IS IMPORTANT AND TO BE SURE EVERYONE ELSE KNOWS THAT HE LOVES US
THATS THE WHOLE REASON WE ARE HERE TO MAKE IT KNOWN THAT YOU WANT HIS WILL TO BE DONE
YOURE GIVING UP YOUR OWN POWER TRIP
HE MADE THE WORLD LET HIS WILL BE DONE BY YOUR FREE WILL ITS A CHOICE
OR JUST BE HARD HEADED LIKE THE SPOILED CHILD SYNDROME ITS UP TO YOU THE CHOICE IS YOURS I MADE MINE
AND ITS MUCH EASIER LESS STRESSFUL AND MORE REWARDING TO
LET GO
LET GOD
IF WE WOULD STOP ACTING LIKE NEANDERTHALS OR MONKEYS FIGHTING OVER PIECES OF THE GROUND THEN MAYBE
WE WOULD SEE THE REAL REASON WE ARE HERE
IT IS LOVE AND CARE ABOUT EACH OTHER PROVIDE(SOMEWHAT) FOR EACH
OTHER HELPING EACH OTHER THROUGH DIFFICULT TIMES WE ARE ALL FAMILY SO WE SHOULD ACT AS SUCH
ALL GLORY TO GOD WE ACTUALLY DO EVERYTHING THROUGH HIM SO WHEN SOMEONE THANKS YOU
YOU SHOULD SAY THANK GOD AND THEN MAYBE THEY WILL AND HE DESERVES ALOT OF THANKS
SO LETS SPREAD THE WORD BE THANKFUL NOT GREEDY WEALTHY NOT RICH AND
FATHER BLESSED US ALL WITH FREE WILL AND THIS IS WHAT WE CHOOSE I BELIEVE IF WE
LET GO &
LET GOD
THE WHOLE WORLD CAN BE SAVED FROM DESTRUCTION WE MUST REPENT AND GIVE HIM THE POWER AND THE GLORY
ANYTHING SAID IN JESUS NAME IS A PRAYER (TO ME)
HOW ANNOYING IS IT WHEN YOU KNOW YOUR KIDS SHOULD LISTEN TO YOU AND THEY DONT THAT MUST BE
HOW GOD FEELS TOWARD US SOMETIMES HE TRIES TO SHOW US HE TRIES TO GET US TO LISTEN BUT STILL
WE HAVE OUR OWN JUSTIFICATIONS AND REASONINGS AND FREE WILL THERE IS ONLY SO MUCH HE CAN DO
BECAUSE HE LETS US CHOOSE FREE WILL SO WE ALL JUST NEED TO TRY
TRY
PRAY
REPENT
SAVE THE WORLD
ONE PERSON AT A TIME
THESE WORDS ARE NOT MY OWN
THEY ARE COMING THROUGH ME I AM THE MESSENGER ONLY
WHY I HAVE BEEN CHOSEN GOD ONLY KNOWS HOWEVER I KNOW THAT WE ALL HAVE THE CAPABILITY I HAVE HAD THIS SINCE I WAS
YOUNG BUT UNTIL NOW DID NOT WANT TO ACCEPT IT SO FOR THAT I SAY PROPS JC FOR BEING PATIENT WITH ME AND SHOWING ME
COMPASSION AND UNDERSTANDING WHEN YOU COULD HAVE JUST SLAPPED ME LOL WHO LOVES YA? THATS RIGHT...I DO
PLEASE BE WITH ALL THE FAMILIES THAT ARE SICK, UNDER THE WEATHER, DEPRESSED, SAD, RELUCTANT, IMPATIENT, ETC....
YOU ALREADY KNOW OUR NEEDS AND WANTS BUT IT HELPS TO HAVE ALOT OF BEACONS SHINING FOR YOU AND GOING TO BAT WITH YOU
WE CAN LOOK AT IT AS THOUGH WHEN SOMEONE PRAYS FOR US LIKE THEY ARE OUR CHEERLEADERS, LAWYERS PRESENTING A CASE,
OR PARENTS LOOKING OUT FOR THE CHILDREN WHAT EVER MAKES IT MAKE SENSE IN YOUR HEAD REIDERATION IS NECESSARY FOR COMPREHENSION
DO UNTO OTHERS WHAT YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO TO YOU
WE MUST PRAY FOR THE CUSTOMERS THAT ARE IN OUR LIVES WE ARE ALL CUSTOMERS OF SOME KIND!!! IF WE RECIEVE A SERVICE
OR PRODUCT WE ARE CUSTOMERS IF SOMEONE RECIEVES A SERVICE OR PRODUCT FROM US THEY ARE THE CUSTOMER ITS A CIRCLE OF CUSTOMERS
I AM A CUSTOMER OF LOVE THROUGH ALOT OF PEOPLE AND VICA VERSA (MY MIND WORKS IN WEIRD LIL WAYS!!
I AM WHO I AM I DONT APOLOGIZE FOR IT IM PROUD OF ALL MY IMPERFECTIONS AND I DONT CARE WHO LIKES IT ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE ME!!!
ILL ALWAYS TREASURE YOUR FRIENDSHIP AND KINDNESS
WHEN I DREAM OF YOU ITS ALWAYS THE SAME WE ARE LED BY THE SHIMERING BRIGHT BLUE FACE WE ARE
AT A TABLE THERE IS FRUIT AND NUTS AND WHITE WICKER AND PASTURES AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE
YOU WERE THE CLOSEST ONE WHEN YOU LEFT A LITTLE PART OF ME WENT WITH YOU AND IM GLAD I HOPE
YOU ACCEPTED IT I HOPE YOU HOLD IT CLOSE I HOPE YOU TREASURE IT BECAUSE I WILL FOREVER
TREASURE YOU.
STRANGE HOW YOU NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH SOMEONE MEANS TO YOU UNTIL THEY ARE NOT HERE ANYMORE WHETHER
PASSED ON OR MOVED ETC.
STRANGE HOW YOU WERE THE CLOSEST YET I COULDNT BRING MYSELF TO GO TO YOUR FUNERAL EVEN
IF MONEY WAS NOT AN ISSUE WHICH IT WAS
I BARELY RECOGNIZED YOU THE BLOOD SUCKING PARASIDIC MUTANT THAT WE CALL CANCER TOOK YOU
INTO ITS STRANGLE HOLD DEATH GRIP AND WOULDNT LET GO YOU TRIED FOR AS LONG AS YOU COULD
YOU FOUGHT UNTIL THERE WAS NOT ANY STRENGTH IN YOU AT ALL AND THREE EXTERNAL BAGS LATER
YOU WERE A MEMORY BUT A GOOD ONE YOU WERE NOT PERFECT BUT YOU LOVED AND YOU HELPED EVERYONE
SO I KNOW HE HAS A VERY SPECIAL PLACE FOR YOU THERE. I STILL CANT BELIEVE YOUR GONE I KNOW YOUR STILL
LIVING YOUR LIFE AFTER DEATH AND I KNOW ONE SWEET DAY WE WILL BE REUNITED IN ALL HIS GLORY
IF I HAD ONE WORD TO DESCRIBE YOU IT WOULD BE
FAITHFUL
SOMEONE THAT INTENTIONALLY PUTS OTHERS IN A DIFFERNT MENTAL STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS
SLEEP ETC. THEN INTENTIONALLY LEADS THEM TO CONVERSATIONS THAT ARE NONE OF THEIR
BUSINESS IS A DECEITFUL PERSON INDEED (ITS A VIOLATION OF PERSONAL PRIVACY) TO ME
THESE PEOPLE NEED TAUGHT A LESSON THAT ONLY GOD CAN TEACH ....SO BE IT IN JESUS NAME!
PEOPLE THAT GO AROUND CAUSING TROUBLE AND TRYING TO MAKE THEIRSELVES LOOK GOOD
BY SAYING OR DOING SOMETHING TO OR ABOUT SOMEONE ELSE (ESPECIALLY AN EASY TARGET-
-KIND HEARTED PEOPLE)
NEED TAUGHT A LESSON THAT ONLY GOD CAN TEACH .......SO BE IT IN JESUS NAME!
CHILDREN THAT DO THESE THINGS ARE LEARNING SO TRY NOT TO BE TOO HARD ON THEM BECAUSE YOU
WERE YOUNG ONCE TO AND YOU (WE) WERE ALL MEAN AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER.
WHY CANT WE ALL JUST LIVE IN HARMONY AND PEACE DONT WE REALIZE THAT WE CAN MAKE THIS
A BETTER PLACE ...IF WE TRY ...TOGETHER....I AM JUST A DREAMER DREAMING THATS WHAT I DO
WHAT SUCKS ALOT IS THAT SOME OF US THINK ALL OF THIS IS BEYOND OUR CONTROL ....IT ISNT
DEAN
THANK YOU FIR ALL YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME. I APPRECIATE IT. IF YOU WOULD JUST NOT BE
TEMPERMENTAL I THINK WE COULD MAKE IT. POSSIBLY EVEN GO TO PA. IF YOU ARE UP TO IT.
I BRAG ABOUT YOU ALOT. BUT YOU CAN ONLY GET OUT OF IT WHAT YOU PUT INTO IT. SO HERE
I SIT WITH A PILE OF NEVERENDING BILLS. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO GIVE YOU THE FINER THINGS IN LIFE
WHICH YOU DESERVE. I GUESS IF YOU CAN WAIT WHEN I DO GET ON MY FEET NOTHING IS TO GOOD FOR
YOU. YOU WERE ALWAYS THERE FOR ME AND I WANT TO BE THERE FOR YOU. IF I TAKE CARE OF YOU THEN
YOU WILL TAKE CARE OF ME. YOU HAVE A PERSONALITY THAT IS UNMATCHED BY ANY OTHER.
I CAN NEVER REPLACE YOU. I AM GOING TO TREAT YOU THE WAY YOU SHOULD BE TREATED BUT WE
HAVE TO BE PATIENT WHICH YOU HAVE BEEN AND I HAVE NOT ESPECIALLY WITH YOU.
THERE ARE DAYS WHEN I AM AMAZED THAT YOU ARE STILL HERE I THINK YOU HAVE AN ILLNESS
THAT I COULD FIX WITH MONEY. I THINK YOUR SMART. I THINK I WANT TO keep YOU.
GINA
I WONDER IF THERE ARE THE OTHERS WITHIN THE VEIL THAT GET PUZZLED AND AMUSED AT OUR
EVERYDAY LIFE FOR ALL WE KNOW WE COULD BE THEIR SOAP OPERAS YOU NEVER KNOW BUT IT IS FUN TO
GUESS AND YES MY LIL OL MIND WORKS IN WEIRD WAYS.
SO BE THE STAR IN YOUR OWN SOAP OPERA AND CREATE THE PERSON THAT OTHERS SEE AND YOU WANT TO
BE BECAUSE YOU ARE IN CONTROL OF THAT YOU ARE IN CONTROL OF YOUR ACTIONS REACTIONS THOUGHT
S WISHES AND ALL OTHER ASPECTS THERE IS NOT VERY STRICT GUIDELINES TO OUR LIVES WE CAN
HAVE ALOT OF DEFFERENT VARIATIONS IN IT AND WE CHANGE EVERYDAY. WE CAN FALLIN LOVE DAILY
WITH OURSELVES OR OTHERS WE JUST HAVE TO PERMIT OURSELVES TO DO THIS AND I JOKINGLY SAY IM
MARRIED TO GOD BUT ARENT WE ALL A LITTLE HE IS SUPPOSED TO COME BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE SO HES
ABOVE ALL IF THERE WERE A STRONGER WORD THAN MARRIAGE THEN THAT IS WHAT IT WOULD BE ...TO ME
I TRY TO CONSULT HIM AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE,IM STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS
I TRY TO FIND BEAUTY IN NATURE BECAUSE THAT IS EVERCHANGING AND SOME OF THE THINGS IN
NATURE HAVE SEEN BIBLICAL DAYS SO WE NEED TO PRESERVE IT SOME LIVE LIKE THERES NO
TOMORROW IN SOME CASES THIS IS GOOD OTHERS NOT SO MUCH
WHEN IT COMES TO LITTERING THIS IS BAD
UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR GRANDKIDS TO DRINK CONTAMINATED WATER WE NEED CLEAN WATER
HAVE YOU EVER WATCHED THE SHOW IDIOCRACY IF NOT YOU SHOULD...
ALL LITTLE BRATS ARE ANGELS
WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER MAYBE WE SHOULD ACT AS SUCH
gina
YOU have the power of self-sufficiency.
Sometimes people-no matter how much they love you
-can't help as much as you can help YOURSELF
Do not resent them for this. There are certain places we
must travel alone. However;the ability to lift
your own spirits is a skill that is exhilerating.
Write your worry, fear, stress, sadness and anger down on paper.
Getting these negative thoughts out of YOUR head is the first step TO PERSERVERENCE
RECOGNIZE your own kick-ass COMPLIMENTS THAT YOU HAVE for you.
All you really have to do is say the opposite of what your negative thoughts tell
you BY THE WAY THIS IS JUST A DARK ENTITY BULLY! if you don't think you can do something
look yourself right in the mirror(sober)
and tell yourself that you CAN and WILL. it will not happen the first time.
But anyone that knows ME knows i believe reideration is necessary for comprehension
even in the id or subconscience mind.
Look in the mirror and repeat what you WANT to be -- out loud.
If you repeat it ten times YOU will start to believe it and then so will others
and then it becomes part of YOU
your thoughts and actions WILL follow your words and become reality. Remember
I always say IT is YOUR damn boat here in life ROW it YOUR way talk like a coach.
Strategy is everything Make it happen. Tell yourself how you're going to win this
game of life. Pump yourself up daily in the mirror. this might sound crazy but it WORKS!!!
Do all those things for yourself DAILY and you will be the person you want to be.
If its alot you want to change or a litlle all you have to do is say over and over
I'm number one! I'm number one." It works I am proof of this.
I used to have self esteem problems.
Believe all of this you say to yourself. You are capable beyond your own comprehension.
The brain is a mighty tool USE IT

well DAMN happy 2011 to YOU
"Coexist has been involved in a range of inspiring, exciting and transformational projects that promote better
understanding between faith communities through education, dialogue and research.
* Coexist drives and supports education and initiatives we hope will capture the public imagination
* Coexist promotes dialogue and reconciliation between groups in conflict with one another
* Coexist encourages research which furthers the relations between Jews, Christians and Muslims, and between these
faiths and others."
"Repression is not the way to virtue. When people restrain themselves out of fear, their lives are by necessity diminished.
Only through freely chosen discipline can life be enjoyed and still kept within the bounds of reason.” This is probably a
reason why many New Year’s resolutions never come true. It is easy said than done.
However, I am in love with the notion of flow. It is defined as “a state of concentration or complete absorption with the
activity at hand and the situation. The idea of flow is identical to the feeling of being in the zone or in the groove.
This is a feeling everyone has at times, characterized by a feeling of great absorption, engagement, fulfillment, and
skill—and during which temporal concerns (time, food, ego-self, etc.) are typically ignored. A flow is completely
focused motivation…It is a single-minded immersion and represents perhaps the ultimate in harnessing the emotions
in the service of performing and learning. In flow the emotions are not just contained and channeled, but positive,
energized, and aligned with the task at hand. To be caught in a depression or the agitation of anxiety is to be barred
from flow. The hallmark of flow is a feeling of spontaneous joy, even rapture, while performing a task. ”
This sense of complete peace of mind in our everyday lives is challenging. However, once you get the feeling it is amazing.
Sports used to give me that “in the zone” feeling. As a teen, drawing and writing “dark poetry” defined pure flow.
Mathematics also was all about the flow. You must completely concentrate and be motivated to get it. Hobbies lead
to the “in the zone” bliss. Of course, spirituality and meditation offer the flow state.
Such flow is beyond blissful contentment or fulfillment. It cannot be programmed, forced or given. It just happens
anytime and anywhere. Today, I am navigating through life adjusting my pace. My flow is within my soul. And I can
feel it. I guess that the flow state is a gift of being in the present. The flow state is to live alive. It requires
confidence, focus and balance. Even our global community is in flow of Oneness, one family, one Earth.
Let’s feel the flow. My last Happy 2011 to you!!!

Once a man has made a commitment to a way of life, he puts the greatest strength in the world behind him.
It's something we call heart power. Once a man has made this commitment, nothing will stop him short of success.

If i had one prayer to pray for all the people that I loved/love
It would be for them to be happy and find someone that accepts them for the way they want to be.
I do not want them to try to change them or have them have a circumstantial love or a conditioned
love that is not really love. There are alot of people that this prayer goes out to but especially
the fathers. Because they are doing the best they can with what they were taught or what they remember learning.
John , Daniel, I wish for you to have the best relationship and for you to find what YOU want not what others want you to be.
Joe, I hope you find what YOU want in life.
Dave, I hope you find peace.
Scott, I hope you find JOY.
Ken, I hope you find tranquility.
My kids Sara, Davey, Daniel I hope you find someone to love you for YOU because in my eyes you are perfect the way you
are we are never going to be perfect but your damn close...to ME. A mothers love is unconditional and you should find
that and then some in a relationship but please dont look for that too soon we all grow in defferent directions at
different stages and its hard to match up with someone before you realize that your wants and needs change over time
we are never the same person year after year we CAN find our life partner at a young age but rarely because you have
to grow together and if you dont you grow apart So stay true to you and be YOU no one else can ever be that we are
unique masterpieces of GOD. Do not be in a hurry have fun and be careful.I love you all.

some people
even if they are in love should not be together because they are no good...
together ............................................................................................................
they lose their self and when that happens
its time to move on we still have to remain individuals EVEN IF we ARE with someone
if you can not do that maybe you should move on
if all of your personality can not be revealed then its not worth it and if they make you feel uncomfortable ir irritable
in any way for an extended period of time they are not for you and if they criticize you for being you
and if you feel like you can not leave them alone for a second(they may not even be doing anything ) it could be you then
that's not trust and you have to have trust to have love so if these are the case save yourself alot of aggravation and
years and RUN plenty of fish in the sea

my parents are amazing
Within a two year time span my mom & dad lost four people that they loved very much.
1. Her baby sister (my beautiful Aunt Niece taken unexpectedly at age 43 by cancer) in July 2004.
2. Her mother (my wonderful grandmother) passed on 9/11/06.
3. Her stepfather (my wonderful pap pap) passed on 9/28/06.
(with in two weeks of each other)
4. His wonderful mother (passed on late 2005)
They cleaned, cooked, nursed, and drove them all to appointments.
My dad’s dad died in a car crash when my dad was two. (he was only thirty-two years old ) Dad was one of five children
in the home at the time.
He enlisted in the Army at age 17. He served in Vietnam 1968-1972. He has residual effects from the Agent Orange including
diabetes. He has had amputations on both feet. He is having another operation in January. (he has had several) He will be
in the hospital at least a week afterward and bedridden for about six months at home. They will be putting a cage around
his foot to put the toes back in the joints. He jokes and says (what? ….I have five toes!) We say yes, but you have to put
both feet together) They do not let anything get them down.
He got in a wreck in the mid eighties. He was trapped in the car for twenty plus hours, around a tree and over a cliff.
I am still amazed they found him. He had (broken pelvis, collar bone, arm, leg etc). He actually had dirt and tree bark
and blood in his teeth when we arrived at the hospital. Mom took care of dad through the car accident. He is still disabled.
My mother never knew her father either. He and my grandmother divorced when my mother was three or four years old.
She was the oldest of four in the house. I guess that is why she has the best maternal instincts.My mother needs
surgery on her leg. She can not get it due to lack of insurance. She (as well as most of my family, myself included)
has a lot of health problems. She insists on taking care of other people instead of worrying about herself. She has
always been this way.
I moved 300 miles away after high school to N.C. The existing surroundings were not very prosperous.
I can not visit very much. I drive there it is much easier now that the kids are older. It takes about eight hours to get
there. I usually only stay one day, because I have to get back for work. The trip itself is 8 hours and you stay 12-24
hours and drive back 8 hours it is a lot like work, being a referee as well, the whole way. L.O.L.My children have stability
(just as I did) they have been here their whole life moving to help them more isn\'t a practical or realistic possibility
right now. She fixes a huge meal every-time we visit.Mom does not mind last minute notices of my visits.
They always go above and beyond what really nice people would do. They do so much people without regard to themselves at all.
My two brothers and I always had what we needed clothes, shoes, love, attention, food, as well as most of what we wanted.
They never bought themselves anything. They both honestly sacrificed for our happiness.They are also wonderful grandparents.
They have seven grandchildren (three of those are mine).They give them the world as well.
They do not think it is a big deal they think all parents should be like this. Some parents really do not care.
This just comes natural to them. This is who they are, all the time, to everyone, always was, and always will be.
They have huge hearts, and they would give the shirt off of their back.Neither one of my parents have ever had much money
and they appreciate the things that they do have.
They are proud people and would never ask for anything for themselves. As a matter a fact, they would probably be pissed
if they knew I was writing this. They always say they’re doing fine. But they are not very well at all.
They deserve a better life. They can’t work. My dad is on a fixed income (disability) and my mother isn’t, but, needs to
be. After reading this far you know that they are not going to say or ask for anything.
I know they have to be just scraping by. There always seems to be a roadblock in the way of them ever getting ahead, or
even caught up. For example they got their porch “fixed” and a local company butchered that job. It is noticeably uneven.
They may still be paying for that, I am not sure.
The house that they have lived in for thirty + years is falling apart (literally)(probably built hundreds of years ago).
The ceilings are sagging, wiring is old and their electric bill is insane! The floors are very weak, in some spots you
can actually see through it.
My dream for them is a single level house (nearby, or on their property). I would make sure that the bathroom was
accessible for handicap complete with a lot of safety bars. I would get them a computer. That way when I get a computer
and get online we can keep in touch more, web cam so we could see each other more often. Plus with them being confined
to the house for 6 months it will help with boredom. I hope someone hears this cry for help. Their situation is not going
to get any better.
If I could I would give them the surprise of their life.
This is not the first time I have tried to get help for them. I was about 14 I contacted a millionaire Percy Ross
several times. (that used to be in the local paper giving out money) I asked him for an oil furnace but I did not
get a response.
They finally got an oil furnace last year. We always had a coal stove. There are steps to it, it is a very dusty heat
(mom’s the cleanest person I know) so as a result she was always on her feet. I am so thankful they only need to move
a dial now to keep warm.
Please help me show my parents how much the world needs more people like them. Just as they never give up, or turn
anyone away, the world has not given up or turned them away. You always hear about the bad people in life. Well
here are two extremely good ones that deserve some rest, relaxation, and worry free times.
I am contacting you in hopes that some one could help. I just want my parents to have some of the joy that they
give others. I can not stand to see two people, that are so loving and giving, go through all of this and not try
to get someone to help. Please help me give them something, anything.
Thank you,
Gina (Raymond) Setzer

The mind is a terrible thing to waste!!!! USE IT
YOU have the power of self-sufficiency.
Sometimes people-no matter how much they love you
-can't help you as much as you can help YOURSELF
Do not resent them for this. There are certain places we
must travel alone. However;the ability to lift
your own spirits is a skill that is exhilerating.
Write your worry, fear, stress, sadness and anger down on paper.
Getting these negative thoughts out of YOUR head is the first step TO PERSERVERENCE
RECOGNIZE your own kick-ass COMPLIMENTS THAT YOU HAVE for you.
All you really have to do is say the opposite of what your negative thoughts tell you or ARE! We can change anything
if we try.
if you don't think you can do something look yourself right in the mirror(sober)
and tell yourself that you CAN and WILL do whatever it is you think you cant. it will not happen the first time.
But anyone that knows ME knows i believe reideration is necessary for comprehension
even in the id or subconscience mind.
Look in the mirror and repeat what you WANT to be -or change about you - out loud.
If you repeat it ten times YOU will start to believe it and then so will others
and then it becomes part of YOU
your thoughts and actions WILL follow your words and become reality. Remember
I always say IT is YOUR damn boat here in life ROW it YOUR way talk like a coach to you. we are here on Earth
(which if you know ME you know i belive it is the HARVARD OF THE UNIVERSE SO YOU CAN DO THIS I PROMISE AND I
NEVER PROMISE!!!!!!
Strategy is everything Make it happen. Tell yourself how you're going to win this game of life. Pump yourself
up daily in the mirror. this might sound crazy but it WORKS!!!
Do all those things for yourself DAILY and you will be the person you want to be.
If its alot you want to change or a litlle all you have to do is say over and over
I'm number one! I'm number one. It works I am proof of this.
I used to have self esteem problems.
Believe all of this you say to yourself. You are capable beyond your own comprehension.
The brain is a mighty tool USE IT

A thousand light years away
Sometimes our minds are everywhere at once worrying (which is a total waste of time) but i think we all do it no matter
how faithful we are to HIM
but there is so much to think about and so many different areas we can improve in and so many ways to improve and help
others in the process i have found that if we do the best at everything we put an effort in how can we go wrong so focus
ficus i tell myself and i focus in on the most that i can that day and figure out the rest later
my goal is to be a better person for mankind and spread love and joy throughout the world so that the children will have
an awesome world to look forward to and to reside in with their children
just IMAGINE a world that is peaceful and full of harmony i really think its within our reach if we all try really hard
maybe im a dreamer
but im not the only ONE
props john lennon
we miss you and your outlook on life

Life the best it can be
*for a brighter day add the strength to push the clouds easy
*never forget a true friend should listen with an empathetic ear as if they were in your shoes
*life is not easy for anyone and if you think it is you are too self involved
*never forget to be good to yourself when nobody else will
*some children only know abuse( from friends relatives)so we all must serve as gods children and treat others
as we want to be treated.
*life is a journey always welcome the new day with open arms
*realize we all are just human kids and adults are going to screw up maybe even daily just repent and all is
well he died for us...remember?
*be a friend a friend would like to have
*most kids imitate their surroundings
*all possibilities are seedling in your mind its up to YOU to water them
*peace and harmony is a CHOICE
*the greatest love is the single most true song i know
this is dedicated to ALL parents who try to give their children roots like trees and wings like planes as mine
so admirably did
so on this day MOM and DAD i thank you for all the wisdom and pearls you gave me
Dedicated to Barbara J Dawson- Raymond & Gerald W Raymond
with all the love i can express you are and always have had my best interest in your heart and for that I THANK
YOU TWO!!!!!!!!

Realize that the honest deserves honesty
then if they say they can handle it give it to them
I myself can and want COMPLETE honesty in a relationship of ANY KIND
no reason to LIE about anything to me

Realize that
Realize that all people no matter how good the intentions gives bad advice at one time or another listen to

Help me also remember
That cigarettes are a slow suicide
That any soul in your house is your responsibility and you are theirs
Thant some people are dangerously curious
That everyone has an inner demon ...dont push to uncover it in me or anyone this is not healthy
That My family is spiritually connected to Jack Black (LOL) somewhere in school of rock I realized this
That no matter the disorder Life must go on
That no one is perfect so dont expect me to be

One may NEVER know
I may never know the reason of the trials tribulations and circumstances that arose over the last five years or so but
i am learning slowly but surely
i realize some people are put here to learn from and some to mimic and some to do the exact opposite we need to realize
which is which that can be difficult at times but if you pray and listen you will know just another tidbit of the messy
files in my cranium!
Some day i will organize them all and delete others and add to some but for now the dump is where its at (TO ME)

John Helton: where am i at in this mess of files, or am i even in there any more...
.i thank you Gina for everything you done for and with me , i might not be the best at showing my feelings,
but i`m sure you knew i was there, and cared for you , and still do , but some people are just not good enough,,
,,and i`ve not been good enough for a long time now, so after awhile you get tired of tring to be good enough,
and i`m sorry! if you need me i`ll be here,and if you don`t i`ll still be here.you know if you don`t want nothing
else to do with me all you have to do is say your done, and i wont cross your door step anymore.you know i was
going to try and do better, but you didn`t give me a chance to prove myself, which i guess you gave me plenty of
chances, to little to late i guess, and i`m sorry for that.so i guess your right "ONE WILL NEVER KNOW "well take
care and i hope you find who and what your looking for out of this thing we all think is life.

Just do not LIE
None of us are perfect........so the next time you cast a stone maybe you should think and acknowledge that you are NOT
perfect EITHER
BE very careful that the words that roll off of your lips are the truth or suffer the consequences of THAT lie if someone
has gone out of their way for you and did nothing to wrong you and still you cast lies then SHAME is upon YOU

sometimes I wonder
about things I should not wonder or ponder over because all has reason and rhyme all things come and are revealed in time
All things that can be wondered are wonderful!
what do you wonder? what do you wonder for?
why is the sky blue? Why do I wear a size ten shoe? Why do you sit and stew when there is no more you can do? Why?
Why ask why?
LET GO

well DAMN happy 2011 to YOU
"Coexist has been involved in a range of inspiring, exciting and transformational projects that promote better
understanding between faith communities through education, dialogue and research.
* Coexist drives and supports education and initiatives we hope will capture the public imagination
* Coexist promotes dialogue and reconciliation between groups in conflict with one another
* Coexist encourages research which furthers the relations between Jews, Christians and Muslims, and between these

"Repression is not the way to virtue. When people restrain themselves out of fear, their lives are by necessity diminished.
Only through freely chosen discipline can life be enjoyed and still kept within the bounds of reason.” This is probably a
reason why many New Year’s resolutions never come true. It is easy said than done.
However, I am in love with the notion of flow. It is defined as “a state of concentration or complete absorption with the
activity at hand and the situation. The idea of flow is identical to the feeling of being in the zone or in the groove.
This is a feeling everyone has at times, characterized by a feeling of great absorption, engagement, fulfillment, and
skill—and during which temporal concerns (time, food, ego-self, etc.) are typically ignored. A flow is completely
focused motivation…It is a single-minded immersion and represents perhaps the ultimate in harnessing the emotions
in the service of performing and learning. In flow the emotions are not just contained and channeled, but positive,
energized, and aligned with the task at hand. To be caught in a depression or the agitation of anxiety is to be barred
from flow. The hallmark of flow is a feeling of spontaneous joy, even rapture, while performing a task. ”
This sense of complete peace of mind in our everyday lives is challenging. However, once you get the feeling it is amazing.
Sports used to give me that “in the zone” feeling. As a teen, drawing and writing “dark poetry” defined pure flow.
Mathematics also was all about the flow. You must completely concentrate and be motivated to get it. Hobbies lead
to the “in the zone” bliss. Of course, spirituality and meditation offer the flow state.
Such flow is beyond blissful contentment or fulfillment. It cannot be programmed, forced or given. It just happens
anytime and anywhere. Today, I am navigating through life adjusting my pace. My flow is within my soul. And I can
feel it. I guess that the flow state is a gift of being in the present. The flow state is to live alive. It requires
confidence, focus and balance. Even our global community is in flow of Oneness, one family, one Earth.
Let’s feel the flow. My last Happy 2011 to you!!!

man
Once a man has made a commitment to a way of life, he puts the greatest strength in the world behind him.
It's something we call heart power. Once a man has made this commitment, nothing will stop him short of success.

If i had one prayer to pray for all the people that I loved/love
It would be for them to be happy and find someone that accepts them for the way they want to be.
I do not want them to try to change them or have them have a circumstantial love or a conditioned
love that is not really love. There are alot of people that this prayer goes out to but especially
the fathers. Because they are doing the best they can with what they were taught or what they remember learning.
John , Daniel, I wish for you to have the best relationship and for you to find what YOU want not what others want you to be.
Joe, I hope you find what YOU want in life.
Dave, I hope you find peace.
Scott, I hope you find JOY.
Ken, I hope you find tranquility.
My kids Sara, Davey, Daniel I hope you find someone to love you for YOU because in my eyes you are perfect the way you
are we are never going to be perfect but your damn close...to ME. A mothers love is unconditional and you should find
that and then some in a relationship but please dont look for that too soon we all grow in defferent directions at
different stages and its hard to match up with someone before you realize that your wants and needs change over time
we are never the same person year after year we CAN find our life partner at a young age but rarely because you have
to grow together and if you dont you grow apart So stay true to you and be YOU no one else can ever be that we are
unique masterpieces of GOD. Do not be in a hurry have fun and be careful.I love you all.

some people
even if they are in love should not be together because they are no good...
together ............................................................................................................
they lose their self and when that happens
its time to move on we still have to remain individuals EVEN IF we ARE with someone
if you can not do that maybe you should move on
if all of your personality can not be revealed then its not worth it and if they make you feel uncomfortable ir irritable
in any way for an extended period of time they are not for you and if they criticize you for being you
and if you feel like you can not leave them alone for a second(they may not even be doing anything ) it could be you then
that's not trust and you have to have trust to have love so if these are the case save yourself alot of aggravation and
years and RUN plenty of fish in the sea

my parents are amazing
Within a two year time span my mom & dad lost four people that they loved very much.
1. Her baby sister (my beautiful Aunt Niece taken unexpectedly at age 43 by cancer) in July 2004.
2. Her mother (my wonderful grandmother) passed on 9/11/06.
3. Her stepfather (my wonderful pap pap) passed on 9/28/06.
(with in two weeks of each other)
4. His wonderful mother (passed on late 2005)
They cleaned, cooked, nursed, and drove them all to appointments.
My dad’s dad died in a car crash when my dad was two. (he was only thirty-two years old ) Dad was one of five children
in the home at the time.
He enlisted in the Army at age 17. He served in Vietnam 1968-1972. He has residual effects from the Agent Orange including
diabetes. He has had amputations on both feet. He is having another operation in January. (he has had several) He will be
in the hospital at least a week afterward and bedridden for about six months at home. They will be putting a cage around
his foot to put the toes back in the joints. He jokes and says (what? ….I have five toes!) We say yes, but you have to put
both feet together) They do not let anything get them down.
He got in a wreck in the mid eighties. He was trapped in the car for twenty plus hours, around a tree and over a cliff.
I am still amazed they found him. He had (broken pelvis, collar bone, arm, leg etc). He actually had dirt and tree bark
and blood in his teeth when we arrived at the hospital. Mom took care of dad through the car accident. He is still disabled.
My mother never knew her father either. He and my grandmother divorced when my mother was three or four years old.
She was the oldest of four in the house. I guess that is why she has the best maternal instincts.My mother needs
surgery on her leg. She can not get it due to lack of insurance. She (as well as most of my family, myself included)
has a lot of health problems. She insists on taking care of other people instead of worrying about herself. She has
always been this way.
I moved 300 miles away after high school to N.C. The existing surroundings were not very prosperous.
I can not visit very much. I drive there it is much easier now that the kids are older. It takes about eight hours to get
there. I usually only stay one day, because I have to get back for work. The trip itself is 8 hours and you stay 12-24
hours and drive back 8 hours it is a lot like work, being a referee as well, the whole way. L.O.L.My children have stability
(just as I did) they have been here their whole life moving to help them more isn\'t a practical or realistic possibility
right now. She fixes a huge meal every-time we visit.Mom does not mind last minute notices of my visits.
They always go above and beyond what really nice people would do. They do so much people without regard to themselves at all.
My two brothers and I always had what we needed clothes, shoes, love, attention, food, as well as most of what we wanted.
They never bought themselves anything. They both honestly sacrificed for our happiness.They are also wonderful grandparents.
They have seven grandchildren (three of those are mine).They give them the world as well.
They do not think it is a big deal they think all parents should be like this. Some parents really do not care.
This just comes natural to them. This is who they are, all the time, to everyone, always was, and always will be.
They have huge hearts, and they would give the shirt off of their back.Neither one of my parents have ever had much money
and they appreciate the things that they do have.
They are proud people and would never ask for anything for themselves. As a matter a fact, they would probably be pissed
if they knew I was writing this. They always say they’re doing fine. But they are not very well at all.
They deserve a better life. They can’t work. My dad is on a fixed income (disability) and my mother isn’t, but, needs to
be. After reading this far you know that they are not going to say or ask for anything.
I know they have to be just scraping by. There always seems to be a roadblock in the way of them ever getting ahead, or
even caught up. For example they got their porch “fixed” and a local company butchered that job. It is noticeably uneven.
They may still be paying for that, I am not sure.
The house that they have lived in for thirty + years is falling apart (literally)(probably built hundreds of years ago).
The ceilings are sagging, wiring is old and their electric bill is insane! The floors are very weak, in some spots you
can actually see through it.
My dream for them is a single level house (nearby, or on their property). I would make sure that the bathroom was
accessible for handicap complete with a lot of safety bars. I would get them a computer. That way when I get a computer
and get online we can keep in touch more, web cam so we could see each other more often. Plus with them being confined
to the house for 6 months it will help with boredom. I hope someone hears this cry for help. Their situation is not going
to get any better.
If I could I would give them the surprise of their life.
This is not the first time I have tried to get help for them. I was about 14 I contacted a millionaire Percy Ross
several times. (that used to be in the local paper giving out money) I asked him for an oil furnace but I did not
get a response.
They finally got an oil furnace last year. We always had a coal stove. There are steps to it, it is a very dusty heat
(mom’s the cleanest person I know) so as a result she was always on her feet. I am so thankful they only need to move
a dial now to keep warm.
Please help me show my parents how much the world needs more people like them. Just as they never give up, or turn
anyone away, the world has not given up or turned them away. You always hear about the bad people in life. Well
here are two extremely good ones that deserve some rest, relaxation, and worry free times.
I am contacting you in hopes that some one could help. I just want my parents to have some of the joy that they
give others. I can not stand to see two people, that are so loving and giving, go through all of this and not try
to get someone to help. Please help me give them something, anything.
Thank you,
Gina (Raymond) Setzer

I forgot that i wrote it on a help website , thought id share ENJOY

The mind is a terrible thing to waste!!!! USE IT
YOU have the power of self-sufficiency.
Sometimes people-no matter how much they love you
-can't help you as much as you can help YOURSELF
Do not resent them for this. There are certain places we
must travel alone. However;the ability to lift
your own spirits is a skill that is exhilerating.
Write your worry, fear, stress, sadness and anger down on paper.
Getting these negative thoughts out of YOUR head is the first step TO PERSERVERENCE
RECOGNIZE your own kick-ass COMPLIMENTS THAT YOU HAVE for you.
All you really have to do is say the opposite of what your negative thoughts tell you or ARE! We can change anything
if we try.
if you don't think you can do something look yourself right in the mirror(sober)
and tell yourself that you CAN and WILL do whatever it is you think you cant. it will not happen the first time.
But anyone that knows ME knows i believe reideration is necessary for comprehension
even in the id or subconscience mind.
Look in the mirror and repeat what you WANT to be -or change about you - out loud.
If you repeat it ten times YOU will start to believe it and then so will others
and then it becomes part of YOU
your thoughts and actions WILL follow your words and become reality. Remember
I always say IT is YOUR damn boat here in life ROW it YOUR way talk like a coach to you. we are here on Earth
(which if you know ME you know i belive it is the HARVARD OF THE UNIVERSE SO YOU CAN DO THIS I PROMISE AND I
NEVER PROMISE!!!!!!
Strategy is everything Make it happen. Tell yourself how you're going to win this game of life. Pump yourself
up daily in the mirror. this might sound crazy but it WORKS!!!
Do all those things for yourself DAILY and you will be the person you want to be.
If its alot you want to change or a litlle all you have to do is say over and over
I'm number one! I'm number one. It works I am proof of this.
I used to have self esteem problems.
Believe all of this you say to yourself. You are capable beyond your own comprehension.
The brain is a mighty tool USE IT

A thousand light years away
Sometimes our minds are everywhere at once worrying (which is a total waste of time) but i think we all do it no matter
how faithful we are to HIM
but there is so much to think about and so many different areas we can improve in and so many ways to improve and help
others in the process i have found that if we do the best at everything we put an effort in how can we go wrong so focus
ficus i tell myself and i focus in on the most that i can that day and figure out the rest later
my goal is to be a better person for mankind and spread love and joy throughout the world so that the children will have
an awesome world to look forward to and to reside in with their children
just IMAGINE a world that is peaceful and full of harmony i really think its within our reach if we all try really hard

One may NEVER know
I may never know the reason of the trials tribulations and circumstances that arose over the last five years or so but
i am learning slowly but surely
i realize some people are put here to learn from and some to mimic and some to do the exact opposite we need to realize
which is which that can be difficult at times but if you pray and listen you will know just another tidbit of the messy
files in my cranium!
Some day i will organize them all and delete others and add to some but for now the dump is where its at (TO ME)

Gina' s Story
This is a story about a snail and a Teddy Bear that meet in an internet setting through a forest of imagination and they are looking for each other but do not even know it and they fall in love over a chat site called "SPACEBOOK" ( an ori GINA l word made up by me as far as i know) so they meet and some very amazing things start to happen and then when they actually SEE each other they are VERY attracted to each other and they live happily ever after but there is a lot more to the story this is just a tease and i was going to transfer files that i had on another computer these stories were already written but i lost them all when i restored it so it may take longer than once thought but eventually
anyway this is going to be awesome
This story is dedicated to all the young imaginative readers that are hanging on every readers word with enthusiasm and wonder like my good friend Allison!

Mark Twain
* Born: 30 November 1835
* Birthplace: Florida, Missouri
* Died: 21 April 1910 (heart failure)
* Best Known As: The author of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn
Name at birth: Samuel Langhorne Clemens
Mark Twain is on nearly everyone's list of all-time great American authors. Twain was raised in Hannibal, Missouri and as a young man held a series of jobs which included work as a printer's apprentice, a Mississippi riverboat pilot, and a newspaperman in Nevada and San Francisco. He moved gradually from journalism to travel writing and then to fiction, aided by the success of his 1869 travel memoir The Innocents Abroad. His humorous tales of human nature, especially The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and Huckleberry Finn (1885), remain standard texts in high school and college literature classes. In his own day Twain was a tremendously popular figure and a celebrated public speaker who toured widely. Other Twain classics include Life on the Mississippi (1883) and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889) and the short story The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County (1867).
Twain was born and died in years in which Halley's Comet passed by Earth: 1835 and 1910... His pseudonym, Mark Twain, was taken from Mississippi riverboat terminology; it's a measure of depth... Twain married the former Olivia Langdon in 1870; she died in 1904, and the melancholy tone of Twain's later writings is often attributed to his depression over her death.
How did Mark Twain get his name?
Samuel Clemens changed his name to Mark Twain because of his experiences of being on a riverboat. The captain of the riverboat yelled out "Mark twain!" which meant to check the water level beneath...
Did mark twain or Mark Twain's family have slaves?
No, in fact, Mark Twain's wife was an abolitionist.
Mark Twain was a?
Mark Twain was a writer (he wrote Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn).
Why did Samuel Clemens use the pen name Mark Twain?
Mark twain is a term used in steam boat piloting. It means the water is 13 Mark Twain's dream job was to be a pilot of a steam boat so he used the term as his pen name. He got famous after he used it...
Name a Mark Twain novel?
His most famous would be "The adventures of Tom Sawyer"There is also huckleberryfin

wikipedia
Leonardo da Vinci is famous for having written most of his personal notes in mirror, only using standard writing if he intended his texts to be read by others. There are two popular theories on why he did this. Leonardo da Vinci was left-handed, causing the ink to smudge easily if he wrote in standard writing. He may also have wanted to protect his ideas from theft or hide them from the Roman Catholic Church (with whom his research practices sometimes collided). However, the latter idea, popular among conspiracy theorists, is highly unlikely: it is (and was even at the time) clear, even to a child, that the text in question could be easily read "backwards" (either directly or through its reflection, such as in a mirror). The true purpose of this practice thus remains unknown. A third theory is that he taught himself to write: given the propensity of children to start writing from the bottom right hand corner of a page[citation needed], this would have led him to produce mirror writing.
Wikipedia in Leonardo's style.
Matteo Zaccolini apparently wrote in mirror script his original four volume treatise on optics, color, and perspective in the early 1600s; he was apparently dependent on Leonardo's text.
Mirror writing calligraphy was popular in the Ottoman Empire during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries among the Bektashi order, where it often carried mystical associations.[3] The origins of this mirror writing tradition may date to the pre-Islamic period in rock inscriptions of the western Arabian peninsula.[3]
In some rare forms of dyslexia, a person suffering from dyslexia has the ability to read and/or write, but only in the styles of mirror writing.[citation needed]

Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci
Inventor: Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci
Leonardo daVinci image courtesy Institute and Museum of the History of Science
Criteria: Architect, sculptor, engineer, painter, scientist, and inventor.
Birth: April 15, 1452 in the small town of Vinci, in Tuscany, Italy
Death: May 2, 1519 in Cloux, near Amboise, France
Nationality: Italian
Leonardo was born in the small town of Vinci, in Tuscany, near Florence. He was the son of a wealthy Florentine notary and a peasant woman. In the mid-1460s the family settled in Florence, where Leonardo was given the best education that Florence, a major intellectual and artistic center of Italy, could offer. He rapidly advanced socially and intellectually. He was handsome, persuasive in conversation, and a fine musician and improviser. About 1466 he was apprenticed as a garzone (studio boy) to Andrea del Verrocchio, the leading Florentine painter and sculptor of his day. In Verrocchio's workshop Leonardo was introduced to many activities, from the painting of altarpieces and panel pictures to the creation of large sculptural projects in marble and bronze. In 1472 he was entered in the painter's guild of Florence, and in 1476 he was still considered Verrocchio's assistant. In Verrocchio's Baptism of Christ (1470?, Uffizi, Florence), the kneeling angel at the left of the painting is by Leonardo.
In 1478 Leonardo became an independent master. His first commission, to paint an altarpiece for the chapel of the Palazzo Vecchio, the Florentine town hall, was never executed. His first large painting, The Adoration of the Magi (begun 1481, Uffizi), left unfinished, was ordered in 1481 for the Monastery of San Donato a Scopeto, Florence. Other works ascribed to his youth are the so-called Benois Madonna (1478?, Hermitage, Saint Petersburg), the portrait Ginevra de' Benci (1474?, National Gallery, Washington, D.C.), and the unfinished Saint Jerome (1481?, Pinacoteca, Vatican).
About 1482 Leonardo entered the service of the duke of Milan, Ludovico Sforza, having written the duke an astonishing letter in which he stated that he could build portable bridges; that he knew the techniques of constructing bombardments and of making cannons; that he could build ships as well as armored vehicles, catapults, and other war machines; and that he could execute sculpture in marble, bronze, and clay. He served as principal engineer in the duke's numerous military enterprises and was active also as an architect. In addition, he assisted the Italian mathematician Luca Pacioli in the celebrated work Divina Proportione (1509).
Evidence indicates that Leonardo had apprentices and pupils in Milan, for whom he probably wrote the various texts later compiled as Treatise on Painting (1651; translated 1956). The most important of his own paintings during the early Milan period was The Virgin of the Rocks, two versions of which exist (1483-1485, Louvre, Paris; 1490s to 1506-1508, National Gallery, London); he worked on the compositions for a long time, as was his custom, seemingly unwilling to finish what he had begun. From 1495 to 1497 Leonardo labored on his masterpiece, The Last Supper, a mural in the refectory of the Monastery of Santa Maria delle Grazie, Milan. Unfortunately, his experimental use of oil on dry plaster (on what was the thin outer wall of a space designed for serving food) was technically unsound, and by 1500 its deterioration had begun. Since 1726 attempts have been made, unsuccessfully, to restore it; a concerted restoration and conservation program, making use of the latest technology, was begun in 1977 and is reversing some of the damage. Although much of the original surface is gone, the majesty of the composition and the penetrating characterization of the figures give a fleeting vision of its vanished splendor.
During his long stay in Milan, Leonardo also produced other paintings and drawings (most of which have been lost), theater designs, architectural drawings, and models for the dome of Milan Cathedral. His largest commission was for a colossal bronze monument to Francesco Sforza, father of Ludovico, in the courtyard of Castello Sforzesco. In December 1499, however, the Sforza family was driven from Milan by French forces; Leonardo left the statue unfinished (it was destroyed by French archers, who used the terra cotta model as a target) and he returned to Florence in 1500.
In 1502 Leonardo entered the service of Cesare Borgia, duke of Romagna and son and chief general of Pope Alexander VI. In his capacity as the duke's chief architect and engineer, Leonardo supervised work on the fortresses of the papal territories in central Italy. In 1503 he was a member of a commission of artists who were to decide on the proper location for the David (1501-1504, Accademia, Florence), the famous colossal marble statue by the Italian sculptor Michelangelo, and he also served as an engineer in the war against Pisa. Toward the end of the year Leonardo began to design a decoration for the great hall of the Palazzo Vecchio. The subject was the Battle of Anghiari, a Florentine victory in its war with Pisa. He made many drawings for the decoration and completed a full-size cartoon, or sketch, in 1505, but he never finished the wall painting. The cartoon itself was destroyed in the 17th century, and the composition survives only in copies, of which the most famous is the one by the Flemish painter Peter Paul Rubens (1615?, Louvre).
During this second Florentine period, Leonardo painted several portraits, but the only one that survives is the famous Mona Lisa (1503-1506, Louvre). One of the most celebrated portraits ever painted, it is also known as La Gioconda, after the presumed name of the woman's husband. Leonardo seems to have had a special affection for the picture, for he took it with him on all of his subsequent travels.
In 1506 Leonardo again went to Milan, at the summons of its French governor, Charles d'Amboise. The following year he was named court painter to King Louis XII of France, who was then residing in Milan. For the next six years Leonardo divided his time between Milan and Florence, where he often visited his half brothers and half sisters and looked after his inheritance. In Milan he continued his engineering projects and worked on an equestrian figure for a monument to Gian Giacomo Trivulzio, commander of the French forces in the city; although the project was not completed, drawings and studies have been preserved. From 1514 to 1516 Leonardo lived in Rome under the patronage of Pope Leo X. He was housed in the Palazzo Belvedere in the Vatican and seems to have been occupied principally with scientific experimentation. In 1516 he traveled to France to enter the service of King Francis I. He spent his last years at the Château de Cloux, near Amboise, where he died.
Although Leonardo produced a relatively small number of paintings, many of which remained unfinished, he was nevertheless an extraordinarily innovative and influential artist. During his early years, his style closely paralleled that of Verrocchio, but he gradually moved away from his teacher's stiff, tight, and somewhat rigid treatment of figures to develop a more evocative and atmospheric handling of composition. The early painting The Adoration of the Magi introduced a new approach to composition, in which the main figures are grouped in the foreground, while the background consists of distant views of imaginary ruins and battle scenes.
Leonardo's stylistic innovations are even more apparent in The Last Supper, in which he represented a traditional theme in an entirely new way. Instead of showing the 12 apostles as individual figures, he grouped them in dynamic compositional units of three, framing the figure of Christ, who is isolated in the center of the picture. Seated before a pale distant landscape seen through a rectangular opening in the wall, Christ—who is about to announce that one of those present will betray him—represents a calm nucleus while the others respond with animated gestures. In the monumentality of the scene and the weightiness of the figures, Leonardo reintroduced a style pioneered more than a generation earlier by Masaccio, the father of Florentine painting.
The Mona Lisa, Leonardo's most famous work, is as well known for its mastery of technical innovations as for the mysteriousness of its legendary smiling subject. This work is a consummate example of two techniques—sfumato and chiaroscuro—of which Leonardo was one of the first great masters. Sfumato is characterized by subtle, almost infinitesimal transitions between color areas, creating a delicately atmospheric haze or smoky effect; it is especially evident in the delicate gauzy robes worn by the sitter and in her enigmatic smile. Chiaroscuro is the technique of modeling and defining forms through contrasts of light and shadow; the sensitive hands of the sitter are portrayed with a luminous modulation of light and shade, while color contrast is used only sparingly.
Leonardo was among the first to introduce atmospheric perspective into his landscape backgrounds, an especially notable characteristic of his paintings. The chief masters of the High Renaissance in Florence, including Raphael, Andrea del Sarto, and Fra Bartolommeo, all learned from Leonardo; he completely transformed the school of Milan; and at Parma, the artistic development of Correggio was given direction by Leonardo's work.
Leonardo's many extant drawings, which reveal his brilliant draftsmanship and his mastery of the anatomy of humans, animals, and plant life, may be found in the principal European collections. The largest group is at Windsor Castle in England. Probably his most famous drawing is the magnificent self-portrait in old age (1510?-1513?, Biblioteca Reale, Turin, Italy).
Because none of Leonardo's sculptural projects was brought to completion, his approach to three-dimensional art can only be judged from his drawings. The same strictures apply to his architecture: None of his building projects was actually carried out as he devised them. In his architectural drawings, however, he demonstrates mastery in the use of massive forms, a clarity of expression, and especially a deep understanding of ancient Roman sources.
As a scientist Leonardo towered above all his contemporaries. His scientific theories, like his artistic innovations, were based on careful observation and precise documentation. He understood, better than anyone of his century or the next, the importance of precise scientific observation. Unfortunately, just as he frequently failed to bring to conclusion artistic projects, he never completed his planned treatises on a variety of scientific subjects. His theories are contained in numerous notebooks, most of which were written in mirror script. Because they were not easily decipherable, Leonardo's findings were not disseminated in his own lifetime; had they been published, they would have revolutionized the science of the 16th century. Leonardo actually anticipated many discoveries of modern times. In anatomy he studied the circulation of the blood and the action of the eye. He made discoveries in meteorology and geology, learned the effect of the moon on the tides, foreshadowed modern conceptions of continent formation, and surmised the nature of fossil shells. He was among the originators of the science of hydraulics and probably devised the hydrometer; his scheme for the canalization of rivers still has practical value. He invented a large number of ingenious machines, many potentially useful, among them an underwater diving suit. His flying devices, although not practicable, embodied sound principles of aerodynamics.

Among life's Pearls,
There are Cherished Friends
God knew there would be times
We'd need words of cheer,
Someone to praise us
Or brush a tear away.
He must have known we'd need to share
The joy of "little things"
In order to appreciate
The happiness life brings.
I think He knew our troubled hearts
Would sometimes throb with pain,
At trials and misfortunes,
Or goals we can't attain.
He knew we'd need the comfort
Of an understanding heart
To give us strength and courage
To make a fresh, new start.
He knew we'd need companionship,
Unselfish... lasting... true,
And so The Great Spirit answered the heart's great need
With cherished friends... like you!
- Author Unknown -
Genuine and rare,
The one that we call friendship
Has worth beyond compare.

another amazing story from a friend
How the Man Found His Mate
Each tribe has its own stories. Most of them deal with the same subjects, differing only in immaterial particulars.
Instead of squirrels in the timber, the Black-feet are sure they were prairie-dogs that OLD-man roasted that time when he made the mountain lion long and lean. The Chippewas and Crees insist that they were squirrels that were cooked and eaten, but one tribe is essentially a forest-people and the other lives on the plains - hence the difference.Some tribes will not wear the feathers of the owl, nor will they have anything to do with that bird, while others use his feathers freely.The forest Indian wears the soft-soled moccasin, while his brother of the plains covers the bottoms of his footwear with rawhide, because of the cactus and prickly-pear, most likely.lodge skin to reach all about the circle at the bottom, because of the wind.One night in War Eagle's lodge, Other- person asked: "Why don't the Bear have a tail, grandfather?War Eagle laughed and said: "Our people do not know why, but we believe he was made that way at the beginning, although I have heard men of other tribes say that the Bear lost his tail while fishing.I don't know how true it is, but I have been told that a long time ago the Bear was fishing in the winter, and the Fox asked him if he had any luck."'No,' replied the Bear, 'I can't catch a fish.'"'Well,' said the Fox, 'if you will stick your long tail down through this hole in the ice, and sit very still, I am sure you will catch a fish.'"So the Bear stuck his tail through the hole in the ice, and the Fox told him to sit still, till he called him; then the Fox went off, pretending to hunt along the bank. It was mighty cold weather, and the water froze all about the Bear's tail, yet he sat still, waiting for the Fox to call him. Yes, the Bear sat so still and so long that his tail was frozen in the ice, but he didn't know it. When the Fox thought it was time, he called:"'Hey, Bear, come here quick - quick! I have a Rabbit in this hole, and I want you to help me dig him out.' Ho! The Bear tried to get up, but he couldn't."'Hey, Bear, come here - there are two Rabbits in this hole,' called the Fox."The Bear pulled so hard to get away from the ice, that he broke his tail off short to his body. Then the Fox ran away laughing at the Bear."I hardly believe that story, but once I heard an old man who visited my father from the country far east of here, tell it. I remembered it. But I can't say that I know it is true, as I can the others."When I told you the story of how OLD-man made the world over, after the water had made its war upon it, I told you how the first man and woman were made. There is another story of how the first man found his wife, and I will tell you that."After OLD-man had made a man to look like himself, he left him to live with the Wolves, and went away. The man had a hard time of it, with no clothes to keep him warm, and no wife to help him, so he went out looking for OLD-man."It took the man a long time to find OLD- man's lodge, but as soon as he got there he went right in and said:"'OLD-man, you have made me and left me to live with the Wolf-people. I don't like them at all. They give me scraps of meat to eat and won't build a fire. They have wives, but I don't want a Wolf-woman. I think you should take better care of me.''Well,' replied OLD-man, 'I was just waiting for you to come to see me. I have things fixed for you. You go down this river until you come to a steep hillside. There you will see a lodge. Then I will leave you to do the rest. Go!'that grew near the river. The next morning he started down the river again, looking for the steep hillsid

Gina' s Story
This is a story about a snail and a Teddy Bear that meet in an internet setting through a forest of imagination and they are looking for each other but do not even know it and they fall in love over a chat site called "SPACEBOOK" ( an ori GINA l word made up by me as far as i know) so they meet and some very amazing things start to happen and then when they actually SEE each other they are VERY attracted to each other and they live happily ever after but there is a lot more to the story this is just a tease and i was going to transfer files that i had on another computer these stories were already written but i lost them all when i restored it so it may take longer than once thought but eventually
anyway this is going to be awesome
This story is dedicated to all the young imaginative readers that are hanging on every readers word with enthusiasm and wonder like my good friend Allison!

NO ONE rides FREE
Imagine that
names are irrelevant
sometimes we sleep for days at a time not knowing which direction to go and waiting and pondering and praying
I think Cheryl Crow sang it best
gonna soak up the sun while ITS still FREE
Every time I feel lame i am looking up! so lighten up! live free die free and don't worry be happy live and let live
I think Metallic a sang it best JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE JUDGED YOURSELF
Do not think you are better than someone else FOR ANY REASON you are NO better than ME but I am no better than you we all have our unique qualities and blessings but never underestimate a CHILD OF GOD!
we are all here for a reason so lets live harmoniously when possible or just stay the HELL away from each other if harmony is not in the cards I just do not understand why we put ourselves through somethings and i am just as guilty as ANYONE for the self inflicted scars that i carry! BUT so are YOU!

Mark Twain
* Born: 30 November 1835
* Birthplace: Florida, Missouri
* Died: 21 April 1910 (heart failure)
* Best Known As: The author of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn
Name at birth: Samuel Langhorne Clemens
Mark Twain is on nearly everyone's list of all-time great American authors. Twain was raised in Hannibal, Missouri and as a young man held a series of jobs which included work as a printer's apprentice, a Mississippi riverboat pilot, and a newspaperman in Nevada and San Francisco. He moved gradually from journalism to travel writing and then to fiction, aided by the success of his 1869 travel memoir The Innocents Abroad. His humorous tales of human nature, especially The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and Huckleberry Finn (1885), remain standard texts in high school and college literature classes. In his own day Twain was a tremendously popular figure and a celebrated public speaker who toured widely. Other Twain classics include Life on the Mississippi (1883) and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889) and the short story The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County (1867).
Twain was born and died in years in which Halley's Comet passed by Earth: 1835 and 1910... His pseudonym, Mark Twain, was taken from Mississippi riverboat terminology; it's a measure of depth... Twain married the former Olivia Langdon in 1870; she died in 1904, and the melancholy tone of Twain's later writings is often attributed to his depression over her death.

wikipedia
Leonardo da Vinci is famous for having written most of his personal notes in mirror, only using standard writing if he intended his texts to be read by others. There are two popular theories on why he did this. Leonardo da Vinci was left-handed, causing the ink to smudge easily if he wrote in standard writing. He may also have wanted to protect his ideas from theft or hide them from the Roman Catholic Church (with whom his research practices sometimes collided). However, the latter idea, popular among conspiracy theorists, is highly unlikely: it is (and was even at the time) clear, even to a child, that the text in question could be easily read "backwards" (either directly or through its reflection, such as in a mirror). The true purpose of this practice thus remains unknown. A third theory is that he taught himself to write: given the propensity of children to start writing from the bottom right hand corner of a page[citation needed], this would have led him to produce mirror writing.
Wikipedia in Leonardo's style.
Matteo Zaccolini apparently wrote in mirror script his original four volume treatise on optics, color, and perspective in the early 1600s; he was apparently dependent on Leonardo's text.
Mirror writing calligraphy was popular in the Ottoman Empire during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries among the Bektashi order, where it often carried mystical associations.[3] The origins of this mirror writing tradition may date to the pre-Islamic period in rock inscriptions of the western Arabian peninsula.[3]
In some rare forms of dyslexia, a person suffering from dyslexia has the ability to read and/or write, but only in the styles of mirror writing.[citation needed]

Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci
Inventor: Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci
Leonardo daVinci image courtesy Institute and Museum of the History of Science
Criteria: Architect, sculptor, engineer, painter, scientist, and inventor.
Birth: April 15, 1452 in the small town of Vinci, in Tuscany, Italy
Death: May 2, 1519 in Cloux, near Amboise, France
Nationality: Italian
Leonardo was born in the small town of Vinci, in Tuscany, near Florence. He was the son of a wealthy Florentine notary and a peasant woman. In the mid-1460s the family settled in Florence, where Leonardo was given the best education that Florence, a major intellectual and artistic center of Italy, could offer. He rapidly advanced socially and intellectually. He was handsome, persuasive in conversation, and a fine musician and improviser. About 1466 he was apprenticed as a garzone (studio boy) to Andrea del Verrocchio, the leading Florentine painter and sculptor of his day. In Verrocchio's workshop Leonardo was introduced to many activities, from the painting of altarpieces and panel pictures to the creation of large sculptural projects in marble and bronze. In 1472 he was entered in the painter's guild of Florence, and in 1476 he was still considered Verrocchio's assistant. In Verrocchio's Baptism of Christ (1470?, Uffizi, Florence), the kneeling angel at the left of the painting is by Leonardo.
In 1478 Leonardo became an independent master. His first commission, to paint an altarpiece for the chapel of the Palazzo Vecchio, the Florentine town hall, was never executed. His first large painting, The Adoration of the Magi (begun 1481, Uffizi), left unfinished, was ordered in 1481 for the Monastery of San Donato a Scopeto, Florence. Other works ascribed to his youth are the so-called Benois Madonna (1478?, Hermitage, Saint Petersburg), the portrait Ginevra de' Benci (1474?, National Gallery, Washington, D.C.), and the unfinished Saint Jerome (1481?, Pinacoteca, Vatican).
About 1482 Leonardo entered the service of the duke of Milan, Ludovico Sforza, having written the duke an astonishing letter in which he stated that he could build portable bridges; that he knew the techniques of constructing bombardments and of making cannons; that he could build ships as well as armored vehicles, catapults, and other war machines; and that he could execute sculpture in marble, bronze, and clay. He served as principal engineer in the duke's numerous military enterprises and was active also as an architect. In addition, he assisted the Italian mathematician Luca Pacioli in the celebrated work Divina Proportione (1509).
Evidence indicates that Leonardo had apprentices and pupils in Milan, for whom he probably wrote the various texts later compiled as Treatise on Painting (1651; translated 1956). The most important of his own paintings during the early Milan period was The Virgin of the Rocks, two versions of which exist (1483-1485, Louvre, Paris; 1490s to 1506-1508, National Gallery, London); he worked on the compositions for a long time, as was his custom, seemingly unwilling to finish what he had begun. From 1495 to 1497 Leonardo labored on his masterpiece, The Last Supper, a mural in the refectory of the Monastery of Santa Maria delle Grazie, Milan. Unfortunately, his experimental use of oil on dry plaster (on what was the thin outer wall of a space designed for serving food) was technically unsound, and by 1500 its deterioration had begun. Since 1726 attempts have been made, unsuccessfully, to restore it; a concerted restoration and conservation program, making use of the latest technology, was begun in 1977 and is reversing some of the damage. Although much of the original surface is gone, the majesty of the composition and the penetrating characterization of the figures give a fleeting vision of its vanished splendor.
During his long stay in Milan, Leonardo also produced other paintings and drawings (most of which have been lost), theater designs, architectural drawings, and models for the dome of Milan Cathedral. His largest commission was for a colossal bronze monument to Francesco Sforza, father of Ludovico, in the courtyard of Castello Sforzesco. In December 1499, however, the Sforza family was driven from Milan by French forces; Leonardo left the statue unfinished (it was destroyed by French archers, who used the terra cotta model as a target) and he returned to Florence in 1500.
In 1502 Leonardo entered the service of Cesare Borgia, duke of Romagna and son and chief general of Pope Alexander VI. In his capacity as the duke's chief architect and engineer, Leonardo supervised work on the fortresses of the papal territories in central Italy. In 1503 he was a member of a commission of artists who were to decide on the proper location for the David (1501-1504, Accademia, Florence), the famous colossal marble statue by the Italian sculptor Michelangelo, and he also served as an engineer in the war against Pisa. Toward the end of the year Leonardo began to design a decoration for the great hall of the Palazzo Vecchio. The subject was the Battle of Anghiari, a Florentine victory in its war with Pisa. He made many drawings for the decoration and completed a full-size cartoon, or sketch, in 1505, but he never finished the wall painting. The cartoon itself was destroyed in the 17th century, and the composition survives only in copies, of which the most famous is the one by the Flemish painter Peter Paul Rubens (1615?, Louvre).
During this second Florentine period, Leonardo painted several portraits, but the only one that survives is the famous Mona Lisa (1503-1506, Louvre). One of the most celebrated portraits ever painted, it is also known as La Gioconda, after the presumed name of the woman's husband. Leonardo seems to have had a special affection for the picture, for he took it with him on all of his subsequent travels.
In 1506 Leonardo again went to Milan, at the summons of its French governor, Charles d'Amboise. The following year he was named court painter to King Louis XII of France, who was then residing in Milan. For the next six years Leonardo divided his time between Milan and Florence, where he often visited his half brothers and half sisters and looked after his inheritance. In Milan he continued his engineering projects and worked on an equestrian figure for a monument to Gian Giacomo Trivulzio, commander of the French forces in the city; although the project was not completed, drawings and studies have been preserved. From 1514 to 1516 Leonardo lived in Rome under the patronage of Pope Leo X. He was housed in the Palazzo Belvedere in the Vatican and seems to have been occupied principally with scientific experimentation. In 1516 he traveled to France to enter the service of King Francis I. He spent his last years at the Château de Cloux, near Amboise, where he died.
Although Leonardo produced a relatively small number of paintings, many of which remained unfinished, he was nevertheless an extraordinarily innovative and influential artist. During his early years, his style closely paralleled that of Verrocchio, but he gradually moved away from his teacher's stiff, tight, and somewhat rigid treatment of figures to develop a more evocative and atmospheric handling of composition. The early painting The Adoration of the Magi introduced a new approach to composition, in which the main figures are grouped in the foreground, while the background consists of distant views of imaginary ruins and battle scenes.
Leonardo's stylistic innovations are even more apparent in The Last Supper, in which he represented a traditional theme in an entirely new way. Instead of showing the 12 apostles as individual figures, he grouped them in dynamic compositional units of three, framing the figure of Christ, who is isolated in the center of the picture. Seated before a pale distant landscape seen through a rectangular opening in the wall, Christ—who is about to announce that one of those present will betray him—represents a calm nucleus while the others respond with animated gestures. In the monumentality of the scene and the weightiness of the figures, Leonardo reintroduced a style pioneered more than a generation earlier by Masaccio, the father of Florentine painting.
The Mona Lisa, Leonardo's most famous work, is as well known for its mastery of technical innovations as for the mysteriousness of its legendary smiling subject. This work is a consummate example of two techniques—sfumato and chiaroscuro—of which Leonardo was one of the first great masters. Sfumato is characterized by subtle, almost infinitesimal transitions between color areas, creating a delicately atmospheric haze or smoky effect; it is especially evident in the delicate gauzy robes worn by the sitter and in her enigmatic smile. Chiaroscuro is the technique of modeling and defining forms through contrasts of light and shadow; the sensitive hands of the sitter are portrayed with a luminous modulation of light and shade, while color contrast is used only sparingly.
Leonardo was among the first to introduce atmospheric perspective into his landscape backgrounds, an especially notable characteristic of his paintings. The chief masters of the High Renaissance in Florence, including Raphael, Andrea del Sarto, and Fra Bartolommeo, all learned from Leonardo; he completely transformed the school of Milan; and at Parma, the artistic development of Correggio was given direction by Leonardo's work.
Leonardo's many extant drawings, which reveal his brilliant draftsmanship and his mastery of the anatomy of humans, animals, and plant life, may be found in the principal European collections. The largest group is at Windsor Castle in England. Probably his most famous drawing is the magnificent self-portrait in old age (1510?-1513?, Biblioteca Reale, Turin, Italy).
Because none of Leonardo's sculptural projects was brought to completion, his approach to three-dimensional art can only be judged from his drawings. The same strictures apply to his architecture: None of his building projects was actually carried out as he devised them. In his architectural drawings, however, he demonstrates mastery in the use of massive forms, a clarity of expression, and especially a deep understanding of ancient Roman sources.
As a scientist Leonardo towered above all his contemporaries. His scientific theories, like his artistic innovations, were based on careful observation and precise documentation. He understood, better than anyone of his century or the next, the importance of precise scientific observation. Unfortunately, just as he frequently failed to bring to conclusion artistic projects, he never completed his planned treatises on a variety of scientific subjects. His theories are contained in numerous notebooks, most of which were written in mirror script. Because they were not easily decipherable, Leonardo's findings were not disseminated in his own lifetime; had they been published, they would have revolutionized the science of the 16th century. Leonardo actually anticipated many discoveries of modern times. In anatomy he studied the circulation of the blood and the action of the eye. He made discoveries in meteorology and geology, learned the effect of the moon on the tides, foreshadowed modern conceptions of continent formation, and surmised the nature of fossil shells. He was among the originators of the science of hydraulics and probably devised the hydrometer; his scheme for the canalization of rivers still has practical value. He invented a large number of ingenious machines, many potentially useful, among them an underwater diving suit. His flying devices, although not practicable, embodied sound principles of aerodynamics.

Among life's Pearls,
There are Cherished Friends
God knew there would be times
We'd need words of cheer,
Someone to praise us
Or brush a tear away.
He must have known we'd need to share
The joy of "little things"
In order to appreciate
The happiness life brings.
I think He knew our troubled hearts
Would sometimes throb with pain,
At trials and misfortunes,
Or goals we can't attain.
He knew we'd need the comfort
Of an understanding heart
To give us strength and courage
To make a fresh, new start.
He knew we'd need companionship,
Unselfish... lasting... true,
And so The Great Spirit answered the heart's great need
With cherished friends... like you!
- Author Unknown -
Genuine and rare,
The one that we call friendship
Has worth beyond compare.

another amazing story from a friend
How the Man Found His Mate
Each tribe has its own stories. Most of them deal with the same subjects, differing only in immaterial particulars.
Instead of squirrels in the timber, the Black-feet are sure they were prairie-dogs that OLD-man roasted that time when he made the mountain lion long and lean. The Chippewas and Crees insist that they were squirrels that were cooked and eaten, but one tribe is essentially a forest-people and the other lives on the plains - hence the difference.Some tribes will not wear the feathers of the owl, nor will they have anything to do with that bird, while others use his feathers freely.The forest Indian wears the soft-soled moccasin, while his brother of the plains covers the bottoms of his footwear with rawhide, because of the cactus and prickly-pear, most likely.lodge skin to reach all about the circle at the bottom, because of the wind.One night in War Eagle's lodge, Other- person asked: "Why don't the Bear have a tail, grandfather?War Eagle laughed and said: "Our people do not know why, but we believe he was made that way at the beginning, although I have heard men of other tribes say that the Bear lost his tail while fishing.I don't know how true it is, but I have been told that a long time ago the Bear was fishing in the winter, and the Fox asked him if he had any luck."'No,' replied the Bear, 'I can't catch a fish.'"'Well,' said the Fox, 'if you will stick your long tail down through this hole in the ice, and sit very still, I am sure you will catch a fish.'"So the Bear stuck his tail through the hole in the ice, and the Fox told him to sit still, till he called him; then the Fox went off, pretending to hunt along the bank. It was mighty cold weather, and the water froze all about the Bear's tail, yet he sat still, waiting for the Fox to call him. Yes, the Bear sat so still and so long that his tail was frozen in the ice, but he didn't know it. When the Fox thought it was time, he called:"'Hey, Bear, come here quick - quick! I have a Rabbit in this hole, and I want you to help me dig him out.' Ho! The Bear tried to get up, but he couldn't."'Hey, Bear, come here - there are two Rabbits in this hole,' called the Fox."The Bear pulled so hard to get away from the ice, that he broke his tail off short to his body. Then the Fox ran away laughing at the Bear."I hardly believe that story, but once I heard an old man who visited my father from the country far east of here, tell it. I remembered it. But I can't say that I know it is true, as I can the others."When I told you the story of how OLD-man made the world over, after the water had made its war upon it, I told you how the first man and woman were made. There is another story of how the first man found his wife, and I will tell you that."After OLD-man had made a man to look like himself, he left him to live with the Wolves, and went away. The man had a hard time of it, with no clothes to keep him warm, and no wife to help him, so he went out looking for OLD-man."It took the man a long time to find OLD- man's lodge, but as soon as he got there he went right in and said:"'OLD-man, you have made me and left me to live with the Wolf-people. I don't like them at all. They give me scraps of meat to eat and won't build a fire. They have wives, but I don't want a Wolf-woman. I think you should take better care of me.''Well,' replied OLD-man, 'I was just waiting for you to come to see me. I have things fixed for you. You go down this river until you come to a steep hillside. There you will see a lodge. Then I will leave you to do the rest. Go!'that grew near the river. The next morning he started down the river again, looking for the steep hillsid
